Things That Don't Make Sense To Me Today

 1.  Family-friendly drag shows.  It's like talking about family-friendly stripper shows, or family-friendly bull-fights, or family-friendly swinger parties.

2.  Probably one-third of American society is today intolerant, and it's cranked up to the turbo level.....almost daily.

3.  Dog yogurt is a product marketed and sold for around $3.  How did dogs survive for centuries....without it?

4.  People seem to be graduating from high school.....who appear to be just as bright as  they were in the 8th grade.  

5.  How horrific will it be....if Maricopa County, Arizona....has to redo their entire election?  Will people be throwing themselves off their step-ladders, or hurling themselves against the pavement of their driveway?

6.  Oddly enough, the minute that someone utters that 'so-and-so' is a 'math-wiz'.....my BS-meter is probably pegging '7' automatically unless the kid/adult can give me a simple 10-word explanation for square root.

7.  When I see 'Jesus-status' handed to some political figure....I'm likely in a state of disbelief.  In 1980, this problem never came up.

8.  Being TRIGGERED in 1980 usually meant you dealt with something after downing a pitcher of beer.  Today?  TRIGGERED people need hours in some closet, a coach to unhinge you, and a vow to isolate the guilty party from your life.  

9.  Trying to spends tens of thousands a year on a single homeless guy, who won't clean up his drug problem, or put any enthusiasm into a 40-hour week.

10.  More polar bears exist today.....than 1960s....and a dozen times a year.....I get some woeful news that they are dying left and right.  

11. Society depends on rational human beings.  The minute that you start to have 50-percent in some irrational way....society won't last long.

12.  If you asked a hundred people to explain probability.....only those who took engineering courses, or statistical classes.....would be able to define the word.

13.  Lot of chatter in the UK.....up to four inches of snow predicted in the next week.  The suggestion is....four inches....will be enough to shut down the entire country.  Yeah, it's pretty comical.
