    Is a bird in the hand, worth two in the bush?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdfeW2h8Qo4

    I found this quote as to describing what Bird in the hand really means!

    "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" is an old adage. It means that whatever you actually possess has more value than something else that you only see (and desire) but do not actually own. I think the woman's reaction in this commercial is spot-on perfect. The slight hesitation, as if the thought that this could REALLY be worth "that much" is exactly right."



  • Imagin these so funny. I love your "Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM?" LMAO

  • If someone asks you if you know what a rhetorical question is, is that a rhetorical question?

  • There is something that we do say out here in Vegas and Cali...

    When something is really funny, or stupid we use the question "Am i mad at that?" or say "I'm mad at that"
    I was trying to figure why we say we are mad at that when it's something so funny, it's because we laugh so hard it hurts.. so we tell the person that made us laugh so hard.. "i'm mad at that" makes us mad cuz we laughed so hard we hurtin'!


  • Imagin these so funny. I love your "Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM?" LMAO


    Do you know the answer to this one? It's pretty mundane really. Just think about it . .

    Being in banking myself, I am very familiar with the reasons. It has to do with security, privacy and regulatory requirements to accommodate people with disabilities.

    The odd thing is customers are not allowed to "walk up" to a "drive up" ATM per most banks' policy. At least that's the case here in the states.

    That one just stood out to me laugh_out_loud
  • Well, the word "drive up" and "braille" don't seem to go together, if you are blind you sure won't be driving, it's not nessesary, i know everyone knows that but the braille are put there anyway ending it in a Rhetorial Question.. still why?

  • Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

    Why is it that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

    If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?


  • Which spelling is correct Rhetorial like the post? Or is it Rhetorical like chilly's post? I don't think either one or correct I wanted post to get the correct answer before I looked it up. lazy laugh_out_loud
  • Rhetorical question
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Jump to: navigation, search

    A rhetorical question is a figure of speech in the form of a question posed for its persuasive effect without the expectation of a reply (e.g.: "Why me?")[1] Rhetorical questions encourage the listener to think about what the (often obvious) answer to the question must be. When a speaker states, "How much longer must our people endure this injustice?", no formal answer is expected. Rather, it is a device used by the speaker to assert or deny something.

    Found it, chilly you are the winner smart girl.

  • I  vote for Chilly!  (wink wink)

    it comes from rhetoric -

  • It's rhetorical LMAO.. i was hoping no one would see it  :-[

    when i realized i had it spelled wrong, it was too late to fix it  :-[

    I love them anyway  :-[

    I think i'll keep Rhetorial.. and it's meaning is "to TRY to answer the Rhetorical Questions"


  • Imag, laugh_out_loud Great post no matter how it spelled. cool

    That froggy, and the fact that the interface for these atm's are mass produced as generic atm interfaces. They don't make one style for the general walking around public which will certainly include blind folks that may need  their money too, and another for the driver's among us which hopefully don't need braille (which begs the question of why they have it on the sides of roads though). It's a one size fits all kinda deal.

    So there's your, um, rhetorial answer. Or one of 'em at least.

    I LUV those Geiko commercials 2 smiley  That pig is so damn CUTE wink
  • funny.  Before I even got to the bottom part of the post, I was making up answers in my head!  Here we go!


    [quote author=Imagin.ation link=topic=14576.msg135712#msg135712 date=1289068036]

    If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? cuz candy's dandy but sex don't rot your teeth

    Why do hot dogs come ten to a package and hot dog buns only eight? you need two dogs for the beanie wienies

    If you choke a Smurf, what color will he turn? purple

    Can you cry underwater? of course you can!

    Why is it that when we KNOW the batteries in a remote are dead, we push the buttons harder? cuz our mommas done raised her sum idjuts, duh!

    What is the speed of dark? Very very slow, like windows 3.1

    If goose plural is geese, then why isn’t moose plural meese? ecause meece makes you think of mice but is spelled like cheese.

    If superman was so smart why were his underpants on the outside?  So when he flew over the nudist colony, well....you get the picture...

    Why is brassiere singular and panties plural? it's the opposite inverse property- you put two breasts in the brassiere and only one crotch in the panties

    Who decided what order to put the alphabet in?  It's random- I think the can the soup is in decides when you open it.

    Why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor when you can't drink and drive? Because life just isn't fair.

    Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds? It is if you speak phonecian.

    Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes what good's the parachute gonna do in the water?

    Why are cigarettes sold in gas stations when smoking is prohibited there? Tradition. 

    Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime? No, no no...you ARE the silencer.

    Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?  I imagine I may have, maybe.

    If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors? So the clerk can go pee pee/poo poo.

    If a cow laughed, would milk come out her nose? I dunno...ask your wife!

    If you're in a vehicle going the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights? The battery goes dead.

    You know how most packages say Open here. What is the protocol if the package says, Open somewhere else? Like we read and obey all instructions.

    Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM? so the blind guy in the backseat of the taxi can process his ATM transaction.  Again, duh.

    Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways?  Again, the opposite inverse thingy dingy.

    Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio? When they say the call letters you'll lose count of where you are.
  • You know, i have always wondered why theres 10 hot dogs and 8 buns.. i even tried to come up with sensible answers.. and i am embarrassed to say, but yeah.. i do push harder on the remote buttons infact i start pushing all the buttons even the ones i don't use.. "yeah the batteries dead" then i'd tell my daughter to change the TV, she'd say use the remote, i'd say the batteries dead, she'd grab the remote walk right up to the TV remote sensor and push harder on the buttons then confirm the batteries dead change the TV and sit down... i noticed neither one of us wanted to get up and find some batteries but will work the hell out of the dead remote.. WHY?

  • one theory:
    They prefer dozens, or more generally, multiples of three and four, notably four, six, eight, and twelve. These quantities lend themselves to compact packaging--three rows of four, two rows of three, two slabs of two by two (e.g., hamburger buns), and so on. Ten lends itself only to one row of ten or two rows of five, which are seldom compact shapes. Therefore, the baking mind-set--and here's where we start getting into anthropology--is such that you instinctively regard ten as an unwieldy number. When the pioneers of bun baking were trying to figure out how to package their product, they probably figured what the hey, eight makes a squarish package, so that's what we'll go with, without even considering the unique circumstances that made ten more appropriate. The situation has been allowed to continue because the Teeming Millions meekly submit to it. Oscar Mayer says that of the 50,000 or so consumer letters they get each year, only 10 or 15 complain about the hot dog/bun mismatch.



  • Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

    Why is it that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

    If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?


    My take on the hotdogs is.. when my daughter was an iddy biddy thing i used to cut hers to small pieces and didn't use a bun, maybe they are allowing extra for children? I have noticed some hotdog companys have put 8 dogs but notice they are fatter in size...

    I think for time we only have one hand gesture, thats the point to the wrist and it is recognized and for most there is no other meaning.. for pointing to the crotch theres too many possibilities.. we got an itch, check out my camel toe, you want some, you have some kind of discoloration, close your legs your panties showing, whats that bulge, it doesn't exactly mean when you point to your crotch you need the restroom, infact you might get a crowd around you trying to figure out what it is you need or want by then you done pee'd all over the floor and are doing the mop hand gesture..
  • Omg i love the last one! Did i get a visual of doing the very same thing. Turning down the radio to look for an address or street sign!! Lmaoooo i didn't know everybody else did that too!

    Lips
  • these are fun...but..kinda silly, cuz actually MOST of them HAVE an actual answer

  • I actually cared when jimmy cracked corn, but why everyone else didn't?
