Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
cause he's a fictional character. It's not supposed to make any sense.

Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?
cause we think that it's a contact problem rather than low batteries

Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough?
cause we're stupid and keep paying these fees instead of dumping our banks for local ones

What is the speed of darkness?
(the absence of photons) it is not a constant but rather relative to the observers p.o.v.

Why is it that people say they 'slept like a baby' when babies wake up every two hours?

statement that makes emphasis on the quality/peacefulness of the sleep


If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?

Did you ever stop and wonder......
many times ...understand the concept "traveling without moving"


Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, 'I think I'll squeeze these pink dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?'
this makes no sense whatsoever, all mammals are based on the same principal,
understanding mammary glands is pure instinct


Who was the first person to say, 'See that chicken there... I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta its bum.'
*See statement above, eggs have/are mostly protein.

Why do toasters always have a setting so high that could burn the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?
You are talking about cheap chinese walmart toasters,
my Dualit toaster works great; higher settings are for frozen stuff


Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer?
frost

Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their bum when they ask where the bathroom is?
manners

Why does your Obstetrician, Gynaecologist leave the room when you get undressed if they are going to look up there anyway?
again, manners

Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs!
again, they're fictional characters

If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?
a waste of time and resources to justify the failed
public and private education system

mineral oil

yes, google philosophy

ok

yes, they are phonetic symbols but symbols have shape,
anyone understands shape


Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?
it's your foul breath

*******************************************

I'm not sure what this question means, but I figure:

– The average year round earth surface temperature is 14° C. That's 287 kelvin, or 57.2° F.

So using this globel mean temp. of 57.2 as a base, and a zero degrees F as a refrence for the exercise, the temp. tomorrow will be - 57.2 or 57.2 degrees below zero F....no?

No, no NO!! I CANNOT let this stand!  Grin

T1 = O degrees F which is 255k.   The statement "twice as cold" while it sounds like a dippy word game, actually means those atomic vibrations we quantify as temperature, are going to be halved on the next day.  Therefore the Kelvin temperature is the one to divide by 2.  T2 = 255K/2 = 127.5K.  Converting that back to degrees F, tomorrow's temperature will be -230F.  

Take THAT, mr. questions-you-can't-answer sammy the spambot!  I win.  Cool

Logic 1a.  A self referential statement.  I much prefer the old catechism question, "Now then father, can God make a rock so big that he cannot lift it?"
