I love the name for this game.
the idea is, that the first poster posts a question (a question that they have always wondered about)
so it could be.. why is saturday called saturday? (well it could be anything!)
then the poster underneath replies with an answer- it could be a sensible answer, or it could be just a made up answer, then they ask a brand new question
(so everyone gets a turn at being, " the oracle")
so my question is..
why are french fries called french fries, if they didn't actually originate in france?
Because I had naming rights and I said so.
Why do people get depression?
It is primarily a chemical inbalance in the brain that screws up perception. It often runs in families, but can affect most anyone given a combination of hi stress combined with poor sleep over an extended period of time.
Why is human nature so unnatural?
because life is unfair.
why is ice so cold
Because you are so hot.
How do you provthe existance of clouds to a blind person?
By sunlight and shading.
Why was there bacon in the soap?
because the company made a fatal error and had to recall a whole batch of it
why are their 12 months in a year. surely it is easier to just round it down to 10
Well, there used to be 13, but over time as the cosmos evolved the earth got a bit closer to the sun, and edged out the 13th. There used to be 13 zodiac signs too.
Why is the number 13 unlucky.
lol is that really true?
about the 13 months of the year, interesting..
the number 13 is unlucky, because it's associated with the movie, "friday the 13th", which is a horror movie anyway so people just asume that on the 13th day something bad will happen to them (I personally don't believe in it myself). day 13 is just like any other
why do we have day light savings time
Nobody really seems to know for sure though there are a number of theories. Daylight is not actually even saved, it is just moved a bit. LOL We do not honor it in Arizona, and I do not miss it.
If you just pull answers out of your ass, does that make you a analical? LOL
lol.
no.. you never know how true they are
why does tomato sauce not taste of tomato?
It's hard to say. I guess the tomato sauce folks wanted to be enigmatic. Why is "humour" spelled "humor" in the US?
because, even though americans have the same language as the brittish (sort of), they have a diffrent accent, so say words diffrently.
why does the UK not have a disneyland
Because you one has to be silly to enjoy Disneyland. Americans like being silly, not so sure about Brits.
Why is loyalty blue, but jealousy green?
because, someone sat down 1 day and said right, well, it would be easier if we associated colors with diffrent stuff, so that they have some meaning
from then on they came up with green for envy thing
why do they name hurricanes names of people?. why not something original
Because if they were named after our pets, for example dogs, no one would take hurricanes seriously and evacuate if needed. Can you imagine the reaction from the public if the weatherman reported that Fido or Snoopy or whatever was going to devastate cities along the Gulf coast? Lol.
Why are there only three branches of government in the US?
Because we Americans can't count any higher. LOL
Why is it that lawyers must pass the bar and know the law while a judge does not have to be a lawyer. A judge can be anyone legally.
hurrican Fido.
sounds pretty believable to me
lawyers have to handle more legal stuff than a judge does
while a judge only works in a court, a lawyer has a bigger role in society.
is their life on any other planet than earth?
Yeah, according to science, there's possibly life on mars.
why is Trump a fucking moron Instead of helping people, he's fucking making fun? like what in the flying fuck? rofl?
You answered your own question. He is a moron. No offense to morons.
Where have all the flowers gone?
they are all dying because it's autumn now (or fall)
why is harry potter so popular?. it's just a series of stories about a wizard
He's popular because there might not be any more chosen ones or you-know-who. rofl
Why does parmasion cheese smell like feet?
maybe they are just trying to get people not to buy it.
or maybe it has something to do with the part of the animal cheese comes from (iwww!), or maybe, it's just that all cheese smells like that- or maybe, it smells okay, and you're sensitive
oh mighty oracle, why do we need to brush our teeth?
surely with all the wonders of the human body, you would have thought self-cleaning teeth would be a thing, right?
hahahaha, yeah. but is it suitable to go to a job interview with your breath smelling like shit? I guess not. haha
Why does chocolate taste so good? it's like I live in my own world eating that chocolate! haha
chocolate is just a gift from the gods.
it couldn't taste bad even if you wanted it too!
oracle why is it advised to eat 3 meals a day?
Because if you ate too many meals, you would turn into a Santa Claus, and we can't deal with 7 billion of those. If you ate too few meals, you would just die, and apparently death is hazardous for your health.
Why are capital letters a thing?
Without capital letters, how would we know when a word is important. Words are very sensitive you know. They get into a funk when someone doesn't notice how important they are. Then pure chaos breaks out.
If most people want sex to last, why is it such a short word?
because, it is a word used by many, many people, several times a day.
if it was long, people wouldn't be able to pronounce it.
oracle, why do ducks like it when you feed them bread, even though bread isn't good for ducks?
