Why???

[Bouncy Ball]

Why do I need a three foot long receipt when I bought two items at the store?

Why do greetings cards cost, on average, $4-5 each now?

Why did anyone think feathers on a lampshade was a good idea?

Why don't I have a hovercraft board and a car that runs on air? It's almost 2005, for crying out loud.

Why can't a dog be litter trained, too?

Why do kids take five hours to get to the point of their story?

1. Why can't I stay away from DU?

[Bouncy Ball]

4. Another good why question.

Hey are you feeling better? :hug:

[Sannum]

15. Yes, I am.

I was just going to post about it, so I will make it short here and post again on that thread. I just got to reading it, so I am sorry that I have been "ignoring" everyone. I figured out why I had a panic attack. When I lost the job I had before, it was because of some still unknown reason, so I am paranoid about losing the one that I have now. I opened and closed the store I work at yesterday, and when I got home I realized that I made a mistake with the "Z Report" and accidentally added a returned item to the day's sales tally. It is a somewhat complicated procedure and it was my first time doing it alone. This morning, I e-mailed the corporate office to clear the matter up. I go in tommorow and I will try to be mellow and calm, and do the damn "z" report the right way this time. I think this is what the panic attack was about. The way I lost my last job is still affecting me. One day, I was being praised by the Creative Director for the company, and the next, I was fired. Between the election one week, and the other job which I loved being taken from me, I was so depressed, and I realize now that I probably didn't leave the house or get out of my jammies for two weeks.

I am much better though, thanks for asking.:hug:

21. Aw, geez that DOES sound tough.

Go easy on yourself, pamper yourself a bit. Long warm bath, hot mocha latte, maybe?

Take care!!! Glad to hear you identified the problem, that's a big part of preventing future panic attacks. They SUCK!

22. I did both today.

Never underestimate the healing power of Chocolate and Bubble Bath.:)

13. He's a rapper that has a song called "Why"

here's an excerpt.

Why would niggaz push pounds and powder
Why did bush knock down the towers
Why you around them cowards
Why Aaliyah have to take that flight
Why my nigga D ain't pull out his Ferrari
Why he take that bike
Why they gotta open your package and read your mail
Why they stop lettin' niggaz get degreez in jail
Why you gotta do eighty-five percent of your time
And why do "niggaz" lie in eighty-five percent of they rhymes
Why a nigga always want what he can't have
Why I can't come through in the pecan Jag
Why did crack have to hit so hard
Even though it's almost over
Why niggaz can't get no jobs
Why they come up wit the witness protection
Why they let the terminator win the election
Come on, pay attention
Why sell in the stores what you can sell in the streets
Why I say the hottest shit but we sellin' the least

"Why did bush knock down the towers" and I thought 'cause he's muslim.' I'm kidding,

8. You are my favorite on DU

can't deny it:-)

7. $4-$5 for a greeting card?

Where are you buying those? Yikes! I never pay more than $3, and usually not even that much.

Kids...well, they like to talk. They're learning how to tell a story, and getting the finer points down takes time. ;)

The car? Yeah. And I want to know why we don't have moving sky-sidewalks, cars that fold up into briefcases, talking robot maids, and automated showers. I saw a documentary earlier tonight that showed just these very technological advancements. (Either that or I was watching the Jetsons with my kids.)

14. This is so funny!!!

When I was typing that post, I happened to think of you! Glad to see you, how are you?

17. I am tired.

The inlaws were here from Thursday afternoon until this afternoon. We had a lot of fun, but I'm emotionally and physically very tired. :)

I just got done downloading and saving a boatload of pictures!

[Bouncy Ball]

19. Whew, sounds exhausting.

Can't wait to see them! (Hint, hint!)

:hi:

9. Why not???

:P

10. Here ya go....answers!

Why do I need a three foot long receipt when I bought two items at the store?

Refuse to accept it or question why they're handing you toilet paper.

Why do greetings cards cost, on average, $4-5 each now?

You're supporting starving artists-if you'd rather not, make your own out of store receipts.

Why did anyone think feathers on a lampshade was a good idea?

???? When lamps fly?

Why don't I have a hovercraft board and a car that runs on air? It's almost 2005, for crying out loud.

You can buy an air car from Italy-check it out, it's cool. Runs off an air compressor! Invent a hovercraft board for the masses and get rich-then you can buy the air car for cash!

Why can't a dog be litter trained, too?

They'd eat their own poo....

Why do kids take five hours to get to the point of their story?

For the same reason that the years go faster as you get older.

Hope this helps!

11. How about...

Why can you potty train a puppy in a few months and it takes a kid about 2-3 years?

[fluffernutter]

12. why do juiceboxes make such good squirtguns?

why do customers who sit on their asses and call by phone get service before the customers who actually got in their cars and drove to the store?

why do people put on their motion detectors when taking the ferry?

why is fudge so damn tempting?

[Longgrain]

18. LOL!!!

Why to custumers in a grocery store alway ask emploees..."Do you work here?"

[Bouncy Ball]

20. No, I'm just negotiating world peace.

I always wanted to be really smart ass when people asked me that.

Just like when you go in a place and you are ordering ALL this freaking food and you are by yourself and they say "will that be for here or to go?"

"Um, I think I'll eat all 70 fucking hamburgers right here."
