lets start off slow with this one.

Why is it better to have round manhole covers than square ones?

because corners are scary... boo.

More then likely because the sewage pipes are round they figured it was just easier this way.

so they can't fall in

A square manhole cover placed vertically could fall through the manhole if it was placed in the hole diagonally.

Deep in the forest was found the body of a man who was wearing only swimming trunks, snorkel and facemask. The nearest lake was 8 miles away and the sea was 100 miles away. How had he died?
