Why?

Even though these are old, I decided to post them cuz I think they’re funny. The sad thing is that some of them apply to me. But, I refuse to admit which ones! :/* Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

* Why do banks charge a fee on “insufficient funds” when they know there isn’t enough?

* Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

* Why doesn’t glue stick to the bottle?

* Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

* Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

* Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

* Whose idea was it to put an “S” in the word “lisp”?

* Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

* Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

* Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that’s falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

* The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends — if they’re okay, then it’s you.

    Honey great list. Sometime we have to leave things we don’t understand, as it is. And we shouldn’t mess with it. It’s a waste of time.
    I loved “Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?”.

    MSB, hmm let me take a shot at which ones apply to you lool:
    - You press harder on the remote control when u know the batteries are getting weaker.

    - You knock other things off the table as u trying to catch something falling off the table

    -You must have done the vacuum thing at least once!

    I might be missing a few more, but how about these 3 ? :):):)
