Ok, so I stole this idea but it's from the days when the show was still fresh. Anyway, I am starting this thread for those of us who have stupid questions in our heads and were always afraid to ask because we might look...well, stupid! Hopefully, now we can find the answers.  |

Actually, originally golf balls were smooth - but lots of scientists who are smarter than I am got together, hit some golf balls and realized that by dimpling the ball you cut down on drag (air resistance) - so a dimpled ball goes farther.

Why is it more expensive to get a pickle & a drink at the movies than to get into the actual movie?

Movie theaters actually make their money on concessions. Most of the price of the ticket goes to the production studios & distributors. I have worked in concessions before and the mark up on popcorn is rediculous!! They could sell a small popcorn for 50 cents and still make money!!  |

Men don't change toilet paper for the same reason they don't make the bed. It's a question of form vs. function. Women want everything to look nice and pretty. Men couold mostly give a d*mn how it looks so long as it works. So why make a bed you'll be getting back into in a few hours (especially with those stupid decorative pillows). Why go through the trouble of putting the roll on the little dipenser when the back of the toilet works just fine.
If company's coming, sure - we'll make the bed, hang the "good" towels and hook up the toilet paper. If not, don't fill our lives with decorative pillows, towels and soaps we can't use, it's frivolous, unneccessary, and a waste fo energy. There are better ways to spend our time.
