    So that you can have a different colour for every day of the week, and never forget which day it is.


    Why can't Americans spell colour?

    Because English is not English to Americans...they dont like silent letters, they remove them. Which is clever when you think about it..like lite...why do you need the gh? I want to spell the american way...lol...saves on ink to, and text...

    Facial hair? On men, lol

    Well i would feel less masculine if i couldnt grow it. But i would much rather live in a world where men just dont get facial hair.

    If numbers are infinite would there be a number cat that would come after some kabrillion zeros sized number?

    Yes. +1


    Why can't Americans get the hang of the fact that the ~llion suffix means "sets of SIX noughts" ... so that a mono llion (million) is 1,000,000; a bi lllion is 1,000,000,000,000 and a tri llion is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000? The number Americans call a billion (1,000,000,000) is a milliard (look it up if you don't believe me ... )

    Everyone would be calling cookies "cookies", and no one would be calling them "biscuits".

    Its hard to see at night so people chose that time to sleep. When lights were invented people were just set in thier ways.

    Why do they say i before e except after c when there are lots of examples of that being wrong?

    Nail is a little more polite - although they are neither really polite.

    Why is it so difficult to think up questions when you are intoxicated?

    Edit: actually screw is probably more polite than nail...still neither are polite.
