      Fun fact, neckties were originally just repurposed hangman's nooses from people who narrowly escaped. See the documentary "The Watchmen" for the true story of Hooded Justice. And neckties.

    I still think this segment is awful. First: The Answers are never funny. Second: Sensible people are debating whether it should be legal at all to put a foto of your child on social media even though they are too young to consent. And yet here we are, putting them on national tv to cater to parents who want their five minutes of fame. Let's face it: None of thise kids actually came up with those questions themselves. It's always the parents.
