4.2398759 years. As eggs and a half can be easily smashed by wooden legs, the meaning of life, the universe, and everything is actually raccoons. Using the raccoon theorem and the knowledge that hens do not like flatbread, we can see that 15.2169146051/3.589 = 4.2398759.
As I heard it..."If you were paddling upstream in a canoe, how many pancakes does it take to cover a doghouse?" "It doesn't really matter because there are no pits in ice cream."

these are hilarious!! I have never heard any of them and I will be sure to use them with my co-workers. I work with mostly all men and they ask a lot of nosy questions. I think from now on, instead of replying in a sarcastic and hateful way, I'm going to come back at them with one of these riddles. They are all grown men over the age of 40, some over 50 but act like they are in junior high school. One of these statements will really get them going!!!! Thanks for posting!!!

Two answers: bananas because fur doesn't grow on trees. Or, one if it's big enough.
So first is my dads version of the doghouse/pancake joke that i got from him as a kid 30 years ago and he got from his dad 30 years before that (I always wondered where it came from but it sounds like a lot of people got similarly odd versions of the joke from their dads--thanks dad!):

The way I heard it was. How many pancakes does it take to shingle a doghouse? 17. Because there's no bones in the ice cream. I didn't think this thing with the pancakes in the ice cream with no bones was real. My buddy ask me many years ago how many pancakes does it take to shingle a doghouse. Cool
About 55 years ago I created a wired joke and I have repeated it to several friends usually after a drink or two: "If a canoe came rolling up your back yard and the two back wheels fell off it, how many pancakes does it take to cover a dog's house? None because icecream doesn't have holes in it."
I have yet to hear anyone repeat it correctly. Lol.... Keith G
Back about 35 years ago we would recite it now and then but ours went:

Wet birds don't fly at night
Bats really can see, they're only faking it.
(then if you were crafty you would actually make up some of your own )
Mine was: And everywhere you go you're there.
It was fun especially when drinking................
I had heard....none because purple ice cream has no bones.
I first heard THIS odd joke about 20 years ago, but the punchline was "none---because grass does not grow on golf balls".
Either way...funny, funny!
