He's back, and even more average than ever! Average Boy answers random questions asked by YOU, the readers.
My friends are coming over for lunch later this week. They are younger than me, and I don't know what games to play with them. Do you have any ideas?
I can tell you which games NOT to play. "Human sling-shot bike" is not a good game. Don't play "Pin the cat on the dog." Don't play "Hide the smelly sock." All these games didn't end well for me. What I would do is just ask your friends what they like to play. They may have some cool ideas you haven't thought of yet. Have fun!
What's your favorite animal? My favorite is actually chickens.
A lot of kids at school think my favorite animal is a chicken. That's why they're always yelling, "Hey! Chicken!" at me. I smile and say, "Actually, dolphin, but chickens are cool, too." They look really confused and then normally walk away. I guess they don't like dolphins. Anyway, great question!
I love reading your stories! How do you tell a really funny joke without laughing in the middle of it? I love to tell jokes but start laughing and don't finish it.
Anyway, if I'm going to tell a funny joke, I practice it first. Stand in front of the mirror and tell it a few times. By the third time you should be able to tell it without laughing. Hope that helps!
Hi! Have you ever joined a club? Once I made a book club and a girls club. I also joined a Bible club and go to VBS in the summer. Big fan!
I tried to start a book club once but no books showed up. :) I go to several VBS's each summer at different churches. My mom seems to really like signing me up and then dropping me off at these things. Billy and I also started the Stinky Feet club. Actually, we didn't start it... it just sort of happened when we got back from visiting that pig farm. Clubs are cool!
I love chaos, so please send me your story! Oh, and Merry Christmas!
Have you ever forgotten to put baking powder in something you were baking? I have. Do not taste it—it is bland!
Huh, I guess my dad always forgets the baking powder. Everything he makes is bland.
I once made an omelet but forgot to put the eggs in. I was talking to my mom and not paying attention. So basically I ate warm ham, onions and cheese. It wasn't bad, actually.
Yeah... totally. :) My favorite holiday is Christmas also. I love the decorations, the food, the church stuff... and I've got to be honest, the presents don't hurt. Have you ever noticed no one says Arbor Day is their favorite holiday? Maybe if Arbor Day had presents. Ooh, or cool costumes! We could all dress as trees. I've got dibs on the cactus!
Anyway, great question and Merry Christmas!
Who are your BFFs? And is there anyone you don't like?
I won't name names, because that's not polite. And even though Clint, Clay and Donnie don't read the answers on here, I still wouldn't want to say anything bad about them. Great question!
How many pages are in the Bible?
It depends on which Bible you're reading. I've got a pop-up Bible that's only 12 pages long. I like to get my friends to open it up to the Daniel story. It's fun to see who screams when that lion pops out!
My other Bible is 2,018 pages long. I can use it for devotions and weightlifting!
