19. Why do they put Braille on the drive-through bank machines?

Most of them don't.
Think while it's still legal.

4. If man evolved from monkeys and apes, why do we still have monkeys And apes?

We didn't. (man and monkeys evolved from a common ancestor.)

edit:

28. If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?

You've succeeded at failing and failed at the thing you intended to fail at.
i.e.: you intend to fail to bake a cake.
When you succeed at failing to bake the cake, you've succeeded at failing to bake the cake and failed to bake the cake. Since your intention was to fail, you have succeeded; your intention was not to succeed at baking the cake and therefore the fact that you failed at baking the cake is irrelevant except in that you have fulfilled your intention to have some kind of failure.

I hate how some of these questions have stupidly easy answers.

[QUOTE=Victor Van Dort]19. Why do they put Braille on the drive-through bank machines?

Yes, they do. Most drive through ATMs are just normal ATMs located in a driveway.

You haven't been driving for very long.

I believe the original version of this was:
What's another word for thesaurus?
Marsz, marsz, Dąbrowski,
Z ziemi włoskiej do Polski,
Za twoim przewodem
Złączym się z narodem.

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is a word contrived soley for the purpose of being a long word (much like Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch and Gorsafawddacha'idraigodanheddogleddollônpenrhynareurdraethceredigion). It isn't even contrived particularly well, by anyone versed in Greek or Latin.

Sesquipedalophobia is the genuine term for 'fear of long words'. Which is itself quite long, but not quite as ridiculous as hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.
