“Fight Against Stupidity And Bureaucracy”
.
It’s Tuesday and we have another selection of those questions that are worth asking, but hardly anyone asks. Should we just accept thing the way they are, or should we start to question what is happening around us a little more?
Here we go. Enjoy!
You know the expression, ‘Don’t quit your day job?’
Well what do you say to people that work nights?
Why is the ‘0’ on a phone after the ‘1’ and not before the ‘1’?
If the president were gay, would his husband be the first man?
If you were a genie and a person asked you this wish, ‘I wish you would not grant me this wish’ what would you do?
Did Noah have woodpeckers on the ark? If he did, where did he keep them?
Why doesn’t the armpit hair have split ends?
Do pyromaniacs like to wear blazers?
If you don’t pay your exorcist, do you get repossessed?
Why is something funny called a ‘knee-slapper’ when you actually slap your thigh?
Why do we teach kids that violence is not the answer and then in school have them read about wars that solved problems?
If money doesn’t grow on trees then why do banks have branches?”
Why does someone believe you when you say something like, “There are four billion stars,” but check when you say the paint is wet?
What would happen if Batman got bitten by a vampire?
Why can’t we spell creativity however we want?
Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?”
Has your mate ever called you at work to ask where the remote control is?
Was the person who invented the Express Lane at the grocery store ever properly thanked?
Why do you seldom if ever see ads for advertising companies?
Why is it that when things get wet they get darker, even though water is clear?
Why doesn’t McDonald’s sell hotdogs?
===============================
Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?”
Unlikely
WOW! I can’t wait to grow up. Thanks for commenting.
Why do we know who assassinated Lincoln and Kennedy and not McKinley?
I thought we did know who assassinated McKinley, it’s Kennedy that the doubt still lingers over.
It’s not that we don’t know it’s just that Leon doesn’t get the credit he so richly deserves (sarcasm).
LOL Oh, I see!!! Maybe I need to go to Dallas for some of those suppositories you were blogging about 😉
we can touch the paint, we can’t touch the stars… 😉
You might be on to something there.Thanks for your comment.
the intelligence just pours out of me i just can’t help it…lol
😉
Knowing what can be in hot dogs, I think I’d prefer if Mickey Ds just leaves that market alone. 😯
Technically, the “0” on the phone is really 10. That’s because the very early dialing system used a number of pulses for each number – 5 had five pulses, for instance. The equipment couldn’t understand no pulses, so 0 = ten. (And that’s what you get for letting the son of a 39-year Telephone company veteran on your blog! :p )
And if you work nights, your day job is eating and sleeping, and who the HECK would want to quit THOSE?!? 😀
So no McFrankfurter for you.
Interesting re the telephone. Of course if I had been designing it I would have put a 10 for 10 not a nought, but then again I would have stopped my computer with a stop button not a start button.
Eating and sleeping is a good day job, where do I get one of those?
Ah, but the telephone switch gear only recognised a single digit, being an early form of computer. “10” would have been two digits, interpreted as a “1” followed by a “0”. 😀
Yeah, I got this kind of information CONSTANTLY growing up. I even have a mini-switchboard of my own! Now if I could just go back in time, and shoot that moron Judge Green…..
Sounds like you need a De Lorean with the flux capacitor option.
Far too long between visits. Some very questions here. Although The Engineer has never called about the remote, he has called about some of the kitchen workings…
I mean, some very GOOD questions… lunch time I think. Brain and fingers have stopped communicating.
LOL Don’t worry, I can read between the words.
LOL very good. Glad you could visit again and thanks for your comment.
