Things I do not get

Have you ever had the privilege of just sitting there and just scratching your head and going - I just do not get this! For example, BBC reported a story recently (LINK) and I still cannot fathom how a 45 year old grandpa on the ground blind a helicopter pilot flying in the sky, let alone what the old man is doing playing with laser pens!

I thought about this and looked for people who share the same scratch the head feelings every now and then... I thought I would be alone - but boy I was wrong.

I found a genius for whom 13 things did not make sense (LINK). But then he goes on and on about things like the placebo effect and the pioneer anomaly and things that definitely did not make sense to me. Then there is this guy who cannot get why one of his dinner guest is wearing a combover to hide his grey hairs (LINK). Silly I know, I too do not get it.

Then there is also voices of unreason to whom few facts of human society do not make sense (LINK). Well why do people laugh and get angry when someone farts? Anyone?

But this one takes the cake... or should I say banana? Hmm.. watch and let me know:



Now that surely does not make sense!
