User blog:802kup/Questions I have

This is my first blog post on hear. I just have questions about some episodes and the whole show in general.

Episode questions

1.In "Hooked on Monkey Phonics" how did the boys even get their hands on duct tape, and not even get caught for what they were doing? Plus how did Mark even manage to get to his feet and even move while taped to a bench?

2. In "Professor Chaos", how did the teacher not even notice Butters and Professor Chaos were the same person?

3. In "Mysterion Rises", when the cult leaders asked the Goth kids to give them assistance in killing Mysterion(Kenny), what did they even mean? Why would it take a group of 6 to kill one individual?

4. In "Scott Tenorman Must Die" why was the pony even licking or biting the hotdog when horses are herbivores?

General questions

1. Why in South Park, does the ground always appear to be covered in snow? Well the answer is probably obvious, it's somewhere in the Mountains where it's usually very cold I assume.

2. Why didn't they make the adults look more like the kids as in the use geometric shapes and such?

3. Do the characters have a specific birth year? Wikipedia States that Stan was born in 1987.

4. Could there possibly be any positive messages that may have been overlooked?

Bonus question- Have any of the characters at some point cracked their knuckles? This is a weird "guilty pleasure" of mine; Animated characters cracking their knuckles.

Thank you, I'll understand if they can't be answered.
