Why on earth would the LCBO need to spend money on advertisement spots on the radio? Where else am I gonna buy my booze?

 

Why is it that you only fall/slip when people are watching?

I was just wondering this myself. They really don't have much in the way of competition.

Hmmmm why does the grocery store charge me a nickle for a plastic bag and say it's for the environment while still wrapping coconuts in plastic so that the bar code sticker will stay glued on.

I watched how those are made... It's actually kinda cool. Coming from my imagination, I thought they were some genetic mutation or something at first, but it turns out that they are just apples soaked in grape juice. They use the most porous apple variety, which in turn will absorb the most flavouring.

 

*Sadface to no mutated apples... :( *

Hmmmmm - I once bought a sun screen for my windshield. You know, the cardboard ones you put on the inside to block the sun when the vehicle is parked so the interior does not get blazing hot. The screen came with instructions which in itself is a "Hmmmm", and it also came with a warning "DO NOT DRIVE VEHICLE WHEN THE SCREEN IS IN PLACE" Hmmmm I am sure I would have thought of that!

If Jimmy cracked corn and I don't care, why is there a song about it.

 

How can there be a civil war, its a contradiction in terms

 

Why does your doctor leave the exam room when you get undressed?

 

Why is there a light in the fridge but not the freezer

That one comes from a lawsuit in the US where a woman spilled a cup of McDonald's coffee on herself and successfully sued for millions on the basis that there should have been a warning the contents were hot. That on it's own makes you go mmmmmm!

Hmmmm, makes me think of the time that my wife came home and told me she was stopped by the Mounties. They had her for speeding, passing on a double line and a brake light was out. He gave her a warning! My God, if that was me I'd have been in jail. All I could say to her was, " So, just how short WAS your skirt? "

 

So Lee, just how short was your skirt?!

Street signs in St. john's frequently make me go "hmmmmm". There's a parking lot downtown with a very large sign that says,

 

"No parking except by permit. Lot under surveilance from time to time".
