Well, I think that the answer is "Yes", but I had been leaning towards "No actually, but, maybe, if I think about it, longer, I can come up with something else, you know, like a 'third alternative', or something like that, so hang on to it, (real tight!) and I'll get back to you, on that, "quetion", real soon, ok?

If you tell someone that you are going to "Fix there clock", do you?

Why are guys so often stereotyped as the "butt-pickers", when as many females as males do this?

In the great orchards of cigarette trees, the males have traditionally been the "butt-pickers", often picking 20 bushels or more of "butts" a day. But since the 1960's, the women's libers have demanded to pick butts for equal pay. The women now can pick up to 30 bushels of "butts" a day, and they get the same pay as the guys who pick 20 bushels.

Did I spell "bushels" correctly?

Not really, I had heard it was "El Bush"!

Is Mr. Robin Parsons...

A) A retired Janitor?

C) Both of the above?

B) A retarded Janitor?

Hmmm, well, it can't be (A) because he has feet, not tires. It can't be (B) because he was never tarded the first time. So, by the process of elimination, the answer must be (C).

If you read a "self-help" book written by somebody else, isn't it "help" instead of "self-help"?
 
  • #257
No, because all the help, in the form of your money, goes to the author.

Is education a zero-sum game?

Originally asked by FZ+

Is education a zero-sum game?

Well yes, for 'sum', like myself, it amounts to nothing more then an "education", which you cannot use, as per the (insert politico's name...No, NOT george!) others, like that, who have a 'sum of zero' in their educations, as to ensure that in the totality of the additions of the Merits of Education, all of the exceedingly high scores, that a site like this one would generate, would be completley offset to 'sum to zero' as per the above persons name, and their contribution to the total. Thankfully, that person does NOT post here!

If you drink alcohol that is only 7%, does that mean you only get 7% drunk?

No, if you drink enough of any kind of beer, you'll get 42% drunk and collapse.

Why do people behave differently when they are drunk?
