Great riddle!
Here's a riddle for you brainy fish lovers. I describe to you a situation, and you have to guess what happened for the man to be in that situation. You can ask as many questions as you like, as long as it can be answered with yes/no.
Here we go: There is a blind man in a restaurant. He orders a plate of seagull meat. He takes a mouthful, then commits suicide.
Any ideas?

Re: Great riddle!
Did the man like the seagull meat? Did the man put something in the meat? Did the man have a recent traumatic experience?

Re: Great riddle!
OK, I'll answer with yes, no or irrelevant. Irrelevant doesn't mean it was a dumb question, far from it, but it means I don't really know and it doesn't matter for the story, so don't focus on that or you'll be on the wrong track. Here's my answers:

Re: Great riddle!
Slow down, you're too good. You're going to find this in 2 seconds. My friends took something like 2 days when we were on a trip together. They hated me in the end, as I always refused to tell them the answer. They did find it! OK, here's some answers.

No, but please paraphrase that question a lot, you might be very close if you change a couple of words (the end of the comparative complement, if you're good at grammar).

Mmmh, please rephrase slightly. If by that you mean is he in the habit of eating people, then the answer is no. Worth digging on this one.
