I don't get why people cheer if; cutlery, glasses or plates are dropped at a restaurant or bistro.

One way to expose what country I'm from :wink:

Wahay!! !! ! :lol:

I always thought it was a way to embarrass the dropper even more, my GF says it sometimes takes the heat of the dropper in the eyes of the boss especially if they are posh dishes.

I don't get race swapping. It messes with my head. Albert Wesker was a white guy in the Resident Evil games and met his demise in the fifth title. In the Netflix show they brought him back alive as a black man which didn't make any sense. I didn't watch the show, didn't want to and I have so many questions that I suspect would either not be answered or have disappointing answers.

Then we have Deadshot from the Arkhamverse. Portrayed as a white guy from Arkham origins to Arkham city then race swapped for Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League which canonically takes place after Arkham Knight. Why did they do this? Because he was black in the DCEU. Will they explain how it is canonically possible for this race swap to happen? Nope. Also King Shark and Captain Boomerang are supposed to be dead. They died in Assault on Arkham an Arkhamverse film and the Arkham Knight tie-in comics. It's so confusing how they can't keep things consistent.

I don't 'get' cuddling after sex. I have never cuddled anyone after sex. Just, why? The most I've done is put my hand against their arm for a few minutes.

I don't even get cuddling before, but hey ... that's just me. :mrgreen:

I don't get the race swapping in TV commercials like the State Farm Insurance commercials. Jake from State Farm was originally a white guy who suddenly had black skin. If they wanted to have a black guy for PR they shoulda created a new character instead of changing the race of an existing one. I never heard of any black people saying they had a better impression of State Farm because Jake's skin color somehow turned black. However I heard some say they have a worse impression because they know it's a bogus PR stunt.

I don't get how Gordie wasn't my partner's twin bro.

RIP Gord

Maybe I'll have an all-dead-artists music day?

Often I'm the same but sometimes I need talking down from my unhappy mood to feel like getting into a happy sex mood.

I don't get why it's so hard for some people to be a Sweet Pea.

Ahhh - true! Sorry! I remember you said that!

Hope things are going well for you KitLily.

I know the countdown is on for you to move next summer!

I don't get why I've had the same to-do list for about a month and I keep doing things but the list is always the same, like I haven't started. I guess I'm doing partial things?

Why commercials can be louder than the TV shows?

Why just her back?

I'm sorry but the back is synonymous with the behind, and Joe's situation where she is tired of hearing sexual stuff around is a sensitive one.

I ask everyone in the future all of us keep such jokes outside of this thread. Thank you for your understanding.

I took this out of The Haven for obvious reasons, but what the {redacted} ?
