Taking a guess and simply that as I truelly agree with mike on the 4 syllable words being preapproved by WishGa...

would the answer be Pyrex?

Why is it that you don't crave sweets until you are on a diet and can't have them?]:|

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Diet Demons, the dirty little rats get into your brain a start messin with your beta endorphins.

Strangely enough, protien in 4 doses throughout the day will confuse them. Also a 1/2 of a small baked potato at bedtime upsets their stomach.

Mike

How come cats get 9 lives and the rest of us only 1?

because they don't know how to use their first life decently, and keep trying to get killed...and us as humans, can escape most anything?

sorry no potatoes...to many carbs...yep another one of "those People" lost 50 this way last year, time to lose some more...lol

Do dill pickles really get rid of the sweet tooth and why do they?

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Polytetrafluroethene= teflon(nonstick) cookware....pyrex is some kind of borosilcate though the full name escapes me even though i have visted the largest boron mine is the US twice.....college has made me forget everything


why is that the more educated people become the dumber they get?

It is one of Murphy's Laws. You should continue and get the most education possible...this is where the law comes into effect...the more you get the less brain you have to think with, eventually your brain is full and you are unable to think anymore...TAAAADDDAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Next question: Why is it that you get the notice from your doctor that you need to call and talk to him about your recent blood results, the day before you have your doctor's appointment?

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

What the?????? JQW official warning mate. One more and you will have to contribute to the other trivia thread.

This close to being bounced out...

Now back to trivia for dummies...

Neeexxxxxxxttttt


"What dish would you get if order 'soup of the day'?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

wish-ga that is a tough one, would it be salad?

what is the reason why we talk about fish here on fishprofiles?

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Soup comes in a bowl, not a dish.

Or is a bowl a dish?
Could a dish be a bowl?
Is the soup made with fish?
I think I'd rather have fowl?

So many questions.
So little time.
Now I'm confused.
And I'm typing in ryme.

Help, Mike

Under what circumstances 1+1=3?

If one 1 is male and the other female.

We talk about fish
because if we talked about birds
we wouldn't know about plecos
and their extra long turds

It's happening again, Mike

But Mike, If the 1 male and 1 female happen to be guppies you end up with at least 35 the first month, then 70 the next month, and then 100 the third month, and say that they first 33 start breeding the fourth month, and you have equal males to females, you will have 130 (assuming the female only has about 30 a month though we know this is underestimated :%))and 17x30= 510+130 from mom (uh grandma)=640, then the next month the 2nd batch of fry start having fry to add to the 1st batches...so we have 640+510+510= 1660....oh heck 1+1 will never =3....he lost his mind up there...and so have i...next question...:%)

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

IRK! I always get the math questions wrong.

Why, when I started going bald, did it seem the hair that left my head sprouted elsewhere?

Bald Mike

Where in the rhyme does it say that Humpty Dumpty was indeed an egg?

Mike it's isn't that you are going bald...you just need to quit tweezing, the other parts of your body where the hair is growing...because as you tweeze your hair from those places it's pulling it out of your head!!!

And I have no idea where we got that Humpty Dumpty is an egg...where did we find out that Humpty Dumpty is an egg?

Oh why is it that on the days I can sleep in I wake up early, and the days I have to wake up early I can't get out of bed?

Though I don't know you that well, I suspect it's your own contrary nature.

That was said with love BTW.

Contrary Mike

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Is the glass half FULL or Half EMPTY????

From philosophy viewpoint, the glass is half full, cause I'm an optimistic person.
From english viewpoint, the sentence contradicts its self, therefore not possible.
From mathematics viewpoint, the solution is irrational.
From chemistry viewpoint, at this stage, an equilibrium is reached, therefore it is neither full nor empty.
From physics viewpoint, the volume of the liquid contained is halved, there fore it has less mass.

A monkey fell down from the tree, because it was dead.
Another monkey fell down from the tree too, because it was dead too.
Why did a third monkey fall down from the tree?]

He fell from the tree because he was laughing so hard at the other two monkeys

Yep, one of those days :%)

Why do people only listen to someone's advice when it is too late?

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Why did a third monkey fall down from the tree?

Because he was trying to grab the nuts of the other two monkeys.





I meant peanuts as snack foods....or did I?

If a spaceship lands directly in front of you and an alien walks out, which of the following statements should you NOT make?

1)"Hi, nice to meet you." (or "Jolly good to see you" if you're from a non-American English nation)
2)"Wow, that's something you don't see everyday!"
3)"HEY! You almost hit my new car! I'm about to beat the crap out of you!"

Choose wisely...consider this training in case the situation ever presents itself...

So Iltat, it's been your mind that keeps bumping into mine in the gutter


"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Unsure if the question was properly answered... I'd say the correct answer (what not to say) is choice 3. "HEY! You almost hit my new car! I'm about to beat the crap out of you!"
If you've ever watched 'The day the earth stood still', you'd understand why you should not take an agressive stance with a superior being.

Is it my turn?

Here's an easy one...

What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?

That's way too easy.

42. duh.

Now I'll ask a harder one-

What is the QUESTION to life, the universe, and everything, to which the answer is 42?

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

We know that is to make thoughs on Atkins want to give up their diet, and go get some smashed

My question now:

When you say you have one mouse, and get another one it is 2 mice...but if you have one moose, why is it 2 moose.

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

Cause you gat another one. Hello! If you've got one moose and get another you've got two.

Mike

OOps! Just reread it and you were talking about why the plural of moose is moose. Geeze, do you have to make the ?s so complicated?

The plural of moose is moose because mooses would sound silly and mice is already taken and miice would be hard to ounce.

That's my guess, Mike

Hey FerretFish &amp; others only just joining this thread now...

explanation;

There was a trivia thread that was really tricky. So I started this thread.

Idea is to ask a question that has a really obvious answer. The more obvious the BETTER. Basically we want to feel smart because we know the answer so you get accolades for being as pedestrian as possible.

Join in, it's funner than not knowin' stuff!

~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

What day of the week follows sunday?

All of them. Well all of them except Sunday because sunday is sunday of course.

Why do people say, "Clean as a whistle"? Whistles, if they had been blown, would have at least a little spit in them.
If it has any spit at all, I wouldn't consider it clean.

Mike

Wrong mike...happy taste buds follow sunday!



Because you wouldnt put it in your mouth if it wasn't clean.

unless of course you're a baby, or a dog....in which case everything goes even if it doesnt make the tast buds happy!.

Question:
"If happiness runs in a circular motion
tossed like a little boat upon the sea"
then is it possible to be happy in the middle of the sahara?

What happened to the plastic surgeon who sat on a fire?

"I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

He should have known better, if you're made out of plastic you have to be very careful around heat sources.

His bottom melted. That caused alot of problems that I won't go into. My understanding is that he made a full recovery and thankfully the scars are not usually visible. BTW his doctor was the one who pioneered the Red Hot Poker procedure for opening melted....well you get the idea.
