Stupid question - smart answer

A kinda old game that we already played here long ago :)


I’d like to revive it now.


One asks something stupid, next answers and posts his/her own question.


Example: Why the Earth is round?


            – Because she is a sister of other planets in Solar system :)


Let’s start.


P.S. Don’t be afraid to ask something stupid, it’s just for fun :)

Friends, I think we’ve mixed up two forums “Stupid question – smart answer” & “Guess describing thing” ;)


It cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills and empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after. It ends life and kills laughter. What is it?


Night.


 


Why can people laugh, but animals can’t?

Thanks Snoopyboy for your precious information, but I feel Eleniya is talking about mood of animals in general; sure Chimpanzees do laugh, but they are exceptional cases.


Animals don’t show emotions like human being – crying or laughing; for they are not emotionally sensitive creatures. Thinking capability of human generates emotional sensitivity. As they say, “the more you know; the more you laugh; and the more you cry.”

It’s a kind of a psychological attack. Japanese pilots also shouted “banzai!” before an attack.

Why doesn’t hair grow on bald heads?

... because that’s what bald stands for … moreover solid ground is required to pitch a tent.
Glossary:
Solid ground = bald head,
pitch a tent = wig :)
