    I'll ask one and you answer then ask one yourself, that's how this game goes.

    Bob's mother had four children: Quarter, Dime, Nickel, and what was the name of the last child?

    Penny? jk Bob

    A father and son are driving back from a fishing trip. Just as they get near their home town. There is a terrible car crash. The father is okay, but the teenager is rushed to the hospital in critical condition. The surgeon on call enters the room and after taking one look at the teenager says, "Get another surgeon here STAT, I can't operate on this teenager, he is my son." How is this possible??

      His gay lover? It's his mom. Ok maybe we need harder one's.

      Bob lived on the top floor of a twelve story building. Every time he left his apartment on the twelfth story to go out, he took the elevator to the first floor. However, on his way back up to his apartment, he always took the elevator to the 7th floor, and walked up the stairs for the remaining 5 stories to his apartment. He hated walking up stairs, and he did not need the exercise. Why did he do this?

            It's an easy answer so don't look for a complicated one.

              When you say he took the elevator down to the 1st floor, it doesn't mean he took it from the 12th floor. So I think the elevator didn't go up over the 7th floor. So he was forced to go up as far as he could and walk up the rest of the way.

              Either that or he had a son who was being babysat at a friend's place on the 7th floor and his son hated elevators, so after picking his son up after work he had to walk with him the rest of the way. Simple really Oh and the kid didn't mind walking to the neighbor's place in the morning lol

                He's too short to reach the buttons above 7.


                You walk through a field and stumble upon something to eat. It doesn't have bones, and it doesn't have meat. You pick it up and put it in your pocket. You take it home and put it on a shelf, but 3 day's later it walks away. What is it?

                  Right! And he hasn't figured out how to bring something long to push the high button.
