น้ำอะไรขี้เหร่ how to explain, please?

Can anyone tell me the meaning of this expression? I know what ขี้เหร่ means, but I don't get the idiom when it is joined with นำ้อะไร

น้ำอะไรขี้เหร่ = What kind of water that ugly? น้ำอะไร = What kind of water, ขี้เหร่ = ugly
This question is some kind of an IQ testing question. Usually this kind of question is for joke and it "plays" with the language a lot.


An example is :

Question : ปีอะไรมีหลายสี? "What year that has many colors?" ปีอะไร = What year, มี = has, หลายสี = many colors

Answer : ปีโป้หลายอัน "Many of Piipoes" ปีโป้ = See below** , หลายอัน = many

**ปีโป้ is the name of the very first jelly snack manufacturer in Thailand and it comes with many colors.

This is just one of the ways we play with Thai language.
