    You mean whom are you!

    Why is it we never go with our friends' wardrobe suggestions but instead we do the exact opposite?

    Because we want to look fly like Willy Wonka

    Why is the lingering odor of Petrichor so interesting? (If you didn't know Petrichor is that odor that lingers when it rains after a long dry spell)

    It's all a part of Illuminati's new world order

    Why are there multiple instances throughout history where people ignore or even encourage genocides?

    It's erased from history; and therefore can't learn from the past.

    What number is next in the following sequence? 1,1,2,3,5, ?

    The next number in that sequence is !.

    1 1 2 3 5 ? !

    Why do we gravitate towards binary views of everything, I.E. theist or atheist rather than agnostic, male and female rather than a spectrum?

    Humans are too stupid to keep track of more than two groups at a time.

    Why do people enjoy music?

    It's used as fuel to burn on our journey, allowing people to tunnel underground and construct nests. They fall out the other side, hence the world being flat.

    Why do the smallest minds always obtain the most power?

    Because ostriches are fearsome creatures.

    Why is there war?

    Because people have different ideologies, but they are too small-minded to see their beliefs as what they are, replaceable contructs. Or someone wants power, ressources, territory.

    Why are so many people hateful towards the intellectually gifted?

    Because smart people are dumb!

    Why do people overeat despite it being detrimental to their own health (guilty of this myself...)?

    because food is good and our lizard brains can't see the future.

    Do mitochondria have feelings?

    No, mitochrondia don't sing, so they don't have feelings.

    Why do humans perceptions of music as good or bad differ among individuals?

    That is what happens when they change something...

    Why did the Mayas build a so complex calander, but hadn't invented the wheel and seafaring boats?

    They were going to, they just had build the calendar first so they could schedule the rest of their inventions.

    Why does history tend to repeat itself?

    Because it forgets the point it was trying to make in the conversation.

    What's the point of all the planets if Earth is the only one we know of to be inhabited (so far)?
