Sometimes in life, you just stop and think... "Huh... now that just doesn't make any sense." It could be the way things are organized, the latest and trending fads, ridiculous things that people do, or silly names for food that don't really seem to make sense. Those things in life that make you scream, "WHY?!"
So without further ado, I give you 11 things that really just don't make sense to me. Those thoughts in my head that bother me and always make me question everything I've ever come to know in my 20 years of life.
1. Why do people keep up with the Kardashians?
I don't get it. I really don't understand the obsession. Why do I care if Kylie Jenner got a lip job? Why do I care that Kim Kardashian released new Kimojis? What impact do their lives have on mine? Why are people so busy keep up with their lives instead of living their own?!
2. Who discovered milk?
What were they doing with that cow? I mean, I love milk, but I just don't know why someone decided that we were going to drink the milk, and proceeded to started yankin' on their utters.
3. Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the glue bottle?
This is a pretty basic question that I think everyone has thought about at one time in their life. I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation for this, but it still hasn't been answered after all these years.
4. Why don't people use their turn signals?
It's there for a reason. It's not for decoration. Use it, people.
5. Why does a little 12 oz bottle of Coke cost $1.50 but a 2 liter bottle of Coke costs $2?
I understand that nobody's going to buy a 2 L bottle of Coke to-go. It's not convenient and it's not ice cold. I understand how the company is trying to make money... but if you look at it from a broad perspective, it just doesn't make sense that 12 oz is only $0.50 cheaper... It's a rip off and companies are making SO much money.
6. Why doesn't everyone just use the same currency?
Economy growth. Blah blah blah. It would just make traveling so much easier if you didn't have to exchange money for every country. And all the conversion rates are different and they're constantly changing. It's just a confusing mess.
7. Why do girls wear crop tops to class?
I don't get it. Why? I like crop tops as much as the next person, but there's certain situations for certain outfits. Personally, I don't think class is the right scenario for a crop top.
8. Why are shorts the same price as pants?
Shorts use a fraction of the material that pants use. Why are these shorts $40 and my pants are also $40?! It didn't cost the same amount of money to make those shorts as it did those pants... Let's be real...
9. "All guys/girls are the same."
Why do people say this? They aren't all the same. They're quite different actually. Stop saying they are, it's hurtful.
10. Who decided that women had to shave?
Someone throughout the course of history decided that women had to shave. I don't know who this person was, but if I could go back in time to any day in history, it might be this day.
11. There are rules for each state, but there are also rules for the whole country.
The nation makes the rules for everyone to follow, and each state must follow these rules, but then the states are also allowed to create their own rules. (Are you following me?) For example, you're allowed to get your permit at 15 1/2 years old in North Carolina but you must wait until you're 16 years old to get your permit in Pennsylvania. I don't get it. Why doesn't the US government just have one big ole rule book for everyone to follow? Why does each state have to have their own government and set of rules? This makes driving and moving homes within the country a bit confusing...
This is just the beginning of a large list of the things that confuse me in this mysterious world we live in. Hopefully, there are people out there that are just as confused as I am. If you have answers, please, send help.
