Why does it hurt so much to stub your toe?


message 452: by Esther (new)

Esther (eshchory) | 575 comments Becasue being so small and far from the head toes have serious inferiority issues. Bashing them into furniture, and other low objects, is the last straw - the final insult.
They have their revenge by causing maximum pain forcing you to pay them some attention by acknowledging their existence.

Why does food always taste better when some one else cooks it?


message 453: by Atishay (new)

Atishay | 1451 comments Because the tongue hasn't got a clue of what's gonna hit it.

Why do we scratch our nose?

Why is the earth round?


message 455: by Sara ♥ (last edited Apr 12, 2009 02:19PM) (new)

Sara ♥ (saranicole) Because if it was a cube, it would look too much like a Borg ship, which would just be scary.

Why does Easter dinner always take longer to cook than you plan, even when you give yourself PLENTY of time?

*Cook, ham! Cook!*

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments Because if you weren't stressed out, it wouldn't be a festive dinner.

Why does the Easter bunny bring eggs? why isn't it the Easter Chicken?


message 457: by Sara ♥ (last edited Apr 14, 2009 04:52AM) (new)

Sara ♥ (saranicole) Chickens lay ("bring") eggs all year round; for Easter, the animals like to mix it up. The bunnies get to pretend to "bring" eggs for a day, although the chickens were worries that the bunny eggs would get confused with their own, so they made a deal that the bunnies' eggs had to be colored. There isn't a SINGLE "Easter Bunny", per se. There are several bunnies assigned to different areas of the world. It's more of an Easter Bunny Coalition, if you will. Each year, a new bunny will get a turn at giving their eggs away...

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments Too much thought! too much brain activity :-)

The cats and dogs don't wish to converse with each other.

If cavemen were gorrillas, why don't we get more ?




message 460: by yellowbird (last edited Apr 14, 2009 02:00PM) (new)

yellowbird | 55 comments because nobody has bothered to tell modern gorillas that the secret is to "..bang the rocks together, guys!"

If you had a car that could drive itself, would it eventually ask for it's own keys one day, and say, "I'll be back by eleven, twelve at the latest."?


message 461: by Sara ♥ (new)

Sara ♥ (saranicole) Knowing my luck, probably so!

Why are people so rude to sales clerks sometimes?


message 462: by Apokripos (new)

Apokripos (apokalypse) Because they always gets on the way of the costumers when in truth they don't need assistance....

Are blues singers blue babies when they're born?


message 463: by Atishay (new)

Atishay | 1451 comments No, its the way in which they see and talk things. When they see, they see everything against a background of blue. (In some babies, the background is often so dark shade of blue that they can't discern a small dark object in the foreground. This is a hereditary problem and is called 'bluetopsy'. It has been found that this defect can reduce with age, in which the background color starts drifting towards more lighter shades of blue, provided that the child constantly sings 'blues' for the rest of his/her life. In some rare cases, the condition doesn't improve and most often, these cases become rappers).

Why is it so hard to think of a stupid question?


message 464: by [deleted user] (new)

You have exhausted your share of stupidity studying 'blues singers' and 'rappers'
:-P

Why did someone create this thing called marriage?



message 465: by Apokripos (new)

Apokripos (apokalypse) They thought it was the cool thing then, but I guess no one's riding that bandwagon lately...

When do crazy know they're crazy? Do they know the symptoms?


message 466: by [deleted user] (new)

Felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to find no one."Ghost?" I called out calmly. Some time later someone walked in on me looking for the Ghost calling out "Don't be afraid to reveal yourself!". And the look on that persons face might be how I knew when to realize you've gone crazy.

Why can't you fool everyone all the time?


message 467: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments It would require too much energy, and we are a lazy bunch of people.

Why do we say a heart breaks? it stays intact inside your chest, or else you'd die..


message 468: by [deleted user] (new)

It doesn't actually break. It's just taking a break ..

Why are we born without the ability to converse?


message 469: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments we are conversing, we only speak a different language than the other human beings. Maybe it is an alien language that we forget the more time we spend oustide of the womb and among the other adult humans.

Why are aliens thought to be green?


message 470: by Atishay (new)

Atishay | 1451 comments Because conversation is the only way two stupid people can share their stupid ideas.

Why do we have names?


message 471: by Sara ♥ (new)

Sara ♥ (saranicole) Because they like to fly around horse butts. Makes me glad to be a human.

ALSO, I wanted to comment on the lack of ability to converse when we're born. My friend is teaching her baby sign language (I hear it's all the rage nowadays), and her SEVEN-MONTH-OLD will sign "milk" when she's hungry. Studies are showing that really really small children understand a WHOLE lot more than they can communicate.

Why did some cultures evolve using a fork and some evolve using chopsticks?


message 472: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments because those hwo use the chopsticks now, started out witha fork too, only it broke, and since they figured they could use these 2 bits of sticks also, why bother forging them together?

Why do they say tomato is a fruit?


message 473: by Atishay (last edited Apr 15, 2009 02:10PM) (new)

Atishay | 1451 comments Because tomato was being boycotted by all its colleague veggies and this innocent, sweet and cute little thing had nowhere to go. So, fruits took pity and adopted the tomato into their family.

Why do we speak so much ?


message 474: by Rose (new)

Rose (roseo) we must.

why do we forget what we came into a room to get and have to go back to the other room to remember what it was?


message 475: by [deleted user] (new)

same reason we retrace our steps to the last place we remember seeing/having an object that is lost.

A pessimist says it's half empty, An optimist says its half full. Who says it's half empty and half full?


message 476: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments the realist.

Why did the chicken cross the road? (just to stay at philosphical questions..) ;-)


message 477: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments because we can always blackmail them that way.

Why do we care what other people think about us?


message 478: by Atishay (new)

Atishay | 1451 comments Because people think before speaking and teens don't think before speaking. So, that's a divide.

Why everything we like to eat is junk ?


message 479: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments it is only an illusion, in reality it is an octogon.

Sara ♥ (saranicole) Because food is so delicious, we can't help ourselves!

Why is a hamburger called a hamburger, when there's no ham in a burger?


message 481: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments because even though air is yummy, our body wants some fattening food also.

Why can't we float above the ground?


message 482: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments Because not everyone is talented enough to steal!

I'm reposting Saranicole's question, because it got skipped:

Why is a hamburger called a hamburger, when there's no ham in a burger?


message 483: by yellowbird (new)

yellowbird | 55 comments Are you SURE there's no ham in a burger?

If you knew what was really in a hot dog, would you eat it anyway?


message 484: by [deleted user] (new)

I know what's in it and that's why I won't eat it.

Who made the rule that only females can paint their nails?


message 485: by Rose (new)

Rose (roseo) Females.

Where do lost things go?


message 486: by Apokripos (new)

Apokripos (apokalypse) In the Cemetry of Forgotten Things... don't go there... Some says when you go there you'll be forgotten...


When do we know that we've done the right thing?

Do dragons exist?


message 494: by Stella (new)

Stella (stella_exlibris) | 458 comments of course they do, in nightmares and fairy tales!

Why don't we believe in things we don't see?

why do we have a sky "


So when someone asks why, we can say "because the sky is so high"
Example:
A.I am not hungry.
Q.Why?
A. Because the sky is so high.

Why don't we believe in things we don't see?"


I think we do believe but we keep it a secret. I believe in ghosts and yet I haven't seen one and I don't admit that either.

Why do we sometimes not believe what we see?

Sara ♥ (saranicole) I think Oxymoron is that guy who does the OxiClean commercials...
