6. Pretend you're a banana fudge sundae
only one without any nuts and just a sprinkling on chocolate syrup. And the bananas have to be not too ripe but not too green either, and someone has accidentally left a little bit of peel on one of the pieces. And you have three differnet flavors of ice cream, but for this to work it HAS to be just plain vanilla, not the French stuff with the little vanilla beans in it. NO FROZEN YOGURT! Then, imagine yourself at a table in one of those diners with the crusty old waitress and the big clock on the wall. It is at that point, in your melted goodness, that you will discover...

8. Ok, let me see if I can explain this....
You're driving down the street, and there's an ambulance behind you. In your rearview mirror, it says "AMBULANCE" due to the fact they've written it backwards on the front, right?

Why is it, if you're facing a mirror and you move your left hand, the one directly across from it moves, not the other one? See what I'm saying? If images are reversed in a mirror, why aren't WE reversed?

I've asked at least a hundred billion people this question, and no one can explain it to where it makes sense to me. Which probably says more about my intelligence than I'd like...

9. A trick question
It took me a while to figure out what the FUCK you were talking about.

When you see the ambulance sign, you are looking in a mirror at something BEHIND you. The image is inversed.

When you are looking at a mirror in FRONT of you, the image is not inversed, so the same side reflects in the image.

good DEEP THOUGHT

10. Why?
When the salesman says it will pay for itself in X amount of time ...

do I have to make any payments?

It's supposed to pay for itself? :shrug:

11. I saw a recent update on no-stick pans
and learned that they are not necessarily safe. It did not surprise me, but it depressed me, since even the Food Network chefs advocate them.:-(
