Are you Intelligent or Patient?

Jack is looking at Anne, but Anne is looking at George. Jack is married, but George is not. Is a married person looking at an unmarried person?

A) Yes.

B) No.

C) Cannot be determined.

See this original source for the answer and explanation about how intelligent or patient you are. I will post in a comment what I answered.

    I said C. Therefore, I conclude that I am not patient :(

    I said C, too, after I sat for a long time thinking the answer was A. Then I changed my answer at the last second. I'm not sure what the conclusion to that is...

    My first choice is C. Then I read the explanation and I see that the real answer is A. I am not a very patient person on this problem.

    Good problem! You do have to be patient to determine the correct answer ;)
