Recreation unanswered question...

Why do you park in driveways and drive in parkways????

One of lifes questions... well... what do you think?

 

That is one of the dumdest questions but i used to wonder that but then I took it fr grated as one of the ways the world is.

 

In a nutshell, because the English language was created exclusively by crack fiends. There's more complicated reasons involving linguistic evolution, language groups, idioms and the like, but just stick with the crackhead logic.

 

becuase the english language is sooooo stupid that they make mestakes like that....ok here is another question for you..... Why does the sun lighten our hair, but darken our skin!?

well my family parks their cars in the Garage. But yes that is somthing to think about and there are lots of other things like that too.

But couldnt you just question any word and ask why it is that way?

For enstince, Door why is it called a door? Then people say, from the latin word. . . .bla bla bla. . . but if you trace the word back far enough it was probably just made up by someone. so there really is no meaning for any word. After making up a language, you have so many rules and such you run out of options to shoose from. It just depends how you look at it. A language is such a complex thing that there may be mistakes in it but no one can change them becuase thats the way it has been for years. Like why does the letter C have the same sounds as K and S. Why not eliminate C? Or how some spellings of words may not look the way they sound.. . . . .. :dizzy2: i am getting dizzy so i will stop now. . . . But do you get what i mean?
