    I'll shut you all up in the face, we're going off-topic (:rolleyes: )

    Blueberries are blue cuz they like Jazz & Blues, or they're depressed, or they're dead, or they're bits of the sky, or maybe......just maybe, your an idiot!! :p

    Someone already took orange, and dont be silly nothing can be invisible


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,285 ✭✭✭Smellyirishman


    Because you touch yourself.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,125 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    Because oranges are orange.

    And oranges are the only orange things? :rolleyes:

    Why are blackberries not black?

    They're Blue cause they get bruised and beaten by all the other berries cause they taste better.

    And for the Father Ted Response:

    These are small, but the ones out there are Far Away!

    Cos if they were red or yellow or green or some other colour then the name 'blueberries' would be just the stupidest name ever!

    No Al Beback is the stupider name

    Because the redberries didn't ring as they promised to.
