my_pet_worm Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Did you ever stop and wonder? Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these pink dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?" Who was the first person to say, "See that chicken there... I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta it's bum." Why do toasters always have a setting so high that could burn the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat? Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer? Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the T2 fast lane? If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat? Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their bum when they ask where the bathroom is? Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs! What do you call male ballerinas? Can blind people see their dreams? Do they dream?? If Wile E. Coyote from the Road Runner had enough money to buy all that ACME stuff, why didn't he just buy dinner? If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests? If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Is Disney World the only people trap operated by a mouse? Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune? Stop singing and read on . . . . . . . . . . Do illiterate(can't read) people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window? Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster? Why you actually read any posts i send? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubsa Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Did you ever stop and wonder? Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these pink dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?" Obviously, upon observing calves obtaining milk from the cow, one person was curious whether the liquid was edible, based on the evidence than none of the calves died directly from the milk and seemed to enjoy the taste. He simply mimiced the milking action of the calves mouth with his hands. Common sense really... Who was the first person to say, "See that chicken there... I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta it's bum." Rather like the previous answer, a person would have observed how birds and other things fed on these eggs for nutrition, like a fox. Either through desperate hunger or curiousity, the person took a chicken's egg and tried it through different ways of cooking. I feel sorry for the person who ate it raw. Why do toasters always have a setting so high that could burn the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat? Every toaster I can think of will let you pop up the toast before it automatically does so. This setting allows for a quicker burning method to bring to a manual end, thus being time efficient. I, personally, frequently do this myself when in a hurry. Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer? Because food put in the freezer is usually sealed tightly to prevent defrosting. There is therefore less of a risk of breaking/spoiling the food should it be dropped or knocked out of the freezer (most also have sections to prevent it) A fridge, however, can have opened food supplies such as drink cartons, meat or cheese etc which can be left. If one were dropped at night it would most likely be spoilt, resulting in a light being put in to prevent it so. Fridge's are also the main source of midnight snacks, compared to freezer food, which is tedious to snakc on due to the thawing/cooking process. Therefore, a light wouldn't be required as much as a fridge so there isn't one to preserve it's lifehood and energy. Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the T2 fast lane? Sorry, I don't speak American. If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat? If one were to take the physics of a fictional novel seriously, they could argue that the water's velocity in the waves would simply demolish any make-due fix the ship had on its hole, due to limited supplies. A housing for a radio could be made from many things and would not have to withstand the stress and turbulance the ship would. You could also point out this: It's only a book. Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their bum when they ask where the bathroom is? When asking for the time, it is common to use a wristwatch to supply the information. The limited possibilities through function and technology made the wrist easy to establish as universal sign language for time. In comparison, the bum is not the only method of excretement in the human body. Whereas wris[bleep]ches are only (commonly) worn on the wrist, there are at least 3 common ways to use a toilet, so deciding which sign to use for a toilet signal would prove complicated. Also, a bathroom has multiple uses OTHER than the toilet, for example the shower or to apply make up. Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs! Goofy is far more advanced in evolution than Pluto in the fact that he can walk on two legs. He can also talk and wear clothes. This refers to Darwin's evolution of apes and humans. Apes began walking on two legs, then began to talk, then began to wear clothes as well. Goofy (or rather his creator) has evolved in the same way as the neanderthols of yesteryear have, while Pluto has not. Then again, do remember, it's a cartoon. Both dog's have human smiles. Are you going to question the logic behind that too? What do you call male ballerinas? As far as I'm aware, ballerinas. The same way that both male and female performers are called actors (not actresses) Can blind people see their dreams? Do they dream?? Depending on their state of blindness and when it was incurred, they may or may not. If the human mind has any recollection of visual images or blurred shapes prior or during endured blindness, then the brain can create representations of these images in dreams. If a person has suffered from pitch black blindness all their life or has had trace decay in their long term memory of images, a person will simply hear things in their dream. Regardless, they all "dream" if "dreaming" is to be accepted as a biological term. If Wile E. Coyote from the Road Runner had enough money to buy all that ACME stuff, why didn't he just buy dinner? There are many possiblities. The Coyote may only have had reference to ACME products, I cannot recollect when he has ever had a pizza delivery service or take-away menu available to him. He may also have had no money and could be requesting samples or prototypes from ACME inc. to test on catching the food (which would explain why they always went wrong) The Coyote was also located in a remote desert. Had he been able to order food, due to his remoteness, it would have undoubtedly spoilt cooked food due to the time it took to get there and in the intense heat of the desert. Uncooked/prepared food would have been no use to him due to his abscence of cutlery, firewood and matches. Oh, one more thing: It's a cartoon. He also had no water or knife for cacti, yet he still lived. If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests? Not all quizzes can be defined as quizzical but all are interrogative. As are tests. Test is simply a synonym of quiz. If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? Johnson's Baby oil contains: Mineral Oil, Fragrance and sometimes Hydrogenated Ethylene/Propylene/Styrene. No traces of baby have been found to date. Why don't you ask where crude oil comes from, or perhaps car? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Obviously not. For this word play to succeed morality would have to be replaced by moronity, in order to create a successful comparison. Should those changes me made I'd be inclined to agree with the statement Is Disney World the only people trap operated by a mouse? The objective of Disney World is to provide entertainment as an amusement park. If people want to take humour from this metaphorical reversal, then no doubt Disney World has succeeded. However, the mouse is really a man in a suit. A bit like Saint Nicholas. Sorry kids.. Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune? The tune of the song has commonly been dubbed a nursery tune due to its simplicity and appeal. Twinkle twinkle predates the alphabet song by a number of years and was commonly sung as a lullaby to infants. When the alphabet song was transcribed, the same tune was chosen due to its pentameter matching the tempo when the alphabet would be commonly spoken. It also was chosen due to its referance of infanthood, and that young persons would be able to associate the two. Do illiterate(can't read) people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup? The 'full effect' would have to be defined. I interperate it as being able to taste the great flavour while also being able to spell out words that appear. If that was accepted then the obvious answer would be no. If a book's "full effect" was entertainment and learning through words, then do you really think people who can't read would get those sensations? Or was that a rhetorical question like the previous? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window? The behaviour of a dog when blowing in its face varies from dog to dog. It has not been scientifically tested so therefore the idea of ideographism defeats nomothetism and the free-will theory defeats determinism. In other words, they reaction of dogs would vary from each individual. Similarly, some dogs will not stick their head out of the car window. For dogs that do both there is a strong possibility that the "aggressive" behaviour is being misjudged and/or the dog realises the cruelness you are showing it by deliberately antagonising it and prefers th cool sensation of fresh wind on its face Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster? Quite simply, no. The button acts as a switch to operate the lever to move the elevator. Therefore, the lever is responsible for the pace of the elevator, not the button. Elevators also have a set pace limit (usually) which is reached fairly quickly. Signals to begin when already in motion would simply be ignored. Why you actually read any posts i send? Because I've seen these kinds of things in chain letters, magazines and other websites countless of times before. The fact is, in my opinion, they are tedious and do not make me wonder. I decided to show justifiably that these "long unanswered questions" are relatively simple when given the slightest objection rather than complying to accept.

Mercifull Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster? Quite simply, no. The button acts as a switch to operate the lever to move the elevator. Therefore, the lever is responsible for the pace of the elevator, not the button. Elevators also have a set pace limit (usually) which is reached fairly quickly. Signals to begin when already in motion would simply be ignored. In more modern elevators in hotels if you push the button for the floor twice quickly it will not stop at any other floors along the way even if someone else pushes a button. This is why you never open a lift to a cleaner ;) Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.
