23% of worldwide photocopier accidents are caused by people photocopying their butts.<br><br>and now for our feature presentation:<br><br>A duck's quack doesn't echo, and nobody knows why.<br><br>Now, as you have probably guessed by now, I got these from some humor website. Of course, I can't just post spam in here, and I never planned to. I actually have a discussion topic. Which is: (drum roll, please) <br><br>da Da DA DUN!!!<br><br>How much cash do you think these guys are gonna blow trying to find out WHY a ducks quack doesn't echo. echo. echo. heh, sorry.<br><br>Edit: when I say "these guys" I mean A) "They", <!--emo&B)--><img src='

Actually, a duck's quack <i>does</i> echo. It's just difficult to hear. They tested it on "Mythbusters."<br><br><a href='

I believe it was some Marx brother look-alike contest... the real guy entered and placed horribly, they said he couldn't do his trademark walk at all.

What did Iye say the rule was about using "Iye"?!<br><br>ah well, I guess I'll let it slide, cause you're the doppelganger here, it's your job...<br><br>and the usage of "I" was intentional. Iye don't want typing "Iye" for "I" to become a natural reflex.
