Dumb Questions Amnesty

Why do people watch air crash investigation?

I mean, I watch it, but for the life of me can’t understand why. Plane crashes, people die. It’s horrible.

I dont know. To be honest, I dont think I know anyone under 60 who watches free to air tv. Which is the only thing Ive seen that program on…about eight years ago.

I need something other than Essendon to rot my brain

It’s conceptually the same as crime dramas. Bad thing happens. People investigate why it happened. Almost all episodes end with problem solved.

Just these are based on real events.

What does ‘based’ mean on social media?

I’m old.

It’s used, usually online, to agree with someone that voices a controversial opinion or is being authentic without caring if it ruffles feathers.

If ever you’re unsure about this stuff just google the term and the words ‘urban dictionary’

Urban dictionary is great source for fossils like us that enables us to de-code what those kids in desperate need of a hair cut and a job are talking about. Kids these days, mate. I mean, f**k me.

Horses in movies, in particular old westerns.

How far can a horse really walk in a day carrying a person?

How fast can they gallop at top speed carrying a person?

In the real world do they cope running at high speed over rocky ground?

Why don’t companies put QR codes on their packaging?
I’m particularly talking about products that have a limited lifespan and will need replacing, in mycase…light globes.

Just seems stupid.
Particularly when Amazon is a thing.

My kids keep reminding me of how many cockroaches are ground up in each kg of ground coffee…is this true?

Yep it is true, only a problem if you have an allergy to cockroaches.

In any case, FDA have approved “an acceptable level” of bugs in coffee, so it is all ok.

Serves people right for buying ground coffee.

Got to buy a grinder ASAP

Or sign up to it.

Is there a way to track the water quality that comes into my house , surely this should be featured as forced to pay for it ?

Real easy to test at the tap, but that’s not necessarily the same as what’s coming into your property
