Who would win in a fight Jack or Ronald McDonald or Wendy or the Taco Bell Dog?

Ronald McDonald could kick some anus with those giant shoes of his, plus if he got into trouble he could call the Hamburgler or those things that look like mops.

How would life be different if our thumbs were on the outside?

they are on the outside, the real question is what if they were sewed onto our coats?

Sure it would. Imagine your wife yelling at you to "take out the trash, and bring the thumbs in while you're at it...". Guess that's not all that different, after all.

Edit : beat to the punch by the little blue man.

This is a brilliant idea. This way we could hitch rides without have to lift a finger.

a very valid quetion, as most Americans have graduated from teacup-sized to soup-bowl-sized butts in the last three decades.

Which brings me to a related quetion.. if a woman's bra size is a T-cup, why is her bosom size more like a couple of gallons than two teensy half-pints?

Because 12-year old boys choose the names for women's underwear...

Also, related quetion: Since A (avocado), B (baseball), C (cantalope) and D (dog) cup sizes are so descriptive, why don't jock straps come in letter sizes? :bugeye:
 
  • #1,728
Because men are not classified by their jockstrap, but by the size of their shoes

Jesus Freak, get back here! You forgot to ask a quetion! :cry: We've worked too long and hard to keep this game going to see it end here. :cry:

Why do hot dogs come in packages of 12 and buns in packages of 8?
 
  • #1,731
It's to keep a cycle of purchase going. If you buy 12 hot dogs, and 8 buns, then you'll run out of buns and be forced to buy more before you can finish the hot dogs, but then you'll have surplus buns and require more hot dogs. Here is where the theory stumbles, as the next purchase will leave you with sufficient hotdogs to fill the buns, but I'd wager it relies on someone dropping one, or snacking on a lone hotdog late at night when no other food is readily avaliable.

Is work a gas? (I'm basing this on the fact that it expands to fill the space you have to do it)
