Array 
How Come? --game-- Simple rules. Ask a question, phrased as "How come _________?"
(Try to be original. And questions for which the answer is easily Googled are discouraged. Questions asking "Why" rather than "How come" are disqualified.)
The next player must post an answer that is either (1) correct, or (2) amusing. That player may then post their own question.
I'll start:
How come electric eels don't electrocute themselves? Just because you have the right, that doesn't mean it is right.

Because people tend to carry things (bags, phones, etc.) in their right hands, so they use their left hands to hold on to rails, open doors, etc. So they tend to walk to the left.
How come right-handed people tend to carry things around in their right hands, when they need those hands to write, shake hands, salute, open doors, do things, etc.? Just because you have the right, that doesn't mean it is right.
