I bet this one has been mentioned before, but... watching Nascar, or any automobile race. I guess I can see how a few car nuts might be interested, but the relatively wide appeal of watching cars go around in a circle is baffling.

That crash though  :buggedout:

I don't get why they're making airsoft guns so powerful, you could kill something, but you can no longer get one of those spring action guns that shoots those soft mushy rubber pellets....

Okay, so I just found out the toy gun I was thinking of was the old Rayline Zebra II....
So, if airsoft leagues are going to be shooting at each other for fun, why can't you get those soft mushy pellets anymore?

I also figured out that the old Daisy & Crosman .177s, which we knew in our day were quite dangerous, are now being lumped in with airsoft guns, which I "thought" were supposed to be relatively harmless....

That, I tell ya, I just don't get!

The first thing I listed in this thread.  :wink:
f**k NASCAR!
I reckon it would be fun sitting in the stands s**t faced drunk with cars so loud it's like a rock concert-but watching it on TV-dam. I't like watching a dog chasing it's own tail, but not as fun.
Unless, of course, a car crashes!
After f**king with it for so long-after the first crash, I would smoke a cigarette and pass out.

Now watching homegrown cars race in a crash up-derby at the Fair is fantastic! I took my kids to 4 of them!

Ants likely see humans as a form of  natural  disaster.

Why is it, every time I've gone to the hospital for the stomach flu, they want to check me for a heart attack & not the stomach flu?

NASCAR, along with drag racing, is more "imagine yourself in the driver seat" type deal, unlike F1 or Rally.
yeah no.

Every time my parents come snooping, they talk about the parking break on my car like it's the eighth deadly sin, but won't say why it shouldn't be used...

In america it's so they can bill you out the ass for tests you don't need.

Cigarettes.

I mean, you have to really WORK to enjoy those things. Granted, I know some people start on them because people sitting down with a cigarette are less likely to be assigned work duties than someone just sitting down (like in the military or something) but come on, does anyone ever really pick up their first cigarette and go, (sharp inhale), "WHOA!!  This is great!!  I wonder if these come in cherry flavor!!"

Pickled pig's feet. Ugh!
My step Grandfather Bonarski was a big fat slob, who sat at the Thanksgiving table drunk in his underwear slobbering f**king pickled pigs feet in his maw!

Oh Gawd, my father loved those damn things. He'd sit and munch on'em while watching TV in the evenings. The smell of the brine would stink up the living room. I'd ask "how the hell can you eat those things? Don't you know what pigs stand around in all day?" :D

As much as I love bacon, I just can't imagine eating pigs trotters.
