Brilliant question.
Because she's hot. *cough* and I found a porn star that looks a ton like her *cough*

I honestly think it has to do to how much you were exposed to growing up and how often you do it. Its like you can't feed a dog new dog food after years of the old stuff without slowly mixing it in. But if your dog has different food every other day he can stomach wide changes.

Actually, I think it's because Americans eating Americanized Chinese food eat a much higher percentage of protein to rice.

And the point of seedless grapefruit - so there's no seeds when I eat one!

Yum.

Kinda funny: whenever someone says "There's no such thing as a stupid question." and the someone asks a question, and the person says that it was a stupid question. I've seen it a lot. Why do people bother to say "There's no such thing as a stupid question." if they're going to contradict themselves 5 seconds later?

For that matter, why do people feel the need to inform you when you've had a haircut? My usual response is "I know; I was there."

So true. I think I'm gonna say that from now on.

Why are they called buildings? Shouldn't they be called 'builts?'

Good point. And the state highway system in New Jersey should be called "never will be finisheds."

Once in a while, if I'm feeling particularly sarcastic, I'll put on a surprised face and say, "You're kidding?!" then feel my head and say, "I can't believe it! When did that happen?"

Great stuff.

Here's a question:
What were they thinking when the English language was designed, if you can call it that?

Honestly, they were thinking of German, a little tase of Scandinavian, and a fair bit of various Romance languages - just de-inflected and shoehorned into Germanic grammar.

It was probably like 20 drunk guys in some room who thought
whats the best way to confuse people?
"by giving them a language that makes no sense"
At least thats how i always figured it was thought up.

Why is it called taking a dump, when you're really leaving one?

when the landing party is beamed up using transport enhancers, where do the transport enhncers go?
do they get beamed up?
do they explode?
do they get drunk and party all night?

They go to the same place as loose change, car keys, and assorted pens - no human actually knows where that is.

C: they get drunk and party, and the invite Rochey as the honored Technological guest.

Or probably Mikey is right
