Inside the magic 8 ball?

[Xede]

How many replies are there inside a magic 8 ball? Don't have one with me right now. Anybody know how many distinct replies, and what's actually inside there? eg, if there are 20 replies, are there 5 4-sided objects floating inside, or 1 20-sider, or what?

There are 5 little pyramids in there. But what they don't want you to know is that the liquid surrounding them is liquid plutonium.

Time to make a fortune selling magic 8-ball's to Saddam in that case. 😀


He'll probably just say "The check's in the mail" and not pay like last time though 🙁

Yup. The 8-Ball conspiracy or the &quot;Fortune Files&quot; as some right-wing groups call it.




<< since when was it cheap? >>



It is only expensive on the illegal black market. The government has been hiding its plutonium in 8-Balls so the Greene party doesn't find out about it.
