    Do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are going dead?

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

    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"?

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

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

    Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

    Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

    Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

    Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

    How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

    When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, "It's all right?" Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, "That hurt, you stupid idiot?"

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

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

    How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

    And my FAVORITE......

    The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you!!

    Because the receiver is still alive when injected, making it cruel and unusual punishment, which is banned in all 50 states.

    Because in the process you get tunnel vision, solely concentrating on retrieving the falling object, not considering anything else in its path.

    The Tarzan one is really cool. I never actually thought about that. If he spent all his life in jungle then how he is clean shaved? :D

    If you've got an enclosed bottle of glue, no air can get to it. But when you open it up and glue two things together, air dries the glue and holds the two things together.

    I don't know why, I've thought about it before though. My theory is that of the x species of apes, only a few of those species evolved. Those few species were probably in situations where they didn't need so much hair but they needed to be smarter. That's why they evolved. The other species were fine how things were and so they didn't need to evolve.

    But when the bottle of glue is half empty (or is it half full?) the other half is full of air... Why doesn't it dry out at that point?

    The cap of the glue bottles are air tight. It keeps the air out.

    Even in things that appear pointless at first glance, there is a dose of logic

    Hehehe it's like what came first the egg or the chicken...these weren't all my questions, I saw a similar topic posted somewhere and thought it was a good one, added my own and thought why not ask it on DP where everyone is a genius ;)

    LMAO that works too...also try throwing it at the wall.

    Okay but when you open it and then close it, it is air tight keeping air from getting in, but the air that got in when it was opened...where does that go? When you are trying to package something in a ziploc back you squeeze all the air out and then zip...which leads me to think that the same should be necessary for a bottle of glue. I have never squeezed the air out of a glue bottle before closing it...so with the air locked in...why doesn't the glue dry out?

    Like I said, it keeps the air out. That's the purpose of the twist cap.

    Maybe it's just because the remote is getting older and the button is getting flattened so it requires more pressure to trigger the command.

    That's "The Man" trying to keep you down.

    As you get hungrier, food looks better.

    Uh oh.
