One thing in life I will never understand is "how do they figure Women's clothes sizes?" (like pants for example. For a man, it's easy - measure his waist, if his waist is 36", guess what? he wears size 36. Easy. But for a woman, if she has a 36" waist, she wears - i don't know - size 14 (I think). How do they figure that out????

Mabey it's a body image thing? Smaller numbers make them feel thinner?

:D really.... don't let people see that, though :D

Glow in the dark vampires would be cool. Like if they were human sized glow sticks.

My... dad likes Twilight. :/

People that think they are the exception. For example a person that parks in a handicap zone and says to someone or to themselves 'ah, i will only be 2 minutes and it's only me, nobody else is using it and i don't do it all the time' --- do they not understand that if everyone started doing that it would be out of control --- that was only one example of many

That's so common, like: I only take that one extincted seashell.

Probably the same people that leave their shopping carts in the middle of the grocery market aisles or leave the toilet seats all wet and messy or trash around exercise paths (can walk around for hours each day but can't spend a few seconds to bend down and pick an item of trash)

I will never understand why people believe in something that there is no evidence for such as religion! It may give people comfort, but it's false and religion is the biggest killer on the planet - 9/11 for example?

not the religion kills but what the people make out of it.

(Jun 12 '10 at 18:24) Sephor

@Sephor: "What people make out of it" is what defines religion. If people didn't interpret the meaning of the texts, we'd all go nuts trying to obey them in their literal translations (or learning the native languages and going nuts after that).

(Nov 27 '10 at 17:40) tsilb

Wow! Way to be closed-minded and wrong at the same time! @Sephor got it right, it's not the religion that caused that, it's the person(s). Please, before you spew hatred ... stop.

Agreed. I get paranoid when one person is watching me on a bus or train never mind 400 people globally.

I will never understand why people do stupid things, when they know they shouldn't. I will never understand why some people fell that if they change lanes and cut others off that they will get somewhere faster. Ya buddy look at that we are at the same red light.

Well, some people do stupid things because they're stupid people, and they know they shouldn't do stupid things but they don't know what the stupid things are ;) As for cutting off when changing lanes... Well, yeh, they're getting to the red light quicker ;) woohoo!

(Jun 13 '10 at 05:35) Seb

I love it when people do that so I can turn and look at them with a smile once we pull up to the red light.
