How many legs are there in a horse? - Answer: Infinite Number

Horses have an even number of legs. Behind they have two legs, and in front they have fore-legs. This makes six legs, which is certainly an odd number of legs for a horse. But the only number that is both even and odd is infinity. Therefore, horses have an infinite number of legs.

what a pathetic language!

isn't it ridiculous to say: after dark? a more logical phrase should be "after light"?
More ridiculous examples:
 
underwater --- in the water?
underground --- in the ground?

Weird Language

Suppose a man sits in the car. How do you descrbe the location of these objects: Hand, Blood, Body?
You may say,
There is a man in the car.  The car has wrapped the man.
A hand is on the body. or A lump of fresh of the body is attached onto the two hands.
A gallon of blood is inside the car that wraps the body of the man who is supported by the driver's seat. There is a gallon of blood inside the man who sits inside the car.
 
But why may we say one thing instead of the other?
