Idle thoughts

[Desiree]

a peek into my mind and what happens when I space out ;D

 

Why does k stand for 1000?

 

Why does pepper make everyone sneeze but me?

 

When your skin gets dry, why does it itch?

 

Why do cookies and cakes and brownies taste better as dough/batter?

 

What inspired the wheel?

 

If parking spaces used to be blue, and that's now the color for handicapped parking, what color did handicapped parking spaces used to be?

 

Why did cars have to lose their tailfins?

 

Why did I enter this room?

 

Who are you people?

[Edielin]

1) K = Okay = Money, obviously = Good money = £1000 = 1000?

 

2) Divine intervention on your behalf. Thank me?

 

3)Google is your friend. My friend too!  :D

 

4)...

 

5)I did. My egocentric benevolence inspired the primitive cavemen towards greater hights of the term "homicidal"!

 

6)...

 

7)Good question.

 

8)You love me?

 

9)Your God, and the person who's currently hunting for that signature file. Sorry, Poledra.  :-[

1. Why does k stand for 1000?

  Kilo, originates from the Greek word χιλιάς, or chilio meaning thousand.

 

2. Why does pepper make everyone sneeze but me?

  You are weird, but so am I? Or it just irritates the sensors in the nose like dust and such causing an

  involuntary need to force all foreign objects out?

 

3. When your skin gets dry, why does it itch?

  Dead skin cells build up, has more germs, or you're just a southern woman from a humid area now in an arrid

  place?

 

4. Why do cookies and cakes and brownies taste better as dough/batter?

  I'd assume some flavor and ingredients are cooked out by heat and such.

 

5. What inspired the wheel?

  The need to more easily move items from one place to anoter?

 

6. If parking spaces used to be blue, and that's now the color for handicapped parking, what color did

  handicapped parking spaces used to be?

  No idea, I know the temporary handicap things are red, so maybe red

 

7. Why did cars have to lose their tailfins?

  They became more stylish and a Honda Accord or some other newer car would look ABSOLUTELY retarded with

  tailfins...

 

8. Why did I enter this room?

  Because the doorway was sepparating this room and the last

 

9. Who are you people?

  We are not real, we are the voices in your head forming visual aspects to fool your brain into thinking

  you're not crazy

Why did cars have to lose their tailfins?

 

Thats easy, the tailfin forces the back wheels closer to the road, which is great for steering in a rear wheel drive vehicle, but with a front wheel drive vehicle it is actually more of a hindrance to steering, since it reduces contact with the road on the front tires, and increases it on the back tires.
