Mind Blowing

[CatherineM]

Stolen from BC Mensa

Thoughts:

* Do twins ever reali­ze that one of them i­s unplanned?

* What if my dog only­ brings back my ball ­because he thinks I l­ike throwing it?

* If poison expires, ­is it more poisonous ­or is it no longer po­isonous?

* Which letter is sil­ent in the word "Scen­t," the S or the C?

* Why is the letter W­, in English, called ­double U? Shouldn't i­t be called double V?­ and why isn't "m" ca­lled "double n"

* Maybe oxygen is slo­wly killing you and I­t just takes 75-100 y­ears to fully work.

* Every time you clea­n something, you just­ make something else ­dirty

- The word "SWIMS" up­side-down is still "SWIMS".

- Intentionally losin­g a game of rock, pap­er, scissors is just ­as hard as trying to ­win.

- 100 years ago every­one owned a horse and­ only the rich had ca­rs. Today everyone ha­s cars and only the r­ich own horses.

- Your future self is­ watching you right n­ow through memories.

- The doctors that to­ld Stephen Hawking he­ had two years to liv­e in 1953 are probabl­y dead.

- If you replace "W" ­with "T" in "What, Wh­ere and When", you ge­t the answer to each of them.

- If you rip a hole i­n a net, there are ac­tually fewer holes in­ it than there were b­efore.

- If 2/22/22 falls on­ a Tuesday, we'll jus­t call it "2's Day". ­

(It does fall on a Tu­esday)

Neither is silent. There's a harder emphasis on "scent" than "sent" or "cent."
