Title: Things that make you go Hmmmmmm
Post by: HolyCount on 04 April 2008, 18:01:52
Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby"  when babies wake up every two hours?

My favourite are these two:

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these pink dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?"

Who was the first person to say, "See that chicken there... I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta it's bum."

What WERE they thinking of ???
