things that make you go hmmmm


i always have to scratch my head at this one:


why do dogs hate it when you blow in their faces, and yet they love having their heads out the car window when you are doing 110km's

I've often wondered that myself.


While we're on the subject, how do blind people know how much money they have?

why do we say no offense about something we typed to a sight impaired person? obviously they cant see it? same with saying sorry when bumping into inanimate objects..

Very simple.  Federal accessibility laws (like Section 508) dictate that all public areas have accessibility for all persons with disabilities, thus, drive-through ATMs with Braille.


 


Here's one I'd love for you guys to answer:


Why do people who say "There is no Absolute Truth" not realize their own immediate self-contradiction?


 


Yes, mina folket, I'm BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

Old women and checkbooks. (And, what's the point of digging two cents out of their purses, to write a check that is an even amount of money, when the interest they accrue at the end of the month, is going to offset the even amount of money??) What's the point????????

LOL. Ya...I always manage to get behind them.

I read somewhere it was because the air is more focused when you blow, and it hurts their ears. When their heads are out the car window it's diffused enough that it doesn't bother them; it's not as direct, somehow.

Well I was on GCN--and I've noticed something.
Quite a few of the moderators--people of 'importance' who are the 'leads,' or the 'supervisors'--anyway, the majority of them have the least number of posts; however, have been a committed person, or someone to "fear" if you goof.
Honestly, I've only seen one moderator actually do anything...besides Justin. And, that's Matt. Matt is cool. :)
I'm not saying all the other mods aren't cool...or anything like that. I guess what I'm wondering...is where are they?? I know they're busy. Yeah...everybody is. Seriously.

I work two jobs, now...and yet, still, have time to post at least something daily...even if it's nonsensical in the psychology game, thread.

I suppose I guess I'd like to see more of the moderators posting. However, if I were to say that on GCN, they'd get offended, and people would yell at me saying how busy they were...and they do so much work.
I guess working 70-80 hrs a week, and trying to do some online college courses isn't busy, either??? Not to them...they're a mod. They have a dot by their name, and get to retain a position, and they get to edit posts, which really do not need editing.

I think those who carry the message boards should get a little bit more recognition. Yes...there are the very familiar faces on there. *shrugs* I just got thinking...I see some people with 3000 posts, and some people with 200...yet they hold the exact same position.

I don't know. I'm not making sense...lol. G'nite!

Darrel

Maybe if I could make a valid argument, that I'm a new subsection of gay christianity...that I'm a gay Christain Buddhist, or that I'm a gay Christian that is a wanna be vegan...maybe I could have my own group of followers...lol. One day...

If you shop at Aldi, their hot dogs and smoked sausages come in the same amount as their hotdog buns (8 hotdogs, 16 hotdogs, 16 sausages to 8 buns). But their bratwurst comes in 5-packs.

I don't care anything about ounces.  It still doesn't make any sense!

When did ANYTHING about advertising make ANY sense?


It's just how they make them.


Which brings us to the real question:


Just how DO they make hot dogs and sausages? And do we REALLY want to know?
