My daughter came over to me one day with a look of confusion on her face and said "Mummy? why do i have knees on my arms?"

[JoeWere]

That Russian Boris thing is incredible. That is basically how mythologies are created! :-D

I love that when Rhett makes a joke he's happy with he looks in the camera :)

[prettykitty]

Rhett, if your kids are watching this, they're just gonna ask Google their questions from now on.

If I have children I will answer their deep questions with deep scientific and philosophical answers.

[sournova]

my 5 year old brother asked me where do babies come from?' my answer: 'go ask mum'

[amandadawnbell]

Bobby: Mommy, why are fire trucks red?

Me: Because they have eight wheels, eight plus four is twelve and there are twelve inches on a ruler and Queen Elizabeth was a ruler and Queen Elizabeth was also a ship that sails the seas and in the seas live fish, fish have fins, The Finns fought the Russians and the Russians are red, so that is why fire trucks are always Russian around. :3

Bobby: Oh. :P

Link:Wetness is defined by Something that has water or any other type of liquid,
Me: *sexy imagination powers activated*

[MrVulcanator]

Some shadows are actually not shadows at all. They are Vashta Nerada. Here on earth they live on roadkill in forests, but sometimes a hiker goes missing. Count the shadows. They can skeletonize anything instantly.

[zenco]

What about "Where do babies come from?". That seems like it would be a really common question.

[Keallei]

2:35 Link: Why is water wet?
Rhett: Because if it was dry, you’d choke on it.
7:58 Rhett: If you drink enough water, you don’t have to breathe.
Best answers.

[TheGreatGYROFLUFF]

In fact we cannot feel moisture, there are no touch receptors on our skin that can detect moisture. Instead we perceive moisture as a mixture of temperature and pressure receptors being activated.

This is why it sometimes feels like your hand is wet when it becomes cold or touches something cold. This is also why it can feel like your hand is wet when you touch something wet with a latex glove even though you know it can't be wet.

I don't mind the ads

I don't mind the buffer

But when the ads buffer

I suffer

[rossdarrow]

(a line I said when I was five)

5 year old: Mommy does money grow on trees?
Mom: No
5 year old: What is money made out of?
Mom: Paper
5 year old: Where does paper come from?
Mom: Trees

Few seconds later

5 year old: YOU LIED TO ME!
