Why, Why, Why? Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead? Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough money? Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet? Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection? Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard? Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him? Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets? Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'? If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes? Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white? Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale? Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized? Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance? Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try? How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures? When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, 'It's all right?' Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, 'That really hurt, why don't you watch where you're going?' Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over? In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat? And my FAVORITE...... The statistics on sanity is that one out of every four persons are suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you. ****A day without a smile is like a day without sunshine!****
Why not? Because we're idiots. The banks are greedy. Because people don't trust you. Because people want to keep clean even when killing someone. He shaves using natural things. Didn't you hear? Revolvers are explosive. Hey. They are crazy enough to commit suicide. Whoever helped create Modern English. Those apes are not apes at all, but humans dressed in costumes. Colours hate bubbles. They think their refrigerator is MAGICAL. They think their vacuum is being cynical. Plastic bags hate you. Teleportation. We try to be courteous, but FAIL. The table is playing around with you. Humans are whiny. The human race in general has a mental illness. We ****ed up our planet pretty bad.
What site did you copy and paste from? That's the real ass question, What did you get it from?Iconator..while browsing away messages or.. google because they are billionaires and the major search engine label that is so labelized..whatever happened to ask.com?
Probably for the same reason I press harder on the A button on my 360 Controller: Because the button's either loose or completely f***ed Because they're idiots. When my mom does that, she just picks it up and puts it in the vaccuum's sucky-thingy Because it's not entirely enclosed. My friend threw a coin up to one of those lights, and it fell through a tiny slot in the side :)
Because we want to squeeze the last out of our batteries. Because banks are greedy. Because I'd like to see you try and count four billion stars. So it would never ever contaminate the other medical tools. Because he shaves it off with a sharp rock. Because his chest is bullet-proof but not thrown-revolver-proof. Because they would not bump their heads if their plane was somehow shook around because an unconscious kamikaze pilot would likely fail his mission. Mine. The answer to that would take a lot of time. Time I do not feel like spending on that. Same as with the "ape" questuin. Yes. I don't know one single person who does that. Because we don't like to see a machine fail. If a machine can't do it, then who can? Without any effort, I mean. Maybe not on your first try. Because it's not entirely enclosed. Try ramming a couple of ankles in the supermarket and be amazed at the responses, young one. Speak for yourself. Because we don't want to complain about the cold either. Me and my three best friends met at a convention for people with personality disorders and mental illnesses. So it wouldn't really count.
I'm. I'm kind of tempted to leave this open, just because you went through all the trouble of digging this up. actually im kind of impressed
Because most remote controls work using near infrared technology. When a button is pushed, the light emits pulses that are then decoded by the receiving device. When the batteries are low, the pulses would be weaker. We press the buttons harder (and hold them down longer) in an attempt to make more power go to the light and increase the emissions. Because the job of a bank is to be the middle man between you and the person you're trying to pay. When you try to withdraw money that isn't there, the bank has to work out what to do. Some of the tasks bankers take on is examining all the Overdrafts made in a day, reviewing the policies of the account holders, and deciding whether to deny the transaction or let it go through and expect you to pay them back for settling your debt. If they deny the transaction, they're withholding the money you agreed to pay from the recipient, (at which point you, the intended recipient, and the bank begin getting into legal issues) while if your policy has overdraft protection, they pay the money themselves on the condition you pay them back shortly. An Overdraft Fee is their way to compensate themselves for the extra work caused by an attempted exchange of money that isn't there. Yes, it's dumb that the charge is applied to an already overdrawn account, but how else are they supposed to collect said money? And yes, it's dumb that the fee is as high as it is, but as has been said already, banks are greedy. XD Because A. everyone knows the universe is endless and there are over four billion stars within it, while the state of drying paint is far more