A man lives on the twelfth floor of an apartment building. Every morning he wakes up, gets dressed, eats, goes to the elevator, takes it down to the lobby, and leaves the building for work. In the evening, he goes through the lobby to the elevator, and, if there is someone else in the elevator he goes back to his floor directly. However, if there is nobody else in the elevator he goes to the 10th floor and walks up two flights of stairs to his apartment. Why?

I knew this one.I actually have triplets, 2 boys 1 girl, and when people ask if the boys are twins I say no, but tell them they are the same age. People can't figure it out until I tell them there is a third. It gets better when they ask how did it happen. I usually tell them it started when I got my wife drunk and took off her clothes. The older ladies give me a dirty look but the younger ones laugh.

For the ones who keep asking questions after I tell them how it started, if I think they are too nosy, I tell them that it happened in a Victorian home, bed and breakfast place and the bed was waist high. I show them the height with my hands. Then I tell them I wasn't even in the bed, just next to it. If they give me another dirty look, I also let them know that I had just been shut off at the bar and still performed like a champ. I usually laugh and walk away at that point. All true btw.

My two sons are 2 years apart. When they were little they looked a lot alike. Of course one was 2 years old and the other was 4. People would actually ask us "Are they twins?" I'd usually reply with "Yeah, but we just don't feed that one."

I was thinking "Are you asleep?" But yours works, too.

You are walking through a field, and you find something to eat. It doesn't have bones, and it doesn't have meat. You pick it up and put it into your pocket. You take it home and put it on a shelf, but 3 day's later it walks away. What is it?
