Questions you've always wanted to asked...

Why have i got hayfever????????

Because you're amongst the hundreds of thousands of people who have an immune system sensitive to pollen, like me. :(

There's not much you can do other than take antihistamines to try and settle your reaction down and limit your exposure to grassy areas. Oh and don't rub your eyes.

There's some relief on the way soon hopefully with some rain to dampen it down.

what are those grey boxes on poles that the Royal Mail use, why are they there?

I think they are for storing mail bags in, so say they have 2 or 3 bags to deliver they will leave one in a secure box, deliver the rest and then return to the box and finish there deliveries.
 
Why have I got a headache and why do pain killers work fast sometimes, but other times take ages to kick in?

Why do the Royal Mail charge £8 for an "International Clearance Fee", ontop of the customs tax?

Why does my dog go mental when my mobile rings?

Did South Africa poison the All Blacks in the 1995 World Cup final?

It depends on the type of pain and where it's localised. There are many types of headaches and the brain is a complex organ, so no dose is going to have the same effectiveness as the last.

Dogs have a more sensitive and acute sense of hearing than us. They can hear frequencies we cannot, and hear sounds very clear that we can hear as very faint. Your high pitched ringing is probably 10x louder to your dog, than to you.

It is alleged that they were, but no official enquiry occurred and thus it was never officially confirmed or not. The evidence is there though.
 
Who asked that?

I cannot burp either. Only very rarely when I bend down or something and a little one comes out. Otherwise I just make croaking noises. My missus finds it cute, but I find it bloody annoying, especially after 3-4 pints and I just want to burp so I can drink some more. :p

It has something to do with oesophagus muscles being too tense and not letting air come back up properly. You can get it fixed with surgery if you have stomach problems but for most people you're told to live with it.
 
I asked it!

I CAN burp, quite spectacularly sometimes (although don't tell anyone, Im supposed to be a laydee doncha know!) but I can't make myself burp. I feel inadequate :(
 
Perhaps the people who cannot burp are not people after all, but giant hamsters in disguise. Could this be the unearthings of a giant hamster invasion? :eek:

No because you are moving together with the surface of the earth.

I think that while you are airborn, if you have velocity relative to the surface of the Earth you will experience Coriolis force and your trajectory will be a curve, anticlockwise in the Northern hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern.

If there is a higher being who created man and also shower baths, why do our armpits and crotch not face upwards?
 
What is God: I think god could be anything.. it doesnt say what god is in the bible.. so i think god is Energy.. we worship energy because that gives us life.. lol.. there could have been many many universes before, because when the universe implowds, it will then explode again and start a new world..
 
Some people have views of God that are so broad and flexible that it is inevitable that they will find God wherever they look for him. One hears it said that 'God is the ultimate' or 'God is our better nature' or 'God is the universe'. Of course, like any other word, the word 'God' can be given any meaning we like. If you want to say that 'God is energy', then you can find God in a lump of coal.

Everyone knows God is a DJ.

Why do cats stand on a soft surface, repeatedly pressing down with their two front paws while purring?

Because they have mental problems! Well, that's how I explain my Siamese cats' crazy padding (Though one prefers to pad people, but the other likes to pad soft cuddly toys :rolleyes: )
