Ask all the questions you never plan to have answered!

Why to kamakasi pilots wear helmets?

Why do we park in driveways and drive on parkways?

Why to ships carry cargo but cars carry shipment?

Why do you put a suit in a garment bag and garments in a suitcase?

What is another word for "thesaurus"?

Why is abbreviation such a long word?

Why do 24 hour convinent stores have locks on all the doors?

And who did think that eggs were edible? It came out of a chicken for christ sake! Probably was some really curious guy. But how would he know to cook it?! :wacko:

They're rhetorical questions, you aren't meant to answer them.

Why does "lisp" have an "s" in it?

That one actually has a logical explanation. Ever hear of Darwin's expiriment on the island with all the finches? He showed that mutations in one species of finch led to the creation of another species that migrated and resettled in a different location. More mutaions occured untill there were multiple species of finches all over the island. Some had short strong beaks for cracking the nuts of plants in their area, while others that lived around bugs had long thin beaks to grab them out of the trees. Size, color, and body frame also varied. The same mutation and natural selection happened to apes. (Monkeys never turned into people, only apes. Two completely different genuses.)

Actually, the reason they're called lifesavers is because it they get stuck in your throat, you can still breathe because of the hole in them. So... you really can't choke on them. 8D Useless knowledge!

How come Pluto doesn't have to wear clothes but Goofy does?

rosecrow13 · Posted: Sat Apr 15, 2006 12:57 pm Post subject:

I think it is because pluto is perseved as a pet whereas Goofy is one of the gang, aka a person like talking thingy.

Well yes but why is he a part of the gang and all that but not Pluto? Did Pluto suffer birth defects to make him a normal dog or something? Does Goofy ever get offended by the way Mickey treats him?
