Some Of Life's Questions

(off the top of my head anyway)

Who decided it was a good look for politicians to attend press conferences with 3-4 nodding sycophants behind them?
Why can’t we make it ‘UnAustralian’ to label someone or something as UnAustralian?
If blackboxes are indestructible, why can’t they make the whole plane out of the same stuff? (apologies to Steven Wright)
Why can’t star footballers and coaches just admit it’s about the money and not about ‘the challenge’?
Why does rugby league bother with scrums?
Why did the ARU seek a 5th Australian Super 15 team when its obvious we don't have a deep enough pool of talent?
Why do AFL goal umpires wear hats for night games?
Why can’t Channel 7 show Friday night AFL on one of its digital channels? Surely it would rate better than Are You Being Served?
What's with footballers and the sleave tattoos?
Does Libya have a Minister for Tourism? If so, what does he/she do?
Why does a “no-fly zone” usually mean there’s more planes in the sky?
How can something be both ‘new’ and ‘improved’?
Where was aioli 10 years ago? Or pesto?
Why does my son decide to do a poo just as I’m rushing to get us out the door to daycare/work?
Why doesn’t my wife just say “can you take out the rubbish” rather than playing mind games with statements like “gee, this bin smells”, etc?
Why is it that as men grow older, they lose hair in some places while gaining hair in others?
How can I be paying more for water when I’ve got a rainwater tank and we just had the wettest summer in nearly 40 years?
Why do we still have water restrictions when we just had the biggest floods in nearly 40 years?
What is the deal with the ‘skunk’ hair look? You know, dyed black with the odd streak of dyed blonde?
How is it that reality TV shows have nothing to do with reality?
How do TV news channels get away with calling it a ‘live’ cross when it obviously isn’t?
Why is it the media only want to focus on bad news and not the good? Is it a reflection of us and what we want to hear about?
Why can’t some people distinguish between ‘opinion’ and ‘fact’ when listening to radio shock jocks?
How on earth can Channel 10 be contemplating giving a show to Andrew Bolt? What will it be called? Australia’s Got Malice? Steve Price Is Right?
Who cares about the Royal Wedding? And if people do, why?
Who was the first person that saw a chicken lay an egg and decided that would be a great thing to eat? Or an oyster? Or a haggis?
Who was the first person to wear a piece of material hanging from their neck? And why has this remained compulsory attire for a job interview or wedding?
and finally…
When the hell will my life be fulfilled by witnessing a Melbourne Demons premiership?
