I DO understand why kids only hear swear words and remember only fun things. Brushing your teeth is boring.

I hope my comments weren't misconstrued as judging those that like Ben Stiller or anything else I mentioned. I just don't understand the appeal. And I mean that sincerely. :)

There are a lot of forms of enteraintment I don't understand. Like bullfighting. And soap operas. Including Desperate Housewives and other TV dramas. No appeal for me whatsoever.

I dont' understand the fear of technology that so many have. I'm not saying that I can't see the detriments of tech advancements. I'm just saying that it's a part of our societal evolution, and fearing it is like fearing growing older.

I dont' understand people that fear growing older either.

I don't understand why most of the time my apostrophe ends up outside of "don't". I've been typing for most of my life. I'm sick of going back and fixing it so I leave it "dont'" now. Unless I miraculously type it correctly the first time.

This I understand. Not that I fear being old. It's the growing old part. It's the watching my nose turn into a replica of my father's nose. Will MY nose become that veiny? Will it? I already notice small veins. Will they become raised old man nose veins?

Will my memory become even more squishy than it already is?

I already have the beginnings of arthritis, I fear.

Will I develop that shrinking slouch so many tall older people get?

I already feel like I'm aging before my time. Took a left at puberty and straight into menopause...

So, yeah, I kinda understand that fear. Because though a lot of people improve with age, I have a feeling I'll be just the opposite. It won't happen with grace so much as with a ravaging, unstoppable force.

Bah.

This reminds me of the bitch bitch bitch story...

I had a really good line I used on them when they were a little younger...

"If you can't swear appropriately then you can't swear".

I'll never understand why we have to work on rainy days. Obviously it's not safe to drive and the company should care about it's employees safety and require them to stay home.

I'll never understand the meaning of life, the existence of God, or the true nature of reality.

Accepting that has made me a much happier soul.

Yep. It's a great cover. It's heartbreaking. I even like his version of "One" by U2.
:)

I don't understand people that have a deep rooted need to be introspective concerning just about everything but perhaps I'm being too self visualizing.


Ohh, and to catch up on a post from way back in this thread:

"I don't understand Monty Python"

The love off all things Python stems from a chemical imbalance in the brain. It is most commonly found in teenage adolescent males. Typically the imbalance is righted shortly after puberty however there are cases where it does seem to be permanent. Nee!

Your father smelt of eldeberries!

and your mother was a hampster.
