Why is it that........?

Why is it that:

When its cold outside people wish it was hot?
When its hot outside people wish it were cold?

Rich people never have enough money.
Poor people always have just enough.

There are hungry people in the United States, but we are always feeding underdeveloped countries.

People pay off their cars, and always have to trade them in for something better and newer when there is nothing wrong with the one they got.

Why do we have one way streets? Did they not realize that the road should have been wider?

at my house they cant seem to put the toothpaste cap back on the toothpaste

no matter what someone has they want more when they have more than most people

That people can except gay realtionships, but not ones that involve their own families.

Men must put down the toliet seat for women, women dont put the seat up for men.

Just a few random thought. Add on your own or answer mine.

I like this one, especialy now. I live just outside Detroit, and its Super Bowl weekend here.

And suddenly, the money and the means came availble to house and feed ALL the homeless folks from downtown, becuase we can't have the world seeing the reality.

and when the game is over and everybody leaves, all those homeless are getting booted back to the street.

So yeah...why can't we care for our own? we care for other countries, and we can care for our own when visitors come. Why is this so difficult to comprehend?

Ok, sorry, rant off. All good questions Princess.

It's same in the UK

GET this....

When her bloody Majesty came to a garrison church here they sprayed the beech hedge GREEN just so that it would 'look' nice, they supplied a brand new toilet facility especially for her which of course she did not use..
They went out and shot as many pidgeons as they could find just in case one decided to have a dump on or near her..

all this pomp and grandiousity makes me want to puke!

there are children in the UK who are being abused, neglected adn forced into prostitution at an early age....

Her Royal hieness doesnt seem to give a tinkers cuss about that though and people pour into the UK every year to see her and her grand homes and wonderful history.....

When you look back though it was worse then than it is now......

Its funny how the majority of people will turn a 'blind eye' to what is going on underneath thier noses. Like I have posted before in the mental health forum the way in which the school I worked the teachers were/are nothing but BULLIES!

Calling children names and abusing them verbally,,and I cannot do a thing because guess what the governor concerned is related to people working within the school...
By the way he has a CBE from her bloody majesty....

Can I stand up to these people? yes I can but who will end up worse off? yup you guessed it ME because I am not part of this English Army and Royal facade.


There thats my venting out!!

Love Purrdyxxxx

If i buff 3 pots or pans at work that will pay my salary for 2 weeks.
They want us to buff at least 500 pots or pans a day.
Whose makin out in this deal?

Some people think that their sh!t dont stink.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Every time they raise minimum wage they raise the prices on everything in the stores. Doesnt make any sense to me. What was the point in raising it then?

Why do we drive on one side of the road in the United States and they drive on the other in other countries.

when were kids were fearless
when were adults were scared to death of everything

kids want to be older
adults want to be younger

Skinny people always think theyre fat.

The grass is always greener on the other side.

why do we kill people in warfare to accomplish "peace"?

why am i getting sued by a bank when it was their friggin job to clear checks as counterfiet or not?

why do the best scams in the world involve the idea that you are helping people?

why do we say "in God We Trust" on USA Bank notes? is it because we cannot trust anyone else?

more later...this is a cool thread, thanks princess9.




Leftfield wrote these lyrics ..

How many bridges can they burn, till we turn?
How many lives can they take, till we break?
How many dreams TERRORIZED, till we rise?
How many visions will they burn, till we learn?

How many homes set alight, till we fight?
How many futures must we dream, till we scream?
How many sins must they repeat, till we're beat?
How many?
How many times?


--21st century poem, Leftism

yw emmanuel!

That you hardly ever get back as many socks as your put in the wash.

That I couldnt tell ya what I did last week but I know what happened on dora the explorer. lol

Kids never have to use the potty til u got them load up in the car and ready to go.

That you must have your kids in car seats until there 8 where I live, but the school buses dont even have seatbelts.
