In the spirit of Occam's Razor, I bring you extremely easy answers to some of life's most perplexing questions.

The humor here is more in you coming up with possible questions that could be asked for each; some of which obviously are not extremely difficult questions at all, or, if difficult, they are being answered glibly.
But, then again, you already knew that...
OK, let's try number 15.
