A thread to find out about all the stuff you wondered about but didn't want to ask.

I'll start

1. Do bogeys smell?

Captain Carbon

2. Who was the first person to go up to a cow and think, "I'll squeeze those dangly pink things and drink what comes out"

does repeatedly pressing the lift "call" button make it come any earlier

Why do you always feel like stumbling when going up or down stationary escalators?

Gordo

what is gravity?

Fantom

How do companies like Mazuma Mobile make any money?

Why did England think they could ever win the World Cup?

Why can't someone invent moob and beer-gut calorie free beer that still has the effect and taste of Stella?

Who found out that boiling kidney beans doesn't make you ill when you eat them?

I'll Try Everything has a scent

Probably a sexually confused welsh man

I had red belly button fluff the other day.

Nope.

Your mind plays tricks on you.

A force with an acceleration of 9.81 m/s on earth and a constant of 6.673 x 10^-11.


They either sell the phones in places where they cost more ( generally poorer countries) or they are melted down for the materials that are inside of them. They probably get a pay out from the government for recycling too.

Because they actually think they are worth the 50+ thousand pounds a week

Try instead, vodka? no taste similarities but you can have more before you gain moobs or beer guts.

Other than that you are bûggered .


My question... Why do i waste much of my life on this stupid forum

EddScott

Does the water really go down the plug hole the opposite way in Australia?

Geezer

No

vindaloo

Eh? I thought the answer was yes and yes... Yes it "usually" spins the other way and yes it's moving in a different direction if viewed from "off planet".

Only way it moves the same way is that it goes... down.

Because it is usually made up from the microfibres from your clothes and since blue jeans are the most common clothes , it makes sense that the fluff would have a higher % of blue.

Why is it always men who do the cooking at BBQs?

subaruturbo_18

Because cooking only with fire is considered manly.

Any other form of cooking is for gays and those without a *****.

Are you calling me an idiot?

EddScott

Its the Alpha Male syndrome. It impresses the female for reasons I've not quite worked out.


12. How does putting copper grease on the back of brake pads stop them squealing?

Geezer

The belief that water goes different ways down a plughole depending on where you are on the Earth is a myth. The Coriolis force, which results from the rotation of the Earth and results in which way storms rotate (anti-clockwise in the northern hemipshere, clockwise in the south) only works on oceans or atmospheres, it has no effect on small scale bodies, like a bath, for example. Any rotation on your water down the plughole is more likely to be determined by the shape of the plughole and what the water was doing when you pulled out the plug.

Apparently they do a nice trick at the equator in Kenya to 'demonstrate' this, but it only that, a trick.

Why do women think its acceptable to say they have a headache when you want sexy time ?

JPL

Cos you're ugly

It's so you know to go and knock one out instead.

Maybe it's her way if getting a good nights sleep without being prodded? Rather than gettting into bed and then you can't sneak off for a tug when you get the brush off.

Why do people have to park bang next to me when I go to the furthest reaches of any empty car park?

SPG

Why do men like the smell of aftershave and women like the smell of perfume yet it's supposed to be the other way around?..... or is that just me and I may have issues?!

WOW

Now I can finally sleep at night

I saw a film on the box once and it demonstrated that as you cross the equator the water in the plughole will spin the other way.

They had a movable plughole device and as they moved it from one side of the equator to the other the direction of spin changed.

I have no way of proving it was not a scam, but Mr Coriolis would have produced the explanation for it all!
