So there are a whole bunch of things that in my 22 1/2 years on this planet, I have just never understood. Things like, how come the last set of keys put into my purse is never the one that's on top? Or why wear skinny jeans if you're just going to sag them? Or how about when you see one singular shoe on the side of the road? What the heck is that all about?

I've got tons more that I can never remember at the same time, but I know I can't possibly be the only one. What are some thing you'll never get?

why does cheesecake taste so good when it only makes my ass bigger, why do people talc the insides of latex garments when corn starch works sooooo much better and is better for your skin, and why did the owl eat the fucking tootsie-pop, it was the little kids?!?

Why do people who clearly don't like children have children?! Why do people yell when talking to someone who is English-as-a-second-la nguage? ...talking louder doesn't translate your words! Why isn't health insurance available to all Americans? We have so much wealth as a nation, but do so little to care for our people...the work of the people is what makes the country valuable. Seems like you'd want a healthy country, right? To keep prospering and such. Why don't people learn from their mistakes? Why don't companies make hair dye that is PPD-free? Why isn't there a Sonic in my neighborhood? Does Sonic hate the people of West Philly and think that we do not deserve slushies whenever we please, huh?

He was such a bastard that owl...I'd have been pretty damn pissed off and I'd not be asking him any other questions ever again.

Why do my neighbors only have 1 dandelion on the lawn, but mine is a yellow sea? Why did Schwarzenegger's accent get worse the bigger a star he became? Why do people watch car racing on TV (although my husband assures me that with 3D TV, it will be more fun) and listen to golf on the radio? And why do the booth announcers whisper when they provide golf commentary?

What's with hanging a pair of shoes up on a phone line by the laces?

What's the appeal of Adam Sandler?

Why does my laptop get more dust inside it when it's closed?

Why does my dog put his rubber balls in his food dish?

Why do boxes of macaroni cheese have push tabs to open them but they never work?

Why isn't there a live action 'The Last Unicorn' movie?

Why do people have to bully others????

I agree with the shoes on the side of the road. How do you NOT notice you lost a shoe?

Why do we drive on a parkway and park in a driveway?

Why do people call freeways "highways"? If I-75 is a freeway what the heck do you call that 2 lane road that stretches on forever?

What is the point of keeping all those plastic bags from the store? But the very next day after getting rid of a bunch, you need 2?

What happens if you hit the rewind and fast forward buttons at the same time?

Does Chewbacca use head and shoulders just on his head or his whole body?

Has Rick Springfield ever been Rick-rolled?

I've always wanted to know why the kids wouldn't let Mr. Rabbit have any Tricks cereal. He seemed like he really wanted it and if I encountered a talking rabbit that wanted my cereal that bad I would definitely share...

On the subject of the whole Shoes hanging from wires thing my boyfriend told me that it sometimes signifies that some kind of "drug house" is nearby. I don't really know how true that is, but hey I thought I would share

Sonic also hates northern NJ...they opened one 40 minutes away a year ago and there's STILL a line out to the road all the time.

Why is all the good fast food in the south? Why are the only places I want to live the places I'll never be able to afford to live? Why does my cable only go out when there's a season premiere or finale on? It's like the cable company doesn't like my taste. Why do the clothes fit at the store, and then shrink when I take the tags off?

The closest Sonic used to be about 2 hrs away from me, but we still got the commercials. It was cruel and unusual punishment. However, this summer they are opening one about 20 mins away from me and I'm so stoked!

I've never been in a Sonic. I know where ONE is at...about an hour away.

Why does Goofy get to live in a house and act like a person, while Pluto lives in a dog house and gets treated like a dog? That's something I've always wondered. Also, why do cartoon characters generally wear shirts, ex. Winnie the Pooh/ Mickey Mouse, but no pants. Doesn't this defeat the purpose of clothing?

Mickey wears just shorts. Donald wears just a shirt. It always blew my mind too. Cartoons make no sense.

Oh, and why were the Angry Beavers considered angry when they always seemed so calm and good natured?

Touche. I had a total brain fart and thought for some reason that Mickey only wore a shirt, but still why aren't cartoons completely clothed?

Omg, I know.. and Bojangles! Yum! I love southern roadtrips partially because of the awesome places along the way.

Y'all must have some shitty places to eat up there if you think Sonic and Bojangles are any good. Those places are so damn greasy and sloppy! Yuck!

I kind of agree, I guess you crave what you don't live by. I have Bojangles and Sonic right down the road for me and don't really like them. But when they weren't so close I craved them.

Sonic's fast food is gross. Their ice cream on the other hand? I'll go there for a shake over McDonald's any day. It's omg amazing. That's just my opinion though

Why some people talk so damn loud
Why do people that can't take care of kids have them.
Why do we have to have our mouth open when putting on mascara.
Why do people drive so dame slow when your running late.
Why do we have PMS.
Why doesn't everyone in America have basic health care?
Why do people treat the mentally ill like shit.

In all my motel housekeeping years, I STILL don't understand how people who do a one-nighter can leave their underwear behind. I'm talking g-strings, panties, and even boxers. Seriously? How can you leave and miss your underwear? And it happens at least 2 times a week where I find someone's undies. *facepalm*
