Random Things to Think About: the Section!
I meant to put these up months ago... like while I was still in Peterborough (as that is where they were developed) but I just never got around to it for some reason or another. Anyways, I suppose I should explain what these thingys are... basically ,what they are is exactly what the title says... they are things which are totally random, that (in theory) you could put a lot of thought into. However, if you think about them seriously, you’ll realize that there is absolutely nothing to think about with them, but oh well.
Basically, the real point of these was to amuse myself/my friends at work at fabulous ICT in Peterborough - I hope that I did that. I know I was at least amused, and I’m pretty sure at LEAST Ryan and Dawn were. Anyways, without further Apu, I give you some random things to think about...
Do you think that ‘Vanilla Coke’ had a beginning similar to Reese Peanut Butter Cups? Like, “Hey! You got vanilla in my coke!” “Hey! You got coke in my vanilla?” Do ya think it happened like that? I do.
Do you think that if there are Martians, their ‘airforce’ (or whatever they might have) has to answer some calls like, “sure buddy. You saw a black and white ‘spaceship’ with NASA written on it... whatever.” ?
How can you really define what’s ‘big’?
Why do I have to clean stuff off the soap? I mean, shouldn’t soap be self-cleaning?
Okay, now if Jesus was Jewish, then why do Christians say they follow the path of him? I mean, to truly do that, wouldn’t there be no Christians? Is that a bizarre loop-hole or something?
Do you think that the guy that pre-records the messages on answering machines has an answering machine of his own? And, if so, does he use the pre-recorded one, or does he do it himself? Would it really matter?
Do you think in duck society, they have 2 separate words for describing themselves and the act of ducking?
So, people often say, about when they come into contact with bears that, "they fear us just as much as we fear them." Okay, for one, I've never seen a bear crap it's pants. For two, how do they know that? Does the bear keep an easily accessable journal?
Hve people really tried everything already to cure diseases? Like, maybe the cure for cancer is eating thumb-tacks covered in tobassco sauce. I think someone should check, cuz hey, are we really sure it won't work?
Do you think that the metric system holds less sway over people with only 9 fingers?
Do you think there actually is a 'duck society'? And if so, do you think they're elitest? Like, would they let in girl-ducks, or geese?
How do we know that it doesn't really, really hurt a carrot when you vut and eat it? I mean, does a cow really say, "Ouch, that hurt!" when you make it into a burger? No. No it doesn't.
How come Robin Hood's name got attached to flour? I mean, what the hell is the connection there?!
How come when people are told to open their eyes as wide as they can, wnless they mean not to, they also open their mouths?
Why does some neopolitan ice cream come all mixed, and some comes sectioned? This is something I really do wanna know, so really... think about it.
If we're all "god's children" doesn't that make Jesus a little less special?
If a tree falls in the woods on top of Pauly Shore, and no one's around, does anybody care?
How do we know that our galaxy is spiral? I mean, has anybody really seen it?
Did ya ever wonder how things got named what they did? Like, why is a woodchuck called 'woodchuck' when it cannot, despite the tounge-twister, "chuck wood." And really - what does "tree" even mean outside of itself?
Do you think Jello would still be popular if it was called "Puke-Goo"? I mean, is there always room for "Puke-Goo"?
Does the guy that invented the idea of 'royalties' recieve royalties everytime one is given? And, if so, would his life be non-stop receiving of royalties for previous royalties he has received?
Do you think that if you put a vaccuum cleaner in space it would create a blackhole?
Who is the bigger fool: the fool, or the fool who follows him? Now - what if the guy following was Albert Einstein? AND what if the initial fool was Thomas Edison? Who would be the fool? I think the answer may surprise you.
Do color blind people really understand the slogan "Taste the Rainbow" for Skittles?
There will be far more of these things, as I have many, many of them written down already. But, this was just a start. Also, feel free to add to it or something. Ciao amigos.
