Don't tell me your age---but the following math works!

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway---but your waiter may know!

3 {7 L* I: D( o, T* _5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1758... ; If you haven't, add 1757.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born;  

9 m+ M& ~; Q( H! d/ |& g, e无聊，5和6都是问生日的，和一开始的“Don't tell me your age”自相矛盾。
" y% |6 h; S; Z; p8 ?输入了生日，加加减减一圈，最后得出生日，毫无意义。
+ K& s! v- }- G9 T4 p8 h如果不问5和6，也能算出生日，我佩服你。
