You can only find money on trees if you swap it with monkey. Then you have to pay for goods and services with monkey which may be a hassle.

Why aren't cars called wheeliebobs?
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

Because wheeliebobs have their name copyrighted. They live in Monaco.

What happens to people who eat Harfpüehz tree onions?

The Seamstress

It's for secret ships. With secret people on board. But that's a secret. You didn't hear it from me! (This message will self-destruct in 10, 9, 8...)

The Seamstress

This will be revealed in the year 2222, according to the prophecy.

What else will be revealed?

That's surely not a question for polite company: good heavens!


When does a wave on the shore become a memory of the sea neverending?

Why are there problems wine can't solve?
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

The Seamstress

Because alcohol isn't and shouldn't be a problem solver, no matter how great or small the problem. Seriously: Don't.

And since this is a non-stupid answer in a stupid questions-and-answers thread, let me just add: Why should grapes be in charge of solving human problems all the time, that's against worker rights. Leave them alone to do their fermentation thing!

Why aren't armadilloes better pianists?
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

Why do I have to pay internet bill but never internet hilary, internet amanda, or internet juan?
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

The Seamstress

Internet Bill invented the internet, so he's in charge and gets all the money first. Internet Hilary is the assistant, Internet Amanda does the PR and Internet Juan is idly looking out the window.

Who's really creating crop circles?
