Let's have a bit of fun!

You can ask any random question you want, maybe if you actually want the answer, or just to be very funny and random. You can also answer other people's questions if you want, and we'll see what we come up with!

I'll start:

1) How do they get the sweetcorn off the cob and into packets to freeze it? Do they have a special sweetcorn comb or something??

2) Who writes all the Sheffield Star headlines that are put up outside newsagents? Are they done by computer in a special handwriting font, or does someone actually write them out and photocopy them?

OK, let's have some fun! Start posting..

What purpose do head lice serve?

Does anyone have any other questions?

Headlice are a miracle of evolution.

They say that life on Earth started when a bolt of lightening hit a pool of water that contained various nutrients, well headlice begin their existance as dandruff.
People with fillings in their teeth and who wear glasses are perfect conductors for a phenomenon called "Invisible lightening" which strikes the arm of the specs, travels inwards and into the fillings, then from there it heads through the skull and into the scalp.
The tiny little gap between dandruff and scalp is effected in some way thats yet to be determined by science and time travels faster in that miniscule area, Evloution races forward and... voi-laaaaaar, head lice.

Is this a question?

I've got another one - Why do some traffic lights have grills on them? What's the point?

Usually seen at more complicated junctions, they're to stop you from accidentally (or otherwise) reading the wrong set of lights (and potentially causing an accident). They act a bit like blinkers - but placed on the object rather than the viewer - shielding all but the intended from their view. :)

My question: I want to know what wasps are for, too. Also, I wonder if a bee or a wasp would win in a 1:1 fight?

It's so you can cook your tea on them if they stay red for a very long time.

That's clever! Although most of them just block the light for anyone who tries to look at them!

Why do kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

When they're set up properly, the person at the front of the queue should have just as good a view of the lights as they would if the lights were without a grille. :)
The shrouds that lights have is to stop the sunlight from hitting the lens and making it appear that the lights is on (for example, green) when it isn't (e.g. is actually red!). Even if the sun can't directly hit the lens the shrouds are useful to increase contrast and thus visibility with the aim of reducing misinterpretations/not seeing the lights at all, therefore (hopefully) reducing accidents! :)

Say that again...?

To keep their ears warm?

There's Smell, Feel, Taste, and Sight.

Why are lots of well-known people known buy their surnames (Mozart, Hitler etc), and not their first names?

there are exceptions--with the Bach family who were all musicians, you have to distinguish, say, Johann Sebastian Bach and Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach.

And in the past, many were known only by one name anyway, such as Attila the Hun (and Alaric, also a Hun), and King Alfred (who didn't acquire his title the Great until the 17th century).

My question: How do they get miniature sailing ships into bottles???

Where do we go for all our camera needs when Jessops closes all its shops?

What with our increasing dependence on cybernetic devices, computers and so on, we will all mutate into Borg.

Question: How could Noah have packed into the Ark all the creatures the writers of Genesis did not know about (e.g. the Antipodean ones), as well as things like microbes, viruses, spores, diatoms and other microscopic things of which they were completely ignorant?

If that's the answer ...is the question.....Why do Essex girls have knees???

Why have I forgotten what question I was going to ask?

Here's my old old thread. I was wondering how it was doing! (Not too well I see.) Oh well.

Answer: Surprising at it might seem, he didn't (despite living to 900 years or whatever it was...) It's a made-up story!

Question: Why do male and female clothes have buttons on different sides?

Question: Why do male and female clothes have buttons on different sides?

So that men can unfasten their jackets while reaching for their swords and women can unfasten their blouses to breastfeed while holding a baby :D

Why do we have little toes?

I always thought ladies clothes fastened the opposite way because it was the maids who did up all the buttons.

Why is there always a teaspoon left in the bottom of the washing up bowl when you empty the water out?

Do they live with Donkeys?
Would keep their feet warm :confused:

What an enlightening thread this has turned out to be!! Until tonight I would never have thought of donkeys wearing all our cast off odd socks...and this answer has been there under our noses all along!!
Do you think the donkeys wear the socks on the beach too while giving children rides....or would they make their hooves sweat??

Oh no! They would stop their feet getting too worn by the sand! If they rubbed them with oil first the warmth would keep their feet sooooooooooo soft

Would this be a good spa treatment?

Do Donkeys go to Spas? If they did would they let them in??
