GAME: Stupid Question, Stupid Answer Thread

Post by Kahrey »

This is kinda a game....

I start by asking a stupid (or meaningless, unanswerable) question, and then the next person answers the question and asks a stupid one of their own. then the next person does the same, etc.

Ook....

Q: If all the nations are in debt, where did all the money go?

Because airplane wings was already used (and everyone knows a fly w/o wings is called a Walk).

Why can’t a vampire just use sun screen?

Because it is the only word they know.

Why do you have to wash your bath towels? Aren't you clean when you use them?

They all wave.

Why do they call left-handed people Southpaws? ( I actually know the answer to this, i just couldn't think of anything else.


P.S. Kahrey, go to bed, it is late.

That's due to the strange wonders of the English language. :P

this is obviously a bull-sh1t question. :hot:

Q: Why do some people unroll their toilet paper from the top rather than the bottom?

because you can use the extra 3 inches of height if you don't have to keep the end of the paper within reach of your bull-sh1t.

Q: how much sh1t would a bull-sh1t sh1t, if a bull-sh1t could sh1t bull?
