I Never Thought of That!

Sometimes simple logic can be, if not earth-shaking, at least entertaining.  Consider these logicalities. [Thanks to Linda Younts for sending me these.]

  • If you attempt to rob a bank you won’t have any trouble with rent/food bills for the next 10 years, whether or not you are successful.
  • Every time you clean something, you just make something else dirty.
  • The word “swims” upside-down is still “swims.”
  • Intentionally losing a game of rock, paper, scissors is just as hard as trying to win.
  • 100 years ago everyone owned a horse and only the rich had cars.  Today everyone has cars and only the rich own horses.
  • The doctors that told Stephen Hawking he had two years to live in 1953 are probably dead.
  • If you replace “W” with “T” in “What, Where and When” you get the answer to each of them.
  • If you rip a hole in a net, there are actually fewer holes in it than there were before.

Ad that to My Bowl of Super Logic

I USED TO pride myself on my logic.  No more.  Not since yesterday.

You see, I’m one of those people who isn’t fond of football, even the Super Bowl, not even the half-time show.  But I like to watch the commercials–mainly to see how, if I had $5 million, I could fill 30 seconds.  What I did this year was record the game for later viewing (and for skipping through to catch the ads).

Before that, though, I recorded Super Bowl’s Greatest Commercials 2016.  That’s what I watched yesterday.  Sounds logical so far, right?  I thought it was.  Until I realized something: I was zipping through the program’s commercials to watch what?  Commercials!

Sigh……
