why? oh! why?

[kazminx]

who's idea was it to put an 's' in the word 'lisp'? pretty cruel....also, if people evolved from apes, why are there still apes????....you can tell im bored???

[scuzzball]

Great apes and homo sapiens (people) have a common ancestor. At some point in the distant past they were the same species. They then branched, with apes and humans evolving on separate lines.
No idea about the 's' in 'lisp'.

[lilmonkey]

First question - because we live in a cruel cruel world, and someone thought it would befunny.
Second question - people didn't evolve from apes, humans and apes evolved from a common ancestor.

argh scuzzball, beat me to it!

[froggo]

all i can say kaz is, you must be bl00dy bored,
not jus bored
perhaps it was to show that you have a lisp by having to say the word ie;
ive got a lifpfpfpfpzzp then people automaticly know ?

[johnlambert]

The same reason that dyslexia is so hard to spell

[kazminx]

well you'd know lilmonkey lol!

[johnlambert]

And while im on the subject,
1) why do people say that there has been a bad accident, does that mean that there are good accidents?
2) People involved in these bad accidents always get "rushed to hospital", has anyone ever been driven carefully and slowly to hospital?
3) Why do people always rotate when they reply? ie "she turned around and said.........so I turned around and said................" does it make you dizzy all this spinning around?
4) everyone knows the speed of light, but, what's the speed of darkness?

5) have I spent too much time at work? do I need a rest?

Same person who put three Ts in stutter.

[Litchick]

To be fair, johnlambert, some minor accidents such as a fender bender where no one gets hurt are still accidents. So, while it's still not "good" to have one, it's not really a "bad" accident. :)

[johnlambert]

Granted, but what about the rest of the posed Q's
I need to know!!!!!!!!

[PinkFizz]

LMAO @ johnlambert!!

[Pippa68]

LOL John ~ when I was a teenager my mum used to ask if any of my friends got dizzy!

1)someone drops a tenner 'by accident' - very good for me if i find it, no?

trip and fall and land on a handome man/woman - perhaps the start of something good? (my cousin fell on paul well once - totally by accident - she was happier that a pig in shyt as she had been following him round a market, lost him and in a fluster fell - and there he was!)

i once stubbed my toe when l was leaving the house - i went back inside to put a plaster on it - when i left the house 5 mins later i bumped into an old friend - who i'd have missed had i not stubbed my toe

its called serendipity

2) lots of people go to hospital in ambulances in a normal driving manner - if i broke my arm or leg, there would be no need to tear-arse through the streets would there?
some people go home and phone a taxi! they are still off to the hospital.

'rushed' implies life or death.


3)you have been watching too much paul merton.

4) dunno i am scared of the dark so i close my eyes so i don't have to look at it.

5)yep

;o)

you cant have the speed of darkness as it starts in darkness and then you use that to measure the speed of light
