Just silly little things from every day life that you don't get.....

Right, I'll start:

1. I've been driving for 2 years or so and I STILL don't understand why you're not really allowed to have the inside light on in the car when you're driving in the dark. Who does it harm?

Why Americans insist on calling a game 'football' when the only time you touch it with your foot is when you've really f***ed up. It should be called "Forward passing handball with occasional kicking. And pads."

Not as catchy but a million times more accurate.

Edit - also why I can't spell 'occasional' without resorting to the spell check.

I didn't know you weren't allowed to, but it's pretty sensible not to. It's much harder to see out of the car if it is lighter inside.

That is disgusting. Apologise. Seriously, well out of order.

Why are there less left handed people than right handed people?

Interesting. As a leftie myself, I've always wondered what activity defines your handedness. I know it's do with left-side/right-side brain dominance, but I write left handed but play golf, cricket, guitar all right handed. Am I a bit amphibious ?

No, you're just weird.

Suprisingly I'm also a leftie, but play golf, cricket and guitar hero right handed.

Is it though? I was driving the other day with the inside light on for about 10 seconds and I genuinely don't believe it affected my vision at all.
