i didnt read the whole thing but i can answer a few.
yes jello does go bad. theres some jello in my fridge and it doesnt look very pretty. donuts have holes because a long time ago a sailor was eating a cake and he stuck the cake onto one of the spokes of the ship wheel so he could steer. m&m's all taste the same, they just make them colorful so it would seem well..colorful. i think thats why one of their slogans are "color my world" um..im guessing but i think the reason why the abbreviation for pound is lb is because the scientific word for pound has something to do with lb most of them is kinda stupid actually and its all pretty logical. i dont even know why i answered some of them |

Actually, if I will explain each one, ready? Let's go.
Why do people say "no offense" when they're about to offend someone? Maybe, they want to state the truth and the other might think it's offensive, I bet you, you say that yourself. Why do they have the back pain medicine on the bottom shelf at the pharmacy? It's possible that each one is categorized by it's scientific name, ever thought of that? They have a show called "Unsolved Mysteries." What other kind of mysteries are there? Well, there's mysteries that are already solved, there are some shows that show solved mysteries and how the people got to that conclusion. Do they make coffins wider for dead fat people or is it a 1 size fits all kind of thing? I think a coffin itself is wide enough, that it give the dead body a lot of space, also, besides that fact, you're dead, so why do you care? Does Jell-o EVER go bad? There usually isn’t an expiration date on it? Jelly will develop mold, it will go bad. Try it for yourself. When the person who writes the obituaries dies, who writes their obituary? I'm sure there's a lot of obituary writes out there. Why do old men have hair in their ears? Well, everyone has hair in their ears, it's just that those guys don't trim it at all or anything and besides, they are old, what do they care? Why are buttons on guys' shirts on a different side than girls' shirts? Girls are much more stylish than guys. Plus, most girls design their own clothing, must have been some goof. If bunnies don't lay eggs why is it on Easter that we hide eggs from the Easter Bunny? Bunnies are a whole nother concept, have you realized there is something also called an easter chick? Why are things typed up but written down? Ah, the english language; ugly. How come u can kill a deer and put it on your wall but its a illegal to keep them as a pet? One less mouth to feed, plus you need a hunter's certificate or something to get it up. Bleh, those are just a few. I'm too lazy. |

wow, that's a lot to read, but i read through all of that- and you repeated some of them. i'll just answer the ones that i know
QUOTE Why is the abbreviation for pound lb. when l or b isn't in the word pound? because the latin word for pound is libra, and since we like borrowing words/roots from Latin, there you go QUOTE What's the opposite of opposite? similar QUOTE Do the minutes on the movie boxes include the previews, credits, and special features, or just the movie itself? i think its just for the movie QUOTE Why are toe nail clippers bigger than finger nail clippers when your toe nails are smaller than your finger nails? because toenails are thicker QUOTE Can I get arrested for running into a Fire House yelling Movie! Movie!? no, i don't think so QUOTE If you are born on February 29 of a leap year, when is your birthday? either feb. 29 when it comes around, or on feb. 28 or march 1 every other time QUOTE Why is it at a Chinese restaurant an egg roll is called that when there is no egg in it? because there's egg in the wrap of the egg roll. |

wow you have a lot of concerns there..well since im bored..im gona answer all of them even though no one will bother to read. at least its entertaining for me.
Why do people say "no offense" when they're about to offend someone? just in case they do offend someone Why do they have the back pain medicine on the bottom shelf at the pharmacy? i guess it doesnt matter where it goes They have a show called "Unsolved Mysteries." What other kind of mysteries are there? im not into mysteries, so i dont know Do they make coffins wider for dead fat people or is it a 1 size fits all kind of thing? thats a good question. i think they come in different sizes. cuz if there was a dead fat person, how would they fit them in one regular size one? no offense..lol Does Jell-o EVER go bad? There usually isn’t an expiration date on it? jello should have an expiration date on it cuz i mean its JELLO! u can easily tell something will happen to it after a few months. wait it depends if its the powdered one (the one where u make urself). the regular kind im sure has an expiration date. its gelatin.. When the person who writes the obituaries dies, who writes their obituary? i dont even know what that is...lol Why do old men have hair in their ears? they're getting old. i dont think all of them do. Why are buttons on guys' shirts on a different side than girls' shirts? just to tell if its a guy or girl's shirt cause there ARE some shirts that looks like a guys or girls shirt. If bunnies don't lay eggs why is it on Easter that we hide eggs from the Easter Bunny? i never even knew we hide it from the easter bunny. i thought it was just some kind of game thats fun for people. Why are things typed up but written down? i dont get it How come u can kill a deer and put it on your wall but its a illegal to keep them as a pet? that's true. killing one and putting it in ur wall should be illegal. having a deer pet should be legal. Why does caregiver and caretaker mean the same thing? it doesnt sound the same thing but i guess its just that way. In some books, why do they have blank pages at the very end? just for a public reason im sure. not all books are like that either. If you were on a plane going the speed of sound and walked from the back of the plane to the front, would you be walking faster than the speed of sound? wow, i don't know. this question is so scientific. If the universe is expanding, what is it expanding into? another scientific one..i guess im just dumb.

If you're caught "between a rock and a hard place", is the rock not hard? depends how hard the other place is. If one man says, "it was an uphill battle," and another says, "it went downhill from there," how could they both be having troubles? uphill, cause its a high place and downhill cause going down has more speed and something dangerous might happen like falling down or something. Why is it you can walk down a road, even if it goes uphill? your legs help along with the muscles that have strength to give pressure Why do we say "bye bye" but not "hi hi"? that is so true..well maybe byebye just sounds better Can blind people be dyslexic when they read Braille? hm no idea How do you handcuff a one-armed man? maybe they dont cuff them or maybe they have a special cuff invented for one armed people Why is the abbreviation for pound lb. when l or b isn't in the word pound? i always wondered that too, but never figured out so sorry.

Why is it we have the weight of the world on our shoulders but have to get it off our chests? i think getting the world off our chests is just a saying for people. Why does everyone speak different languages and have different accents if we all originally came from the same place? well if you read the bible, God gave them different styles of speaking/languages because in a story that happened long time ago when everyone had the same language, they were building a tall tall and i mean really tall building to reach heaven cuz they wana know if it was real and so God stopped them by giving them different styles of speaking so they would stop that by having difficulties communicating. so those builders gave up. yeah its true.
