I have been looking for the right answer for some time now:
 
"There was a girl who's mother died. During her mom's funeral she saw a guy for the first time. She fell in love with the guy. The next day the girl killed her sister. Why did she kill her sister."
 
Would be grateful for some logical answer (?!)
Thx

It's not so much that there is a logical answers..
 
It's more, that if you're a psychopath you'd be quick to answer she killed her sister in hopes of meeting the man again at her sisters funeral..
 
Consider yourself sane if you couldn't guess the answer yourself.. (The 'riddle' seems to have some history to it.. Apparantly, though I cannot vouch for my sources, it has been asked to numerous psychopaths who all quickly guessed the answer. Whereas 'normal' people are usually left guessing..)

I must admit that I was never even close to that 'answer', if you want to call it so.
Thanks.

it took a bit of searching, but I finally found a reliable source..

That's to say the riddle may be a riddle, but the backstory of it being a psych-test is a hoax..

Does this mean I'm insane?
