Things I Don't Get

I don't get commercials. Especially the one for Cialis that shows a man and a woman in separate bathtubs. What the heck does that have to do with having sex? I mean, maybe if they were in the same bathtub, but........

I don't get the fashion trend for young men to wear their pants with the crotch hanging down around their ankles. They have to hold them up all the time just to walk. I hope they are never in a burning building...they couldn't run!

I don't get the Weather Channel. Millions...maybe billions in technology and equipment, and they still don't get the weather right more than half the time.

I don't get scissors that are either right-handed or left-handed. Wouldn't it be more efficient if they just made a pair that were ambidextrous-handed?

I don't get how so many mediocre writers have so many published books!

And, among many other things, I don't get how people can't spell! I mean, when I think of a word, the image of the word and how it's spelled just pops into my head. Why can't everyone do that?