For the same reason people like candy which is not good for them either.
Who do you remind me of?
oracle,
how come america has so many states?
why can't it be like africa and just contain diffrent countries
Because then just like Africa, there would be continuous war, and many refugees fleeing the really screwed up states. This way, the states can work together for the common good, at least most of the time. Canada is similar.
Who do I remind you of?
I don't know really. haha
Why does math have to exist? I get that it's important but... it makes our brain hurt!
It exists to make your brain hurt. That way, when it is done, you feel so much better.
Why are good things always fattening?
because most of those "good things" contain sugar, which is fattening and easy to get addicted too
oracle, what is it in our bodies that cause the gag reflex?
It is the body's way of defending itself from things harmful. Food or water going down to fast, something poisonous. It is the first step towards vomiting.
Why do most men prefer long hair on women?
Because they think that it is sexy or at least more so than bald women. Hahaha.
Why are little girls depicted as sugar and spice and everything nice, whereas little boys are labelled as snails and puppydogs tails?
probably because us girls are so cuteand inosent!
and boys tend to like violent stuff, playing with swords, throwing mud, and finding strange things (which I suppose, could include a puppy's tail or a snail)
oracle, why do so many people's moods get affected when it is raining?
Because it is gloomy, cloudy, and often wet and cold. We humans like light and warmth. But, with that in mind, why do people like to walk in the rain with a romantic partner?
because their is a song by love unlimited that goes, " walking in the rain with the one I love feels just fine", and everyone listened to that song and is copying it.
oracle, how many time zones are in the world?
"Google it."
Oracle, (of Ages? Seasons? No?) How many fingers am I holding up?
oh wow
what an original response. and I thought the oracle knew it all..
anyway, 11?. lol.
oracle, why is snow white and not a diffrent color
Because it is made up of crystals. It is not always white though, have you never heard of yellow snow?
What happed to the Oracle?
she went all dark with a halloween name and will probably rename herself the oracle after haloween is over.
oracle asks, do you think vampires do actually exist?
If you want them to.
Yo, Oracle? Should I be Zelda for Halloween?
oracle says, she's not really that scary, so probably not
oracle asks why is math so hard?
Not sure, but try fabric softener.
What SHOULD I be for Halloween?
oracle says, try to think of a scary character from a book and go as them
oh oracle, are you ever too old to trick or treat?
Nope.
Why do I have an appendix and tonsils?
Tonsils help fight bacteria in the mouth. The apendix is a blood filter attach to your intestine but when ancient people ate a lot of raw meat. It is now obsolete and weventually disappear.
oracle why do so many people enjoy playing these types of games on message boards
because we have nothing interesting to do so we sit here, playing these games.
Oracle, why do I love sia's voice so much?
because she has great vocals, and she never overdoes it with her voice.
oracle,
why are crows so loud!
Because they are singing to loud music only they can hear.
Why can't I stop listening to Beauty of Annihilation?
because you're going through what everyone goes through from time to time.. you have to listen to something over and over again.
(yes, it happens to all of us!)

It is a matter of opinion; there is no definite answer.
Will I get married to somebody I know right now? Lol.
no. doesn't work that way sorry.
oracle why do so many people hate being corrected by others?
I don't know, because people don't really like that. personally, I don't mind.
Oracle,
why do people add me to groups with people who have serious issues?
Because they think you can help?
Why do people feel the need to touch me.
because some people just want that extra bit of comunication

the egg
Which is better american biscuits or british ones.
Neither is truly better, it is merely a matter of opinion.
Will I ever get married? lol
Probably.
Do souls move in schools, or only in pairs?
pairs
Why would you want to get married, when nothing lasts forever?
One can not expect forever. You eat food, yet you will get hungry again. Love is worth it. Marriage, committed that is, not the paper, is worth it while it lasts.
Why do people opt to be lonely?
Because then they will never feel the pain of being heart-broken?
Why is Christmas such a big deal to some people?
Because it gives people an excuse to be more kind to each other than they might otherwise be.
Oracle, why are so many people intentionally cruel?
Because they feel that others must understand their suffering.
Where was the first hamburger made?
On a barbecue grill.
Can you see truth in a blind person's eyes?
Yes.
How old are cars?
Well, the Oracle needs more specificity. If you are asking about automobiles, the first ones were around 1890. If you are talking about trains, box cars go back to the beginning of trains, I believe in the 1830s.
Lol, it's a reference to this video I saw.
The Oracle then states that video is not relevant.
When was middle school invented.
Yesterday.
What time is it in Nigeria?
10:01
