I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

AccessoriesBe they I-Pods, mobile phones, earrings, handbags or most of all, watches. I don't get what accessories do for people. Clothes make people look good, phones do not. Never have I found any of the above items to make their owner look better than they would without them. Obviously some people do see this but I just don't get it. It puzzles me, especially when they are so expensive.
I also don't get whether religious people really believe in God. Sometimes when I'm talking to a religious person about why they believe I get the impression that what they're trying to say is "We don't know if it's true really but it makes your life better to believe so why not?". But I'm not sure.
I don't get it when you have a phone-in competition on TV and the contestants have to guess, say, how many pickled eggs there are in a jar. If there are 2 contestants and the first says 10 then the second will always say something like 30. Why? If they think it's more thay should just say 11! Fools.
Cars in general and Formula 1 in particular. I suspect there was a special class at school where everyone learnt about cars and stuff that I just missed. It always puzzled me when I was younger how people who had never driven in their lives would have an opinion on the new Mazda ZX-Phallus or whatever.
Michael Jackson. everyone knows he's a fruitcake, that's not what I don't get. What I don't get is why so many people with good taste in music (similar to mine) insist that he is the King of Pop. His music is poo! A few cool songs maybe, but none as good as Toxic by Britney Spears. Maybe she will be similarly idolised by morons in the years to come.
Why do people hate the beautiful south? Maybe not the coolest group around, but I don't know what they did to deserve such venomous dislike from so many people.
As someone said earlier: My Hero. ???
Why oh why, in the name of all that is good an pure, is it on its FIFTH series?
Girls and chocolate, sweet stuff in general. Just don't see the attraction.
Edit: shit, sorry that's quite long isn't it? Sorry, won't happen again.
