From why termites eat to wood to whether conjoined twins need to buy separate movie tickets,
we answer some of your most burning questions about life.
- Hey, I’m Doop!
- Yo, it’s Pringle the One!
- I’m reading out the facts!
- And I’m reading out the fun!
- * - You guys are an embarrassment to this planet.
- Ooooooh!
This is going to be the BEST episode, I can feel it!
10 – Kemesha Brown-Hamlton Do conjoined twins need to buy separate movie tickets?
- Wait…
Does that mean they get a free extra bag of popcorn when they watch a movie?
D-does that mean they get to watch the movie twice!?
- I don’t think it works like that, Pringle.
- Hold on - I gotta try this!
- *Pringle groan noise* - *
- Hey man!
- Hey, how’s it going?
- * - ... Okay.
That was pretty cool.
· Yes, conjoined twins would need to purchase separate movie tickets because they are two
separate individuals.
Even if they only took up one seat - they each pay their own tax and other bills - so
they would need to buy two tickets.
- * - Ahhhhh, dang it!
9 – Mark schaefer What was life like before cars?
- Slow.
Did you know that the fastest things on the planet before cars were snails?
- * - Woah!
Slow down there little buddy!
What’s your rush?
- * GRRRRRRRR!
GOT TO GET TO MY FAMILY AAGGHHHHH - CALM DOWN SNAIL!
JEEZ!
· Before cars made travel more convenient, populations were concentrated around large
cities, with no need for suburbs.
Animals such as horses were the main form of transportation, which made the streets
safer to walk – but the “waste” caused major hygiene problems.
- * - Heeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllppppppp!
- * - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

8 – Dolanlover5674 Why do termites eat wood?
- Hey now, if it’s good enough for them, it must be good enough for us, right?
- BLUAAAAARGHH - *
- Oh my goodness, Pringle, are you ok?
Don’t eat that!
- * - Don wobby I’m fime!
· Termites actually absorb the ‘cellulose’ from wood as it is a good source of energy
and moisture.
It is also plentiful since most other animals cannot eat it.
Termites however, have developed the ability to break down the wood to obtain the nutrients.
- * - Here Pringle, try this.
Waaaay better than wood!
- * - *
- What the heck is this nasty looking thing— - *
- OH MY GOD!
This is amazing!
What is this - what is it - what is this tell me please, PLEASE
- Um… cup...cake—?
- MOOOORE—
7 – Jillianthegreat25331 Are puffins and penguins considered the same thing?
- (Pringle: try to voice this like the host of a political show, so, posh, elegant) Excellent
question.
We are sitting down today to debate the differences between puffins and penguins.
Professor Puffin, your argument please.
- * - SQUAK SQUAK SQUAK!
- The right honourable Professor Puffin’s argument is thus: Puffins da best, Penguins
are poop.
Ha.
- Lord Admiral Penguin, your rebuttal please.
- * - Squawk.
- Admiral, please!
There’s no need for that language.
· · No, puffins and penguins are separate animals, each broken up into a variety of
different species.
The main difference is their habitat: puffins live in the Northern Hemisphere, while Penguins
are found in the Southern Hemisphere.
Also, Puffins can fly while Penguins can’t.
6 – Mega_Turtles Why are male Calicos (cats) rare?
· Because they hide so well!
But don’t worry, I know where to look!
- * - *
- Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
- * - AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
- * · Only one in 3000 Calicos is male due to
their Chromosomes, which contain the genes that determine gender.
To be Calico a cat must have two X Chromosomes – which would make then female.
However, sometimes a male gets an additional X Chromosome giving them XXY, and the possibility
of carrying the Calico trait.
- * - Do cats eat cupcakes too?
- Erm - no - they eat cat food.
- * - Oh!
Looks good!
- * - Oh my gosh, Doopie!
This stuff is even better than that cupcake!
You want some?
- N-no no, I’m good thanks.
- Your loss!
- *
5 – nehuiloco What’s the difference between a parasol and an umbrella?
- * - Oh no!
Quick Doopie, take my hat!
It’ll stop you from getting soaked.
- * - Aww, thanks Pringle, that’s really kind
of you- - *
- Pringle!
What’s it doing?!
PRINGLE!
HEEEEEEELP!
- Ah darn!
I forgot it does that sometimes...
Well, look on the bright side!
At least there’s no lightning!
- * - Uh-oh.
· Parasols are only for protection against the sun and are made from non-waterproof material
like silk.
Umbrellas on the other are waterproof, and made for protection against the rain – they
aren’t usually designed for use in the sun.
- * - Heh - heh.
My bad…
um…
cupcake?
4 – Gavin9325 What would happen if there were no other planets apart from Earth?
