Things that make you go, "Hmm."

Why do careless, carefree, and uncaring not mean the same thing?

 

Why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway?

 

If an orange tree was to be grown on an aircraft carrier, would it produce naval oranges?

A cat will lick itself clean including licking its rear-end.  So how bad must some cat food be to cause the cat to turn its nose up and walk away?  I mean I sure would hope the food tastes better than what the cat's been licking.  Cat Tongue

Following is a photo of the new self-service key making kiosk at my local Walmart.  There are two things to note:  "average price per key $1.33" and "Exact Payment - No Coins".  Anyone care to explain how to accomplish that?

@doni49 OK, I figured it out.

I'm actually so mentally persnikity that I sat and figured it out.

 

First clue: $1.33 is not the regular price, it is the price "With Free Key Offer"

What is the free key offer? I used a little guesswork.

 

My guess: regular price $2.00 per key.

Free key offer: buy two keys, get a third free.

$4.00 for 3 keys = $1.33 average price per key.

My 20month old son loves the expensive medicated dry (thankfully) cat-food that our cat frequently turns his nose up at.. His breath smells a bit meal-y but he has a lovely glossy coat now..

Only in the USA can you charge someone $2.00 per key and say "No Coins"!

And that can get really difficult when you start dealing with State and County or City sales tax!

this one always comes to my mind when talking of such. But to me the bigger question is why the judge even entertains such an insane suit. And before anyone says anything, yeah, i know we are all due our time, but at some point we could have saved a lot of time and money if the judge would have just said "so, because you're an idiot..."

"I'm Ok"

 

Hehe, still laughing

Judging from my previous posts, apparently there are girls with a dynamic CAD block fetish out there. Good news for many of us!

Don't be sorry. Instead, consider adding a Report-button to private messages, because whoever this person is, he/she is creating new accounts.
