batteries are flat?
Because the way the remote works is when you press the button it creates a contact over a series of wires, the harder you press the button the better the contact will be
2 Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know
there is not enough?
if they didnt charge a fee everyone would go over the limit and also the banks would not make any money also to cover admin costs
3 Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion
stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?
they probably dont believe you but agree as there is no way of checking, when u say the paint is wet is easy to reach out and check
4 Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?
Because its in an airtight container, glue needs air to dry, if the lid was left off for long enough it would stick the the sides
5 Why do they use sterilised needles for death by lethal injection?
I wouldnt imagine they go out of there way to sterilise it, but as they dont make unsterilised needles i would imagine its easy and cheaper o just buy them sterelised
6 Why doesn't Tarzan have a ! beard?
how does peter pan fly? :rolleys: tarzan is imaginary stupid question
7 Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you
throw a gun at him?
Again, imaginery, stupid question

in a box
13 If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be
twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?
Impossible maths
14 If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?
These are mainly members of CS
15 If it's true that we are here to help others, what are the others
doing here?
Helping others also, there are always "others"

seem longer?
Crap question as it has no sunstance or physical evidence

is it a hostage situation?
no

19 What level of importance must a person have, before they are
considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

A square box is stronger
22 How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it
eh?
23 Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies
wakeup every two hours?
ITS JSUT A SAYING

Actully assasination isn't a form of murder, it's a technique used to perform a murder.

what is meant is when someone is assasinated they are murdered using the method of assasination, simply saying they were assasinated is easier.
IMO anyone can be assasinated but its only people in the public eye that need or draw this kind of technique
