If you have sex with a prostitute against her will, is it considered rape or shoplifting?
Technically, non-consensual sex with a woman no matter her occupation is considered rape. Humans are not classified as objects that can be " stolen ".
Can you cry under water?Yes you can cry under water (: Tearing is more common though; when your eyes get irritated by the salt water/chlorine.
How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?The importance of the person is not so much of a factor. Rather, it is the motive behind the killings. Generally, the motive would have to be noteworthy: eg. political objective before it is considered an assassination.
Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?Hmmm i would guess that your freely given opinion is worth more than your spoken thoughts. haha!
Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?Thats a very interesting question. It depends on your concept of Heaven.
1. Perpetual happiness ( some girls would be very unhappy if they're stuck with one set of clothes, so you should get a change of clothes )
2. Static existence. ( maybe same clothes for eternity? )3. no heaven. hence no clothes.
Why does a round pizza come in a square box?A square box provides a much more stable wall structure. Also, while it might use abit more cupboard, it takes alot more effort to manufacture the curved walls rather than the traditional box shape.
What disease did cured ham actually have?No disease. Its was merely subjected to additional treatment ( hence cured)
How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?It has got to do with the order of events. Space travel technology helped to make commercial jet flights possible; allowing inter continental travelling for ordinary folks. It was only then that the luggage is needed and hence the wheel innovation.
Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?It depends on your baby. On average, a baby sleeps up to 16 hours a day, so while he may have a period of activity, he generally spends most of his time sound asleep. Hence the phrase " slept like a baby"
Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?hmmm. very good question. DONT KNOW
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?Money makes people do weird things.
Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They're going to see you naked anyway.'Its got to do with retaining the modicum of modesty. You shouldnt be getting used to stripping at ease / seeing people strip naked right?
Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural?bra is derived from brassiere. Since it is " a brassiere", it follows that it is " a bra ". Panties is derived from pants which is derived from Pantaloons. Since pantaloons is plural, panties are therefore, panties.
Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?Bread comes in different textures. There might be one day you want to toast an extremely coarse bread? (:
If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him?There are many songs about stuff that nobody cares too. One must make musical ( literal ) allowances.
Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane ?Yes if it is fetching employees of the undertaker to work simultaneously
If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?It has got to do with the availability of parts. You cannot use electronic components as glue / waterproof material to mend a hole in the boat.
Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs!Goofy has human-like characteristics and can apt human behavior. Pluto remains a more conventional human's best friend role. Hence goofy gets to walk on 2s and pluto remains on 4s.
If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?His issue wasnt with food, his issue was with his occupation, which happens to be attempting to eat the roadrunner.
If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?Baby oil is made from hydrocarbons meant for the use of babies.
If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?No. They have different root words. Just because it has the same starting 3 letters doesnt mean that they come from the same word.
Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?Yes it does. So does " baa baa black sheep ".
Why did you just try singing the two songs above?The musically inclined me does not have to sing the songs to know that they share the same melody.
Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt?astrology -> ast-roid
rectal issues -> hem-orrhoid
Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?Its got to do with his keen scent. Imagine if someone who stinks go all the way in front of you and refuse to budge, how would you feel? Same goes for the dog.

i think its better to assume that the dog will behave differently to different people instead.Since it is YOUR friend's dog, it might like her alot ( growing to like her scent ) and hence lick her face.
However, if another person did the same thing a different set of response might occur?
Not really sure about it, would you like to experiment? =x
Anyway, you cannot use personalities for non-humans, unless they exhibit person-like behaviours. When you attribute human-like qualities to an an object/animal, you are using a literary device called " personification " eg. " diamonds are women's best friend ". Only humans can be friends right? In this case a literal licence is allowed. Your usage doesnt really sound right, but is technically permited
