up next on Cad's stumping by a 7 year old"

"Dad - why do we drive on a parkway and park in a driveway"

These are the kind of deep questions that have puzzled mankind for decades.

I know what the first two are, unfortunately.

I’m scared to look up the third.

You’re trying to get the most downvotes ever, right? Please say you are.

If blood WERE to be blue how would scientists know that?

Whey would they have seen blood in a non-oxygen environment to begin with? Some kind of chamber where a human being - without oxygen - cut himself or something? How did the human do this?

Mine asked me once, "Do ticks have ears?"

I said probably but they are internal like birds. What the hell do I know?

just like the earth, the moon is flat. therefore, the blood flow will be horizontal.

You should have told your kid you didn't pay attention in Biology. Im pretty sure human blood has iron in it which causes it to be red in our body.

You might be mistaking the color of blood with our veins.

Interesting that you would think that when one of the purposes of your "red blood cells" is to bring oxygen-rich cells from the lungs to the heart which is then carried throughout your body. So, it is in contact with oxygen

Well veins aren’t blue either. You see them this color often on anatomy diagrams, etc., for differentiation.

Threads like these where OP posts some dumb shite and then disappears should be grounds for automatic 3 month timeout

They are so smart and clever. 2 years ago, my son was only 5 years old and he asked me this question:

"Dad, how did you get the money to buy this house?".

That's a 5 year old brain asking these types of questions.
