The stupid questions thread-- get it out of your system!

Question 1: Just a guess, but it's probably due to a lack of oxygenation in that blood. The reason your veins look blue is that the oxygen has been transmitted to cells already, and it is returning to the heart and lungs to be refreshed.

How come only really dark when it's your period is light? On heavier days it's like... bright red.
 
Doesn't mean they can't know about them or know about the processes blood must go through in that, or other situations that might have the same affect.

I've wondered that for a long time. ;_;

He was waying that the proper phrase is "tongue in cheek" and not "tongue and cheek" as it was typed. And he is correct.

"Saturated fat causes heart disease as much as Brawndo is what plants crave."
"How is the ever-increasing national debt going to be reconciled while everyone is getting tax breaks?"

My understanding is that the government just prints more money. So effectively everyone is taxed by inflation. But my understanding is probably very wrong. :p I don't like the debt tactics myself.

Our system needs reform badly. Social Security needs to be taken away completely or restricted to no more than 10 year retirements. Too many people are working like 25-35 years and expecting to have a free ride retirement for 30 years. SS wasn't designed for this.

And to be honest, I think people at a point have a duty to die. When you're 95 years old and only can survive and tubes and respirators, and you're ruining your children's career's and consequently your grandchildren's lives as well, it's time to go. Why would anyone want to extend their life for 2 miserable months at that cost?



My question:

Why are women obsessed with jewlry when guys don't give a damn about it. So if it isn't sex appeal, what is it?

Why do hot dogs come in packages of 8 but hot dog buns come in packages of 10?

Hot dogs weigh relativily one ounce, 8 ounces equals about a pound of meat. Bun cooking trays are made to fit the baking racks and they mostly fit 10. Bakers also dislike multiples of 5.

Ahh, apologies. I saw the bolded text and thought he did that, when it was in fact the original poster. I will leave my foo pa in place for all to see.

A week or so ago, I walked into my sister's room, and she had this heart-shaped ice cube tray, which, of course, makes heart-shaped ice cubes.


I said to her, "you know, if women didn't exist, things like that wouldn't exist, because no man would ever have a flash of intuition and say 'Eureka! What we really need are custom-shaped ice cubes!'."

She goes, "that's not true-- Javier (her BF) liked it" (ignoring the fact that he probably liked it in that "oh, that's amusing...and utterly useless" kinda way :p ), and I said "no, I didn't say that guys couldn't/wouldn't like it-- I said that it would never have been 'invented'." Eventually she conceded the point. I feel the same way about all these home shopping networks like HSN or QVC (I only know the acronyms because my mother and grandmother watch them religiously)-- they wouldn't exist if not for the existence of females. I think that this springs from men's typically "functional" mindset, as opposed to women's general "decorative/aesthetic" mentality.


So my question is this: Am I correct in assuming that these things would not exist without women? :D


Or am I a closet sexist... o_O ;)

Same here. You see two bolded bits, you naturally put them together. Just a mistake.

I think you guys are talking about two seperate "and"s.

Live and breath, Tounge in cheek.

If it wasn't in, then "Tounge planted firmly and cheek" would be stupid.

EDIT: NM this was solved hours ago.