- Well for starters, Planet Dolan would not exist.
That means Doopie would still be stuck on that normal, boring Planet Earth.
She would never have been able to meet amazing dudes like Hellbent, Nixxiom and Grgak.
- Oh - OH!
- Gosh - er - yeah, it sure would be awful not knowing those - er- charming guys - ha
ha…
- And you also wouldn’t have met me, Doopie.
I’m pretty charming too, if I do say so myself.
- That’s true!
You are very special to me, Pringle.
- * - You heard it here first folks!
The lady thinks Pringle the One is special.
Oh yeeaah!
· If Earth were the only planet in the solar system, but the Sun and moon were still there,
there would still probably be life on Earth, however there would be an increased chance
of being hit by an asteroid.
This is because Jupiter, being such a large planet, helps to pull space debris away from
Earth.
- * - So Doopie, how special am I to you?
- Aww Pringle, you know I couldn’t ask for a better FRIEND.
- * - Oh my goodness!
Are you ok!?
- * - Yep, Yeah, I’m fine!
I’m perfectly fine!
Why wouldn’t I be?
3 – voulasty Why does metal rust and gold does not?
- You know, I like to try out different forms but what bugs me is when I put on my iron
skin and it rains, I get all rusty!
- * - Ooofff!
- Grrr!
- Come on now!
- You know, Pringle.
You coooooould try having gold skin.
- Hmm - Do you think that would help?
Ah what the heck, I’ll give it a shot!
- * - Ha haa!
Dang, look at me Doopie, I’m looking stylish!
- Gold really seems to suit you, Pringle!
- Oh yeah?
Hah, I bet all the ladies of Planet Dolan will be swooning over this golden boy!
Yeeeeaaaaaah.
- * · In fact only metals containing iron rust,
due to a chemical reaction that occurs with exposure to oxygen, causing it to decompose.
Gold however is a pure metal that does not contain any iron.
It forms a thin protective layer after exposure to oxygen that preserves the metal.
- Ok-ok!
Now Pringle, can you transform into emerald?
Pleeeeeeeeease.
- Oh - er - Sure.
One second.
- * - *
- Ha ha!
Ok!
Now turn into Diamond!
- * - Oooooo!
Ok!
Now Platinum!
- * - RUBY!
- * - SAPPHIRE, DO SAPPHIRE NEXT!
- (Pringle is desperate for air after exhausting himself shapeshifting) D-Doopie…
I…
I can’t…
I can’t change form that quickly…
I…
I need a break.
- I SAID, DO SAPPHIRE NEXT!
- ...uhh boy….ugh
2 – xxXLuigiGodXxx How do fan mechanics work?
How does their spinning blow air at you?
- * - Well I have a fan right here, let’s take
a closer look and see if we can’t figure out how they work!
Hmmmmm….
- * - BLLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTT!
- Grgak!
Is that you?
What the heck are you doing in there?
- Err - Hey there guys just making some air!
Haha I’m your biggest fan, hey, Pringle heh heh, hey Pringle heh my dude can you do
me a solid and end mah life?
Pls?
Pls Pringle be a buddy, come on my man.
- *
· It’s the shape and angle of the blade, plus the rotation of the fan that helps to
push air outwards.
The air behind the fan is coming from a wider range and moves slowly.
The spinning blades create a high-pressure area, which pushes air through a much narrower
space, making it move quicker.
- * - Oh Doopie my ally my friend my amigo you
are very kind thank you hehe for the sweet release from this veil of tears heh heh no
more suffering ok goodbye haha - *
- He’s a strange sort, isn’t he?
1 – iViking90 Do all Owls hoot?
- Oh do you mean a hooter?
Those funny feathered creatures?
You know, Doopie you kind of remind me of a hooter.
- Priiiiiiiiiiiingle, nooooooooo, don’t say that!
- Why?
You’re just like them!
Doopie the hooter!
I bet you would look at home with a load of hooters!
- * - Nooooooooo!
Pringle, you’re making it worse!
Stooooooooop!
- Doopie the big hooter who-over!
- Pringle stop it!
I’m not a hooter!
- * · No, not all owls hoot, instead they make
a variety of ‘vocalisations’ to communicate.
These can include anything from shrieking to hissing.
The ‘Great Horned Owl’ and the ‘Barred Owl’ do hoot, and it can be a territorial
call or a reminder to their mate of their lifelong bond.
- * - Look Doopie!
Now I’m a hooter!
We can be big hooters together!
Hooty hoot hoot!
Doopie and Pringle the big hooty hooters!
Hooty hoooooooot hoot!
- * - Maybe I should’ve stayed on Earth...
