Unanswerables

Barbara Mikkelson, primary researcher and co-proprietor of the urban legend debunking site Snopes.com, has posted a rather humorous list of questions she received that were inherently unanswerable and...questionable in nature. A few samples:

I've heard that it is impossible to take a lightbulb out of your mouth once one puts it in, without either breaking the bulb or dislocating the jaw.

Do you know if this is true? I'm counting on you - my husband is really curious, and I don't want to have to drive him to the hospital...

A friend of mine asked me if I've ever hear of invisible witches or ghosts that suck the blood out of a person's arm while they are sleeping. Apparently, she saw "marks" on her boyfriend's arm and this was the story that he told her.

Is Ciara a MAN????? PLEASE ANSWER ME BACK!!!!!

HOW CAN I GET THE SUCTION BROKE WHEN THE CONTACT IS STUCK TO EYE


Go read through the whole list; after you've finished laughing, remember that the people who penned the questions are (or soon will be) eligible to vote...

On that note, I think I'll go home and pour myself a scotch. A double. Spiked with vodka.
