Fibbing Friday (1/31/20)

(More Fibbing Friday mendacity prompted by pensitivity101, the theme of this one appears to be animals and other random things.  As always, I did my best at being dishonest with the answers, and that’s the truth.  Link below to original post.)

1. Why did the boy remain on the burning deck?   To enjoy his handiwork

2. Where will you find a toad in the hole?   Brothel (you don’t want to know)

3. What do you call a shell-less snail?   Homeless

4. How many eggs are in a clutch?   None, they keep getting crushed between the pressure plate and the flywheel

5. Why do we say someone is a barrel of laughs?   It’s related to the idiom ‘over a barrel,’ in which the person who’s in a precarious situation is the subject of laughter and ridicule

6. Why are horse races in furlongs and athletics in metres?   Horses have yet to adopt the metric system

7. What are love handles?   More things you’ll find in a brothel, not as repulsive as a toad in a hole, but still unseemly

8. What was Granny Smith famous for? Bare knuckle boxing

9. What is the difference between a toe flip and a toe loop?   One is a misdemeanor, the other will get you 25 to life

10. How many teeth are in a honey comb?   Just real teeth?  Or honey comb dentures, caps, and crowns as well?
