"Things I've wondered about?"

Posted by seahorse on 03-03-05 at 09:54 AM
Why does the sun lighten our hair,
but darken our skin?

Why can't women put on mascara
with their mouths closed?

Why don't you ever see the headline
"Psychic Wins Lottery"?

Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor,
and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Why is the man who invests all your money
called a broker?

Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic
called rush hour?

Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?

When dog food is new and improved tasting,
who tests it?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

You know that indestructible black box
that is used on airplanes?????
Why don't they make the whole plane
out of that stuff?!

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why are they called apartments
when they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro,
is Congress the opposite of progress?

>Why does the sun lighten our hair, but darken our skin?

No melanin in human hair.

>Why can't women put on mascara with their mouths closed?

There's no minor tightening of the skin around the eyes.

>Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?

The smart ones aren't about to let people know they can do it.

>Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

For the same reason that 'etc' is such a short abbreviation.

>Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?

As long as any patients still die, they haven't gotten it right yet.

>Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor,
>and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Have you ever actually tasted raw lemon juice?

>Why is the man who invests all your money
>called a broker?

I'm not sure, but I think it dates back to 1929.

>Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic
>called rush hour?

Blood, through ears.

>Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?

How do you know it's not mouse-flavored?

>When dog food is new and improved tasting,
>who tests it?

Martha Stewart.

>Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

I'm still trying to figure out how he kept an eye on all those viruses.

>You know that indestructible black box >that is used on

Too dense: the plane would never get off the ground.

>Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

The whole sheep isn't made out of wool.

>Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck
> together?

Because after you live in one for a while, you'll never want other people near you again.


>If con is the opposite of pro,
>is Congress the opposite of progress?

Yes.

Again looking for advice on how to get diet coke off my monitor...



Gothmog is the greatest.
Before anyone gets upset, this is not a laugh at anyone's beliefs per se, it is more of a laugh at the fact that I've never thought about that before, and I suppose it would be implied...
