Ask a question that's yes or no, or true or false.
Make it a trivia type question. Make it so that both answers is wrong. The goal is to find a loophole in the question above you so that one of the answers actually is right. I'll start.
Does Britain use the pound?

WRONG! Britain uses the metric system, so they use the gram and the kilogram.
And next time, come up with a question a little more original.

If you said no there is no counter argument because the English use the sterling not the pound?

The egg. It evolved and the first egg was hatched from a species extremely similar to a chicken, but it wasn't a chicken.

Neither, unless you want to define light as something like a single lumen, which is still pretty damn "dark".

To get to the other side.
Is a lie a lie if everybody know that it's false, but act as if it were true?

Sally lives in an apartment building on the 9th floor. She gets on the elevator (Elevator, get in on! XD), but only reaches for the button to the 6th floor, why?

She is too short to reach button 9 and is forced to take the stairs from 6th floor to 9th floor.
Do I have any more questions to ask?

yes, because a regular human can not know absolutely everything, and so there will always be some type of question for you to ask. It may be a simple "Why?" but there will always be questions

Lol, I thought that the fact that I just did ask a question would be evidence enough, but 'yes' is the correct answer. Your turn.
