Things That Make No Sense

Throughout life, one comes across many things that make no sense. Here are a few examples.

  1. You try on a pair of jeans at the store, and they fit. However, another pair of jeans that claim to be the same size will either be tight or trying to fall down.
  2. The length of the trouser legs is marked as 'petite', and is a bit long. The one marked 'regular' is fifty feet long, and you're afraid to see the 'tall' leg length.
    For Better or For Worse comic- regular clothes too big. 'What do petite people do?' 'Don't ask.' Baggy clothing
  3. Why the bottle or package says 'easy open tab'. You had to get a chain saw just to open it.
  4. Where things disappear to, and how. Five hundred screwdrivers in the house, but when you need one, they're nowhere. And you can't find the lid to this container.
  5. Why it seems that every time you say, "Oh, I'll put this in an obvious place, where I know I'll find it again," you're guaranteed to lose it forever. Does your logic abandon you when you're putting it in that 'super-obvious' place?
  6. When you're forced to eat something you don't want, or when you're getting full, the food seems to grow.
  7. The plant you nurture carefully is dying, but the weeds in your yard thrive despite efforts to kill them with flamethrowers, herbicides, salt, and hydrochloric acid.
  8. Where that five-foot long bug found a space big enough to get into your house.
  9. How your dinner managed to explode into a zillion pieces all over the interior of the microwave.
  10. Why a piece of technology (computer, stove, cell phone, etc.) has launched a personal vendetta against you. Just because you called it a piece of junk one or two hundred billion times...
  11. Why 'colonel' is pronounced 'kernel'.
  12. If you just vacuumed the floor, why is there debris? You just ran the vacuum cleaner over that spot five seconds ago.
