    So I still have some more questions, like I said before you don't have to be staff to answer.

    1.) If man evolved from monkeys, how come we still have monkeys?

    2.) If vampires can't see their reflections, why is their hair always so neat?

    3.) Do they have the word "dictionary" in the dictionary?

    4.) If ghosts can walk through walls and glide down stairs, why don't they fall through the floor?

    5.) Why is vanilla ice cream white when vanilla extract is brown?

    6.) Why do people think that swaying their arm back and forth would change the direction of a bowling ball?

    7.) Why aren't drapes double sided so it looks nice on the inside and outside of your home?

    8.) If pro and con are opposites, wouldn't the opposite of progress be congress?

    9.) Do Siamese twins pay for one ticket or two tickets when they go to movies and concerts?

    10.) If milk goes bad if not refrigerated, why does it not go bad inside the cow?

    1.) If man evolved from monkeys, how come we still have monkeys? Not sure, maybe go ask someone who is qualified to answer this question.

    2.) If vampires can't see their reflections, why is their hair always so neat? No such thing, therefor it isn't always neat.

    3.) Do they have the word "dictionary" in the dictionary? Because some people are stupid enough to not know what a dictionary is, yet they are reading one.

    4.) If ghosts can walk through walls and glide down stairs, why don't they fall through the floor? No such thing, who knows.

    5.) Why is vanilla ice cream white when vanilla extract is brown? Process in which they make ice-cream. The ingredients make it a different color.

    6.) Why do people think that swaying their arm back and forth would change the direction of a bowling ball? Because 9 + 10 = 21.

    7.) Why aren't drapes double sided so it looks nice on the inside and outside of your home? Money.

    8.) If pro and con are opposites, wouldn't the opposite of progress be congress? Yes. I agree.

    9.) Do Siamese twins pay for one ticket or two tickets when they go to movies and concerts? Juan, as they have the same body. One seat is only being taken up.

    10.) If milk goes bad if not refrigerated, why does it not go bad inside the cow? -buys cow and dissects the cow-

    9+10 does actually equal 21. 3*3=9,5*2=10, 3*5=15,3*2=6, 15+6 = 21!

    1.) If man evolved from monkeys, how come we still have monkeys?
    We all took different directions, some evolved and others didn't. You could say we all have one race as is the origin of everything money-human like right now. We all evolved the way we needed to in order to survive, some walked, others ran on all fours. All in-betweens of the monkeys today have died out as they most likely weren't adapted enough to survive, there's tales of different, more brutal endings to other speechies during the evolution though :/

    2.) If vampires can't see their reflections, why is their hair always so neat?
    It depends on what vampire. Personally, I larp as vampires about 1-2 times a month (larp this weekend) and there's only one type of vampires as can't see their reflection. Majority of the vampires doesn't care and I never really look in the mirror regarding my hair so yeah.. They can't dye their hair either because they'll return to themselves during the morning. There's artsy and fancy vampires as does care though. xD The thing that vampires can't see themselves in the mirror is just something humans made up~

    3.) Do they have the word "dictionary" in the dictionary?
    Yes they do indeed.

    4.) If ghosts can walk through walls and glide down stairs, why don't they fall through the floor?
    They're built out of electrons which enables them to stay at a place or glide through buildings ^^

    5.) Why is vanilla ice cream white when vanilla extract is brown?
    Because they only have a tiny amount of it and the products is primarily made of (diary products) tends to be white.

    6.) Why do people think that swaying their arm back and forth would change the direction of a bowling ball?
    I don't really know but I have my theories, the slight swinging is to get the speed. They most likely also try to feel it in so they do a straight roll as otherwise it could curve which would make them not get a high score.

    7.) Why aren't drapes double sided so it looks nice on the inside and outside of your home?
    You can make them beautiful or buy special made ones but people tend to go for the cheaper option as it's just something to keep the sun away.

    8.) If pro and con are opposites, wouldn't the opposite of progress be congress?
    Sadly no as the words are already taken for other things, feel free to make a word that would be a suitable opposite, make the vast majority of the world say it and there you go, you've made a new word.

    9.) Do Siamese twins pay for one ticket or two tickets when they go to movies and concerts?
    They pay for one ticket on the concerts and they then it depends when it comes to the movies, are they separate enough to sit on two spaces? If they are, then they pay for two but if they both are stuck so much they can only sit on one, they pay for one.
    Note: this can also vary from different cinemas and concerts.


    10.) If milk goes bad if not refrigerated, why does it not go bad inside the cow?
    Because it's made there and it's quickly getting milked out of the cow, fast enough at least and it could be that the things as makes it go bad as soon as it does for us is ingredients added afterwards.
