Default Why?

Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries
are dead?

Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there
is not enough?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars,
but check when you say the paint is wet?

Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Whose idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"?

What is the speed of darkness?

Are there specially reserved parking spaces for "normal" people at the Special Olympics?

If you send someone 'Styrofoam', how do you pack it?

If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be?

If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

If it's true that we are here to help others, what are the others doing here?

Do married people live longer than single ones or does it only seem longer?

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours?

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

I feel like I have some time to waste (though this isn't really a waste of time), to shed my thoughts on some of these.

Quote:

there's always hope.

Quote:

becuase it's just another way to make more money off of you.

Quote:

In the bottle the glue stays wet, when you open it up and put it on something it drys.

Quote:

lawsuit probably, it's inhumane to not use sterilized needles.

Quote:

He's not as handsome witha beard.[/quote]

Quote:

Assumign you're talking about japanese kamikaze pilot during WWII, the helmet they wore was just a leather (or something like that) hat that helped to hold the goggles on.

Quote:

Cus evolution is false. :P

Quote:
Do you cry under water?
you wouldn't be able to tell

Quote:

The dictionary meaning for "assassinate" is:
1. To murder (a prominent person) by surprise attack, as for political reasons." So it has to be a political person

Quote:

Figure of speech.

Quote:
Why does a round pizza come in a square box?
Easier to stack.

Quote:
If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?
Figure fo speech.

Quote:

Cus you can see farther.

Quote:

Legal reasons probably. Watching a person undress is probably considerd some form of "pleasurement", or something...

hope i didn't spoil any of these...but i was bored...

Um, where is the evidence of creationism?


evolution isnt replacement, just new beings. I mean there are 4Ghz computer processors, but slower ones still exist.
