Most of them were meh, however I did enjoy several. However 6 made me realize something (also, Holland is just part of the Netherlands. Not the name of the country) I asked when I was younger (and subsequently got in trouble) but never actually found out. If people from Nigeria are called Nigerians, what are people from Niger called?

@FireCat:

Are you seriously saying that you don't understand a single one of the jokes?

Most of them are not even questions and some are not very smart at all:
Isn't making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?
No. Smoke does not come out of your body.
If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea does that mean that one enjoys it?
If 4 out of 5 people suffer it could also be that 5 out of 5 people suffer. Its not wrong to say that 4 suffer even though all 5 do.
If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes?
Holland is not a country. Its the netherlands. And I call them Nethanderthals.
Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a race car is not called a racist?
Because its a pianist and not a playist. The guy driving a race car should be called a carist.
Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would be if it didn't zigzag?
Speed has nothing to do with the distance traveled.

Stupid.
