2. Why do toasters always have a setting that burns toast to a horrible crisp which no decent human being would ever eat?

Because toast isn't the only thing to go into a toaster, and there might be something else that you would need to cook at that setting.

Because that would end the series. :P

7. What do you call male ballerinas?

Male ballerinas?

8. Can blind people see their dreams?

Yes, but they would look considerably different than ours if they had been blind all their lives. If they had once been able to see, their dreams might look somewhat like ours.

16. Why do the alphabet song and 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star' have the same tune?

Because the person that made the second song that came out was too lazy to make their own tune.


Why is it that everyone on Futurama seems to know everything that has happened in the last 1000 years?
