**Exoplanet with possible life discovered.  
Should elections bar candidates that can’t speak English?**

That would just be Earth-centric discrimination against alien candidates. Do you know that Vegans don’t even have larynges, and communicate only through the coordinated release of intestinal gas? Though, actually, come to think of it, that’s not so different from the politicians we already have…

\*\*Would you wear a kilt if you were not Scottish?  
No pantyhose or stockings…white legs…  
\*\*  
Actually, a kilt and pantyhose would make it a lot worse. And the Scots aren’t exactly known for their tans.

\*\*How do European nations deal with ex-convicts  
Who doesn’t like knives? \*\*

Actually I think that’s a bit harsh.

It’s 11:30AM and my drunk brother just crawled up the stairs.

Crawling up the stairs, speaking upside down…he’s drunk again all right.

And continuing the trend:

\*\*How do European nations deal with ex-convicts