fluctuating and the status changes rapidly. B. Humans have the capacity to be either lying or wrong, and therefore mistrust and suspicion are deeply rooted into our natures. This mixed with a need for some degree of control in our lives causes people to have a subconscious urge to check and see that yes, indeed, the paint is still wet. It hasn't changed since the last time you checked, you aren't lying, and you aren't wrong. Because even though the victim is already going to die, there is some level of professionalism and sanitation involved in every aspect of the process. Also because people other than the victim are going to be handling said needle. With all the precautions they take to avoid collateral harm, sterile needles would be one of them. Also: Spoiler Some people actually can't grow beards. XD I know someone who's been trying to grow a beard for years and years and barely has a thin goatee and a mustache. His hair's around Tarzan's length, though. It might be that Tarzan's like that. XD Because the amount of reaction time is different. People have more time to react to a thrown object than to a bullet, and people are psychologically conditioned to react certain ways to certain events. Even if you're invincible, there's still a chance your brain will see an incoming object and send the signal to duck, subconsciously, while if you're staring at a gun and you have time to prepare yourself for it to be fired, knowing it can't hurt you, and then no time to react once it is fired, you don't duck. Because A. It's already been said that a kamikaze pilot might run into trouble on the way to their mission, and a helmet reduces the risk of head injury on the way. But B, helmets also play an important role in noise attenuation, mics and headphones are usually mounted into the helmet, many helmets contain a sun-visor so the pilot doesn't have to worry about glaring light, and some modern helmets even have a mounted display and night vision support. Because 'Lisp' is derived from the Old English wlispian (recorded in āwlyspian), from wlisp (adjective) 'lisping', of imitative origin; compare with Dutch lispen and German lispeln. Middle English Dictionary offers two citations in which 'lyspynge' is glossed blesus or blesura, which is clearly cognate with 'wlisp.' According to Lewis & Short, blaesus means "lisping, stammering, hesitating in utterance, speaking indistinctly." Blaesus is there derived from Greek βλαισός, which the "Greek Word Study Tool" at Perseus defines as meaning 'bent or distorted.' Therefore, the etymology of 'lisp' seems to lean towards simply meaning 'distorted,' as in a distorted form of speech. Because I believe the theory is that people branched off from apes, evolving into a new species while the original species continued to exist as-is. A much simpler form of evolution that can be used as an example is the evolving of dog-breeds from other dog-breeds. Just because labradoodles exist doesn't necessarily mean labradors and poodles must therefore cease to exist. Or that's the theory, anyway. XD Because the 'bubbles' are merely surfactant foam. Surfactants are usually organic compounds that are amphiphilic, meaning they contain both hydrophobic groups and hydrophilic groups. Therefore, a surfactant contains both a water-insoluble (or oil-soluble) component and a water-soluble component. Surfactants will diffuse in water and adsorb at interfaces between air and water or at the interface between oil and water, in the case where water is mixed with oil. The water-insoluble hydrophobic group may extend out of the bulk water phase, into the air or into the oil phase, while the water-soluble head group remains in the water phase. 'Bubbles.' Since it's a chemical reaction, the color of the flakes or beads or even gels and powders used to contain the surfactants doesn't matter. It's just a form that the surfactant is presented in, to hold the chemicals until released in the water, and the color of the foam is unrelated. Considering that most mattresses last a good ten years before needing to be replaced, mattress stores need to take advantage of any chance of selling their wares that comes along. By having sales often, they can convince people to buy their mattresses instead of competitors, and also because if your mattress is getting old, but you still have a good year or two left before you need it replaced, you may be more likely to replace it early if you think you're getting a good deal. So if you buy a new mattress every seven years instead of ten, you're buying more mattresses. Also: Spoiler This commercial ran a mattress store out of business in record time: The reason people return to a refrigerator after having dismissed the contents before is not out of a belief that new things have materialized, but because as you get hungrier, more of what you have looks appetizing. Sometimes you go to the fridge and don't see anything instant or pre-made, like leftover pizza or frozen burritos, and so dismiss it as empty, only to wonder if you might have enough ingredients to cook something later on. Therefore, you return to the fridge. Or maybe you dismiss the jar of pickles upon your first investigation, only to decide ten minutes later that you might want a pickle after all. I have never seen a person do this. XD I was trained to never vacuum a piece of string in the first place, at least, not with a traditional vacuum, as it can entangle in the spinners and cause the vacuum to stick. If I'm running a traditional vacuum and I see a piece of string, I pick it up and throw it away by hand. If