A 'cashew', dumbasses.

Why'd the supermodel date the mushroom?

Stupot · Sun 18/05/2014 06:40:21

Because she also did part time voluntary work with a group of fungal archaeologists.

I know the joke, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guanaco or even llamas are in the same family.

Riddle. It's a riddle. Just because it's funny doesn't mean you don't have to think ~~literally~~ laterally to solve it.

Oh dear. Shades of "what do you call a man without a shovel in his head?" there!

....an ambulance?

CaptainD · Tue 20/05/2014 22:12:37

Douglas!

(As opposed to a man with a shovel in his head, who is called Doug.

)

Stupot · Tue 20/05/2014 23:52:29

What you you call a man with holes in his hands?

faerieevenstar · Tue 20/05/2014 23:56:52

Jesus?

oooor... The Stig? (mata...)

Baron · Wed 21/05/2014 02:16:49

Spartacus!

....or Cheese Man?

I think it's okay to bring this thread back to life as I have a riddle I just thought up, and so, instead of making a new thread:

Singular: Cactus. Plural: Cacti.
Singular: Hippopotamus. Plural: Hippopotami.
Singular: Octopus. Plural: Octopi.

What is the case where this rule is reversed?

CaptainD · Wed 08/02/2017 08:49:34

Hmm... interesting one. I thought I might be onto something with calculi / calculus or foci / focus- sadly not - but I shall continue to cogitate...
