Thursday Thirteen

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I had the pleasure of spending some time with my 19 year old nephew. We had a blast! One thing we did was surf the Internet. He found a site with PhilosoRaptor quotes and made me laugh out loud at some of the way-too-logical observations and crazy questions (which completely surprises me because of it's liberal, irreverent nature), so I am sharing 13 of my favorites with you. 1. If money doesn't grow on trees, why do banks have branches?

2. If actions speak louder than words, is the pen really mightier than the sword?

3. Two wrongs don't make a right, but two Wrights make a plane.

4. If 4 out of 5 people suffer from diarrhea, does the 5th one enjoy it?

5. If someone with a split personality threatens to commit suicide, is it a hostage situation?

6. Is a rivalry between two vegetarians still called a beef?

7. Why do they use sterile needles for a lethal injection?

8. If I fail at life, does that mean I win at death?

9. Doesn’t expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected?

10. If tomatoes are a fruit, isn’t ketchup technically a smoothie?

11. Can you get cornered in a round room?

12. If Mac users care more about the environment than Windows users, then why do Macs have a trash can and Windows has a recycle bin?

13. If dull scissors are called safety scissors, are sharp scissors called danger scissors?

Bonus! Is there another word for synonym?
