Pointless questions people want to know

I'll start:

Why does a sandwich that is made by someone else taste better than a sandwich you make for yourself?

Why is a "foot" 12 inches when not everybody's foot is 12 inches?

How much fudge could a fudge trucker truck if a fudge trucker could truck fudge?

If you're bilingual, what language do you think to yourself in your mind with?

Would you rather fight 1 horse-sized duck, or 100 duck-sized horses?

I actually known someone who speaks 8. He said once you really are fluent you think in whatever language you are speaking in. Otherwise it was either german (his native language) or english.

When you've mastered it is when you dream in other languages

Yellow. Everyone who says otherwise is wrong

Cuz you're making someone else make it for you.

Cuz foot was used by different countries and measured different length. In the end, it came out to be 12".

This is more of tongue twister than pointless question.

Don't forget, there's no such thing as a "language" in the brain... kinda like PC w 0's & 1's. I speak, Japanese & English and when I dream, I dream in both language. Some nights, I dream in different language that I don't even know.

Speaking of brain. Human thinks average of 300~400 words per min.. but human can speak 100~150 words per min. What happens to other words didn't use?

Why do people buy a well-handling, "under-powered" import sports car with 'good' MPG and try to cram as much HP in it as possible... when they can just buy a cheaper domestic car with 2X the HP and lower MPG from the factory?

It feels good to be the underdog and "win" but when in fact you spent 10k for it to be equal(or slightly faster) to the "better" car.

If corn oil is made from corn, and linseed oil is made from linseed, what is baby oil made from?

Why aren't there five people on each team when playing tennis? Shouldn't it be called twois? Maybe mixed fouris?

How come you can't be chalant? I mean... you can be nonchalant, so the concept of "chalance" exists...

God Bless, Mr. Carlin. I hope you're at peace, and thanks for all the laughs.