you're using a hose vacuum and it fails to pick up string, than your hose is clogged or your vacuum is full, and you need to clear it or you'll have no suction. XD Because plastic bags are made by 'blown film extrusion.' In Blown film production process - polythene melt is extruded through an annular slit die, usually vertically, to form a thin walled tube. Air is introduced via a hole in the centre of the die to blow up the tube like a balloon, into the tube, causing it to expand and form a bubble. Mounted on top of the die, a high-speed air ring blows onto the hot film to cool it. The tube of film then continues upwards, continually cooling, until it passes through nip rolls where the tube is flattened to create what is known as a ' lay-flat' tube of film. This lay-flat or collapsed tube is then taken back down the extrusion ' tower' via more rollers. The tube of film is made into bags by sealing across the width of film and cutting or perforating to make each bag. Since they're lying flat, with no air-bubbles, when they're sealed and perforated, and then packaged together in that state and stored that way until use, the surface-on-surface-adhesion makes them stick together until air is introduced between the two sheets, which is also why people wave the bags in the air a few times after getting the ends opened, before you ask. XD Because bugs are stupid; they tend to crawl into tight places to get what they want, and then after they've got it, they try to fly out. This is the idea behind most wasp-traps as well. You put something sweet into a cylinder with a narrow opening. The wasp lands on the cylinder, crawls inside, takes what it wants, and then tries again and again and again to fly out through the narrow opening until it dies. The light fixtures have small openings, the bugs crawl inside, and it's the same for them, if they don't die from the lightbulbs first. XD The reaction of any given person when their ankle is rammed with a shopping cart varies person by person. XD The reason some people say 'it's alright' is because in most cases, the person ramming you with the cart did it on accident and usually feel guilty or embarrassed. Occasionally, the person who was hit with the cart is empathetic or sympathetic, and will assure the offender that it's alright to spare them further guilt or embarrassment. Sometimes it's also passive-aggressive, and the person only says "it's alright" while their body language suggests otherwise, in an attempt to cause further guilt or embarrassment. Sometimes people say 'it's alright' because it doesn't really matter and they'll have forgotten about it in ten minutes. Sometimes people only say it because social behavior dictates that you verbally forgive people who apologize for their actions. Either because of a lack of hand-eye coordination, a lack of response time, or both. When something is falling, you have to subconsciously perceive the angle and speed at which it falls, predict how fast you will be able to move, and determine the precise location you should reach for in order to catch it. Some of us are very good at this, and I usually catch whatever is falling and don't knock things over on the way. Except when I'm not wearing my glasses, because that throws off my hand-eye coordination, as one of my eyes drifts to the side and my perception is off. This makes it so I have the tendency to misjudge distances, and will do things like bump into doorframes when walking through a door, trip over things I thought were slightly more to the left, or, of course, knock something over when attempting to catch the falling item next to it. Because some humans lack the concept of 'balance.' XD When we feel too hot, we attempt to feel cooler, and oftentimes go to the extreme and make it too cold, and vice versa. Like when someone gets into a freezing car and turn the heat all the way on or when they enter a hot house and turn the AC on to blast. Part of it is a mistaken belief that doing this will change the temperature faster, when in reality, it will change at the same rate of time, only will continue to change after the desired temperature is achieved. So the person isn't really trying to reach the same temperature in winter as was too hot in summer, they're trying to be comfortable faster and failing miserably. XD Your favorite question isn't a question and that bugs me. XD If one out of four people are insane, it doesn't follow that one of your group of four must be insane. It could be that each member of the group of friends happens to be in a separate group of four and they happen to be one of the sane ones, leaving four sane members in your group. I am one of four sisters. If I was one of four friends, who each were one of four siblings, it's possible that all four of us are one of the sane members in our group. It's also possible that all four of us happen to be the insane, in which case, our group of friends would be four out of four insane friends. Also, yesterday my sister told me that I'm probably the most sane of the four of us, because she and another sister have major anxiety and the third sister has literally every sign of being a sociopath, so... Yeah. XD My question is, why on earth did I actually do any of this. XD
The day a mattress isn't on sale is the say we die. Sofa's as well, DFS are our overlords without us knowing it
Why are we still here...? Just to suffer....? Every night...I can feel my leg.... And my arm......even my fingers.....
I find it easier not to question anything about our existence. It makes life a lot more monotonous too.
