"Why do Kamikazees wear helmets?"
Why not?

"When I call a company and the IVR tells me:' Your call is very important to us...'. How do they know, they dont even know who is calling...and they dont even know WHY I'm calling....And if it WAS important somebody would be there to answer me."

"When poeple say:' how's it going?!' they really dont give a ****. And on top of that people always answer yes beacause if they ever say 'No...' they know they'll have to start a conversation."
In the pre-historic times, people used to say "gruff" to each other when they met. Someone thought that "gruff" was not polite enough and said "how's it going?" But he never thought that asking such a thing would demand some sort of answer. But then, those were the pre-historic times.

"What's another word for thesaurus?"

"Why is it 'a pair of pants' or a 'pair of glasses' but not 'a pair of shirt'?"
Because someone one day had the idea to join two pieces of pants and two pieces of glass, but the shirt were always one thing only.
"Why do people say 'What's up?'? What they hell kind of question is that?!"
It means: "what is it that is fluctuating right here right now, hung in the air like particles of dust or notes of a song?"
"Why do Europeans drive on the left side of the road and everyone else on the right?"
Already answered.
"Also, whose idea was it to put an 's' in 'lisp'?"
