Why do we say these things?

there are some weird things in life.

For example, why do we say stuff like "Needless to say, I blablabla"? If its needless to say then why do we say it?



Also, why do we say "How are you?" when we're not gonna listen and just wanna talk about ourselves?


any one else got any?

If a bear takes a big sloppy healthy nutty $#!t in the woods, and no one's there to smell it does it make a noise?

WORDS WOMEN USE

FINE ~ This is the word we use at the end of any argument that we feel we are right about but need to shut you up. NEVER use fine to describe how a woman looks. This will cause you to have one of those arguments.

FIVE MINUTES ~ This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the trash, so I feel that it's an even trade.

NOTHING ~ If you ask her what is wrong and she says NOTHING, this means something and you should be on your toes. NOTHING is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. NOTHING usually signifies an argument that will last FIVE MINUTES and end with the word FINE.

GO AHEAD (with raised eyebrows) ~This is a dare. One that will result in a woman getting upset over NOTHING and will end with the word FINE.

GO AHEAD (normal eyebrows) ~ This means "I give up" or "do what you want because I don't care." You will get a raised eyebrow GO AHEAD in just a few minutes, followed by NOTHING and FINE and she will talk to you in about FIVE MINUTES when she cools off.

LOUD SIGH ~ This is not actually a word, but is still often a verbal statement very misunderstood by men. A LOUD SIGH means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over NOTHING.

SOFT SIGH ~ Again, not a word, but a verbal statement. SOFT SIGHS are one of the few things that some men actually understand. She is content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe and she will stay content.

THAT'S OKAY ~ This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can say to a man. THAT'S OKAY means that she wants to think long and hard before paying you retributions for whatever it is that you have done. THAT'S OKAY is often used with the word FINE and used in conjunction with a raised eyebrow GO AHEAD. At some point in the near future when she has plotted and planned, you are going to be in some mighty big trouble.

PLEASE DO ~ This is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is giving you the chance to come up with whatever excuse or reason you have for doing whatever it is that you have done. You have a fair chance to tell the truth, so be careful and you shouldn't get a THAT'S OKAY.

THANKS ~ A woman is thanking you. Do not faint; just say "you're welcome."

THANKS A LOT ~ This is much different from THANKS. A woman will say THANKS A LOT when she is really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have hurt her in some callous way, and will be followed by the LOUD SIGH. Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the LOUD SIGH as she will only tell you NOTHING.

Would a fly without wings be called a walk?

How do Keep off the grass signs get there?

If man evolved from monkeys and apes, why do we still have monkeys and apes?

Why does your nose run, but your feet smell?

Who first looked at a cow and thought, Hey I think I’ll squeeze those things and drink what comes out.

Why does the sum lighten our hair but darken our skin?

Why are some places we sit in called stands?

Why is there no egg in eggplant, no ham in hamburger, no pine or apple in pine apple, and no dog in hotdog?

If women wear a pair of pants and a pair of earrings, why don’t they wear a pair of bras?

If love is blind, how can we believe in love at first sight?

Why don’t you ever see headlines that say, “Psychic wins

Why is it called “after dark” when it is really “after light”?

I am afraid to say this and people will thing i am boring and all, but HISTORY LESON! before the were called Hot Doychesters, like the dog because of the shap of the sausage and the dog alike. they drop that word and replaced it with "dog" becasause of it's origins.

The International Danger: When woman say: "Am I fat?"

Why is this soo dangerous? Becasue say "No" and she will accuse you of lieying. This can result in an Arrgument That LAsts "FIVE MINUTES" and ends with a "LOUD SIGH" and a "FINE"

And even more dangerous is when you Answer the alternative. Thsi results in a "THANKS A LOT" followed by an Argument that can last "HALF AN HOUR" ending in a .... well you will NEVER see the end of it.

it's in case some idiot pours gasloine all over themselves and then is allowed by the local cops to climb up on a fuel tanker parked next to the store

people have to be locked out cuz they are not smart enough to realize cops and firetrucks blocking the driveway means they shouldn't come in the freakin store

yep we kept telling people over the intercom to leave but they wouldn't. and if they couldn't here my loud mouth they seriously needed to have their hearing checked

this dude walked around for two hours soaked in gasoline before he climbed on the fuel truck

my sis (who is my only sibling) and i were both working. we were trying to get them to let one of us go home since we were our parents' only children, but they said no

if he had set himself on fire there would have been a big hole there since the people on gas desk didn't hit the fuel shut off button. our store and the truck stop across the street would have blow up and where they made us wait would have been in the blast zone
