Why is a fire truck red?
"Because they have eight wheels and four people on them, and four plus eight is twelve. And there are twelve inches in a foot, and one foot is a ruler. And Queen Elizabeth was a ruler, and Queen Elizabeth was also a ship. And the ship sailed across the seas. And, in the seas are fish, and fish have fins. And the Finns fought the Russians, and the Russians are red. And fire trucks are always "russian" around (according to the Monty Pythonesque application of principles of logic and etymology)."

The random "stupid" question above is provided courtesy of my bff's daughter who got the comical "stupid answer" by asking S-voice, an application available on most smart phones, about the color of fire trucks.
