13 -> 31
14 -> 41
95 -> 59
62 -> 26

Write them together - 31415926
Or 3,1415926. It's pi. The next numbers are 5 and 3. So:
53 -> 35

Actually I'm surprised that it's correct. I don't understand the logic behind changing the order of figures =/
So it's my turn now?

  Woah, that was... just... what the hell? I'm surprised there was a person crazy enough to solve it so fast.
  You know that's one hell of an interesting shop.
  It's GaS now, right?

Hm... This is my first time so excuse me if the riddle is stupid or you've heard it before. And my English is so-so, sorry for that too =/

Russian novelist Yury Olesha wasn't rich and had a lot of money problems in his last years. When he was asked to characterize himself, he answered using the title of the world-famous novella and adding to it "of debt".
So what was his answer?

Well, at least you guessed that right)
It's not Olesha's work.
