    why women wear mis-matched underwear.

    I damn near love you like a brother but that pisses me off. :lol:

    Anyway, claire had a good answer to it. Other reasons:
    - When buying the bra, matching panties weren't available in the right size.
    - Mis-matched underwear looks nice.

    I could think of more, but am at work and some of my brain capacity is occupied.

    Also, I think you have no right to complain until men also start wearing two pieces of underwear. And wearing two pairs of briefs doesn't count. :P

    Why, when another person yawns, I must yawn myself.

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28240615/

    I remembered hearing this story from a couple of years ago. You don't have to believe anything on MSNBC, but I remember reading excerpts of the study and the MSNBC article does a fair job of summarizing without embellishing

    Bottom line: It's believed to be an evolutionary development of animals who live in social groups. Contagious yawns are hypothesized to be a way to keep multiple animals in a social group alert enough to watch out for predators. They work by providing an air exchange and cooling their brains down, thus keeping them more alert.

    Well now I understand and I am going to share that explanation when I find myself in that situation again!
    Thank you! ;)

    femaless underwear is outstanding/astounding matched or mismatched.
    i do not care if a chic's underwear match her bra or shirt or jean/skirt/dress...

    in the end
    i vote for zero underwear :mrgreen:

    I'll never understand why when pet cats sleep on the bed why they always have to sleep right where you want your feet to be. Love all the pet cats I've had in my life to bits but why, why, why do they always have to sleep on your feet!?!???! :? ;)

    Why "waffles" keep coming up in the threads: The whole Pearl Jam/Waffle connection.

    And, also, why I now am craving waffles the way they were intended to be enjoyed, with butter and maple syrup.

    this is something i've thought about for a while.. this whole animal v human equivalent thing.

    like they say that when a flea jumps up its the equivalent of us jumping over the Empire State building... its not... and when a spider falls off a coffee table its the equivalent of us falling into the Grand Canyon... its just not.

    I saw a spider run across my bathroom floor the other day... it didnt die of exhuastion.. and yet surely thats the equivalent of us sprinting a full marathon?

    a spider falling off a coffee table is hitting a nice soft carpet from 2ft up... so its nowhere near the same as us hitting the bottom of the grand canyon at full speed


    and i cannot comprehend that whole room of monkeys typing the full works of Shakespeare shit.. i just cant.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Why people are in such an all fired fucking hurry to pull out in front of you and then they poke along on the road like they have all the time in the world to get somewhere. If they have all that time they couldn't have just waited a few more seconds until you passed?

  • Why they call it a touchdown when neither the player or the ball crosses the goal line?

    iv used to wonder about this. but then i figured that they may not touch the ball down but their feet or body do touch down in goal so...

  • iv used to wonder about this. but then i figured that they may not touch the ball down but their feet or body do touch down in goal so...

    not the touchdown I saw today. It was even challenged and the ruling on the field stood. Even the commentator didn't think the guy was in. Can't remember which game it was though.

    aah yes that happens.. in rugby league they go to the video ref.. which in my opinion is sorta bullshit. gone are the days when absolute unambiguous contact had to be made for it to count. seems these days all you gotta do is breathe on the ball and its counted.

    commentators make my head ache.

    How we can buy six gigantic bags of candy, give out exactly one per trick or treater, and still we ran out of candy at 7:15, a full 45 minutes before trick-or-treating ends.

    Why we can't give out emergency backup treats for Halloween since running out of candy after using up six giant bags.

    Mr. Unlost just vetoed my ideas:
    1. Cans of Bud Light (left over from the boat this summer)
    2. Individual marshmallows
    3. Slim Fast snack bars
    4. Packets of Splenda

    Hey, I'm just trying to be helpful. Instead he opted to shut out all of the lights at the front of the house, and now we're cowering in the living room and kitchen with all the blinds drawn.

    The correct treat for those little angels with paper trick-or-treat bags is ice cubes.
