The Queen's Meme – Milking Donkeys

The Queen’s Meme #36 ~ The Weird, Unusual and Amusing Meme

Sometimes silly.
Sometimes serious.
Always fun!
Step out of the box.
Be creative.
Use your imagination.
No one’s answers are quite like yours!

The following statements are true. Your job is to explain why you think they are true. Just offer up your usual amusing quips! I’m betting we’ll have some hysterical responses. Remember that somewhere somebody in the world needs to know these things and your tax dollars probably paid for the research that went into proving them true.

1. More people are killed by donkeys annually than are killed in plane crashes.

Maybe people keep trying to milk the donkeys and it makes the donkeys very upset, especially the boy donkeys.

2. Donald Duck comics were banned in Finland because he doesn’t wear pants.

I am not sure why Donald Duck not having pants is that big of a deal.  After all he does not have a dingle that he needs to keep concealed.

3. If you keep a Goldfish in the dark room, it will eventually turn white.

Maybe goldfish use photosynthesis so no light means no color.  Or maybe it is so they can see each other better in the dark.

I know, the skin is made from real gold and when it is dark the gold stealing fairies come and steal the gold fishes gold and it leaves them white.

4. The shortest war in history was between Zanzibar and England in 1896. Zanzibar surrendered after 38 minutes. Why were they fighting in the first place?

They were fighting over a woman

5. Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

That is so we can focus better.

6. The ant always falls over on its right side when intoxicated.

What is the scientific value of finding out which way an ant falls when it is drunk?
Maybe its head is heavier on the right side.

7. An ostrich’s eye is bigger than its brain.

I have no idea why, but it makes sense. When an ostrich sticks its head in the ground it really thinks it is hiding.

8. In England, the Speaker of The House is not allowed to speak.

That is an oxymoron if I have ever heard one. I am clueless. I could google it but then it would take some of the fun out of this meme.

9. By raising your legs slowly and lying on your back, you cannot sink into quicksand.

I have a theory about how this technique was discovered. This is the same position my husband takes when he is farting in bed, so I am thinking the person who discovered that this worked, found out because he was farting.

10. On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents daily.

Now that is just crazy! Maybe the parents are actually the ones doing it so they can trade their baby in for a better version.

12. The electric chair was invented by a dentist.

Not surprising. The dentist probably invented it as a way to further torture his patients, after all, that is what it feels like when you have to go to the dentist.

  1. hmmmm I agree on the eletric chair comment.. When my youngest son was born he was the ONLY boy inthe nursery. One morning they wheeled in the bassinet and it was allin pink. I looked at the nurse and said… " I said circumcise not sex change" She went OMG I am so sorry.. Apparently she had left my SON in the room next to me.. Hello woman did you not notice the blue or was your son wanting a boy and you thought here was your chance.. Um not unless you want a butt whooping from me cause it will go down that way..
    So glad I am no longer having babies lol
    My recent post Comment Love letters, I am popping my bloggin cherry with this one lol..

    • oh wow! When my son was born he was also the only newborn in the nursery, had red, hair and was 10 pounds so he did not even look like a newborn. It would have been hard to mistakenly give him to another family.
