Because they got high

J and his buddy J, while in a state of chemically-induced mellowness, try to figure out how high their apartment is off the ground.


J1: Well you could estimate the feet per floor and multiply it by 28.
J2: Well, I know we're approximately 2/3 of the way up the building, so I could just look up the height of the building.
J1: This would be a great interview question to see how someone would go about this problem.

(R looks up from his work on the other side of the room.)
R: Would you call that a top-down or bottom-up approach?
