Something to ponder

If chocolate is made out of cocoa beans, and beans are vegetables. Does that make chocolate a vegetable?

 

[Clayton]

my head hurts

 

[otaku]

seing that the cocoa "bean" is actually a seed, it is more than likely NOT a vegetable

 

[sandeano]

Why is it that goods sent by car is called "shipping", but if you send the same stuff by ship it is called "cargo"?

 

[Uncle Steve]

Beef is made from cows. Cows are made from hay. Hay is a vegetable. Does this make beef a vegetable?

 

[Richmondfan#1]

Well if the cocoa bean is infact a seed, then that would make chocolate fruit, instead of a vegetable.

 

[lenny&carl]

Beans aren't vegetables, they're legumes.

 

[mellowyellow]

Most beans give me the sh*ts literally ! Cocoa beans happily are an exception to the rule.

What has more neutritional value, The Big Mac or the wrapping?

Works for me. And seeing beer is made from water and plant matter, I count that as a vegetable too.

So if I'm getting 15 serves of vegies a day, how come I'm still a fat bastard?

Why are apartments so close together?
(lost sleep over this one)

If Hercules had the strength of ten men, why didn't eleven guys gang up on him?

If Australians are from Australia, Americans American are Canadians from Canadia?
(my pick up line from canada )

I have a friend who always says Canadia.

I recon it has a certaint biblical charm about it...

And the Israilites returned to Canadia... wait, where were the Cainainites from?

If peanut oil is made from peanuts and canola oil is made from canola, what is baby oil made of?

If vegetarians eat vegetables, what do humanitarians eat?

Why do I have a cold in the middle of summer?

 

[beckybiglands]

why do toasters have a setting that burns the toast?

 

[Weaver]

Why do Frankfurts come in packs of 8 but bread roles typically come in packs of 6.

I have a friend that has been known to drop "Hungaria" (where Hungarians come from) and "Daneland" (where you would find the Danish.)

[IceTemple]

So that when you look in your rear view mirror you can read the word "ambulance".

This is actually a clever marketing ploy, as you need to buy an extra package of rolls for the two hot dogs.

Now you've got another 4 rolls without hot dogs so you buy another package of hot dogs.

Dammit now you need four more rolls!

Now you have two more rolls than hot dogs so you quickly calculate that by buying one more package of each it will balance.

So the answer is buy 3 packets of hot dogs, 4 packages of rolls, eat the two you want and throw out the rest!

(but at least the totals balance)

Which reminds me of a joke…..

There’s a rich white woman and a poor black woman on a plane that’s about to crash.

The rich white woman opens her jewellery box and puts on all her most expensive jewels.

The black woman sees this and asks her why she is doing it, to which the rich white woman replies “in case they look for valuables, then they will find me first”.

The poor black woman thinks about this for a minute and then takes off all her clothes.

The white woman sees this and asks her why she is doing it, to which she replies……

“silly woman, don’t you know that they always look for the black box first!!”.
