Yes I'm once again bored, so just posting this. Some are pretty funny and some just are duds.

QUESTIONS TO PONDER....

Does a clean house indicate that there is a broken computer in it?

Why is it that no matter what color of bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day when mattresses are NOT on sale?

Why is it that no plastic garbage bag will open from the end you first try?

Why do we wash BATH towels? Aren't we clean when we use them? If not then what was the purpose of the bath?

Considering all the lint you get in your dryer, if you kept drying your clothes would they eventually just disappear?

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

Is it true that the only difference between a yard sale and a trash pickup is how close to the road the stuff is placed?

In winter, why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

Why is it that inside every older person is a younger person wondering what the heck happened?

If diamonds are a girl's best friend and a dog is man's best friend, who really is the dumber sex?

How come we never hear any father-in-law jokes?

Why do men forget everything and women remember everything?

Do Chinese people get hungry an hour after they eat American food?

Is the real reason women live longer than men because they don't have to live with women?


My favorite one was:

Is it true that the only difference between a yard sale and a trash pickup is how close to the road the stuff is placed?

Only because we get a LOT of yard sales in the spring/summer around here LOL, and some of the "merchandise" is pretty much the same crap everyone else is wanting to get rid of LOL. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

I have always wondered this what is the point of waiting for the heat to be over, if we just turn around and heat the house up when it is cold?

[/QUOTE]Well then you always wondered about something that isn't true. So really, which IS the dumber sex? [img]tongue.gif[/img] I mean, in the summer it gets too hot when it's at least 28C or so, anything below that is comfortable. In the winter you generally (here anyway) heat up to about 20C. So that is nowhere near heating up to the same temp [img]tongue.gif[/img] . Just thought I'd add that.

LOL we have a similar phenomenon here, except it's rugs. Every few weeks there's a new ad on TV for Rugs-a-Million exclaiming about the new sale they have. The RaM guy comes on and announces in his most serious voice "I've OVERSTOCKED. I can't keep these rugs here another week", or "Despite my best efforts, the [insert name of store] is closing down - FOREVER. All rugs must go", or "Customs are on my tail. I have to get rid of these rugs or face a MASSIVE FINE", or "I've made a TERRIBLE MISTAKE with the ordering - too many rugs. I've got to get rid of them". Then he discusses the discounts "All rugs up to 87% off, and another 5% off FOR CASH. You'll never get rugs at these prices AGAIN". Well, not until the next sale in a week or so. Anyone who buys a rug with less than 85% off is doing something wrong in Australia

What I want to know is - when you delete a number from your mobile phone, where does it go?
