The unpopular or otherwise, question thread.

Why do people interpret the speed limit as how fast you are required to go? It's the limit, meaning you shouldn't go over it. It doesn't mean you aren't allowed to go slower. If going slow were an issue, wouldn't they post a speed minimum?

So why do I get so annoyed when I'm behind someone going slower than the speed limit? Muahahaha.

If both the humans and the alien beings are consenting, I do not see any issues.
Why would it be unethical to "create hybrids"?

Maybe it is against the laws of the Galactic Federation for different beings from different parts of the universe to produce offspring? Malevolent beings who wish to take over a certain planet could use interbreeding as a clandestine way to slowly eke out the indigenous population and replace them with more placid, conformative hybrids?

Why do some women walk around in pain and ruin their feet with super high heeled shoes? These shoes seem to get higher and at worse angles each year.

Maybe they are too short? Too vain?

Best regards,

I believe (I could be wrong) women* wearing high heels first gained popularity because it made their derriere look better and also made them look taller (sleeker) during a time when skinny was in. Now it's even more fashion based, and fashion has never been very logic or comfort oriented.

Personally, while I like what a high heel does for the shape of the female rear end, I think anything over an inch or so in height is overkill, and some of the heels I've seen just make me feel uncomfortable and nervous for the person wearing them. I've never understood why anyone wore stilettos at all (I have absolutely no shoe fetish feelings).


*High heels were originally designed for men.

Here in Montana there is a law (or there was back when I got my first driver's license) that says if you are driving 15 mph slower than the speed limit as soon as you back up four vehicles you are required to pull over so they can pass. However, except for myself and my parents (on the few occasions when we needed to drive that slowly) I've never seen anyone else do this, and I've never heard of anyone ever being ticketed.

-I live in farm country so in addition to Sunday drivers, oldsters, and etc. I have to deal with farm equipment on the road also. Nothing more fun (sarcasm) than getting stuck behind a 15 mph combine for several miles on the highway - especially when you're in a hurry.

When I was in high school I asked a highway patrol officer (who was speaking at the school) why they didn't pull over slow drivers (as I felt they constituted a driving hazard and also caused others to behave recklessly - in passing them and trying to make up time) he just laughed and didn't answer me.

One of my friends says she finds high heels comfortable and she finds walking with a low heel to feel too hard on her feet. She wears heels around the house too. I usually have bare feet, sandals or slippers in the summer and slipper boots or the most soft, comfortable low heeled vegan boots I can find in the winter.

-I don't like or use marijuana myself, however I think it should be legal as much of the current effort to keep it outlawed is based on the outright lies that these people started, those lies having been kept going by those that feel they need to protect other people's morals and that any drug use is "bad". Plus those that benefit financially from it's being illegal - i.e. the DEA, other law enforcement entities, drug producers and dealers.

I agree. I think some people just accept what the government tells them without questioning.

It feels like people just base their morals on what's legal currently. It's annoying.
If the majority were vegan, would the price of vegan alternatives go down?

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?

 

[ledboots]

They long to be close to you?

 

[Dropkick]

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?

Because I look seedy.

According to the law of supply and demand they should. However according to my experience with the market place they might even go up in price.

 

[beancounter]

Because I look seedy.

No, because you're a good carpenter, and they want you to build them a birdhouse.

 

[ledboots]

Why are there clocks and a concept of "time" if people are just going to be late all the time and make others wait?

 

[Dropkick]

Why does everybody continue to expect me to be on time when they know the concept of time eludes me?

 

[Spang]

When a boy band is singing about a woman, are they all singing about the same woman?

If you're feeling really sad would pouring Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo over yourself make you feel better?

If you're feeling really sad would pouring Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo over yourself make you feel better?

No, because it's not vegan
I get it's not a "requirement", but why do a lot of vegetarians not care about animal testing? I understand the dairy addiction part though

 

[Second Summer]

Why are there no black or yellow ducks in Donald Duck?! And no LBGT ducks?!

 

[ledboots]

Daffy Duck is black! And Bugs Bunny used to cross dress frequently.

 

[Danielle]

If people hate vegans, why is it trendy for celebrities to go "vegan"? When they're usually not even vegan in the first place
