Amusing myself with Voice Meme

shadowkatRead all the voice posts on my flist, which were highly entertaining. Then tried it myself and it was not that entertaining, because I had already listened to everyone else's answers and ended up invariably mimicing theirs more or less.
There are some rather funny responses though, my favorites are below:
What do you call throwing toilet paper on a house? a misdemeanor.
What do you call rain falling when the sun is still out? a bloody miracle or run falling when the sun is still out? (it's a sun-shower...although it makes no logical sense, but probably doesn't matter)
What do you call a cart to pick up groceries? a trolly
What do you call an oval shaped spider with extreemly long legs? bloody frightening. (actually after you've seen a tarantula the size of your foot, not so much. Although having had a whole jar of the things dumped on my head when I was a little tyke - I'd go with the bloody frightening. Everyone else calls them Daddy Long-Legs.)
What do you say to a large group of people? (this is a poorly worded question, folks. It should be - what do you call a large group of people when greeting them.) I say, uh, hey, uh hello..guys, everyone. (LOL! Which is exactly the type of answer that question inspires.)
What do you call a carbonated or bubbly beverage? Beer.
Hilarious. I've included my incredibly lame version beneath the cut.

Note it is not as funny as what is above. I read too many of these before doing it myself. So I wasn't witty. Besides do witty better in writing.
Oh here's the meme in case you want to do it too:
Say the following words: Aunt, Roof, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting Image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pyjamas, Caught, Orange, Coffee, Direction, Naturally, Aluminium and Herbs.
What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bug that when you touch it, curls into a ball?
What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
What do you call gym shoes?
What do you say to address a group of people?
What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
What do you call your grandparents?
What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
What is the thing you change the TV channel with?
Personally, I think they should have had words like Iowa, Arkansas, New York, Missouri (because people pronounce those states in interesting ways. Maybe I should do another one and show you? My Granny said "folks" for large group of people, Io-way for Iowa, Missoura for Missouri. And in New York - people pronounce it New Yourk. Also in Kansas? People said Ar- Kansas as opposed to Arkansaw. There's also "creek" and "crick" - which my neice makes fun of my Mom doing all the time.)
