Random Thoughts...or...What's on Your Mind?

Why do they call the little candy bars "fun sizes". Wouldn't it be more fun to eat a big one? :shrug:

I don't know if they do that in other countries but here in France, when they want to raise the price of a bag of munchies, they reduce the size of the bag at the same time.
 
They rely on their vampire friends? Thinking of Laszlo and Nadja: Laszlo darling you have blood clots in your beard. You'll scare the sheep.
Another impoderable: Why do ghosts wear ghost clothes? Casper doesn't though. And he's for kids! What's up with that?
Love WWDITS!

My criteria for my outfit used to be "Is this the outfit in which I'd like to meet Dr Who and run off to explore all of time and space?"

Now it's "Do I want to die in this outfit?" lol

Why do ghosts wear sheets? Maybe they can't find a good tailor in the afterlife.:guffaw:

my Grandgrandma always carefully examined everythink she took to the hospital.

reasons: in case of her death (and her things been stolen subsequently) it was unbearable that something could be regarded as unworty (to steal) and be left behind.

according to the literature the haunted normally die guiltfully in bed - the sheeds are simply nighties

Your nana sounds pretty smart!
 
The sheets have been subject in a relatively recent episode of QI. Apparently, in olden times, most people were not buried in a coffin, but simply wrapped in a white sheet.

Mostly the poor that were thrown in mass graves, the sheets were there to avoid the spectacle of naked bodies. People were always more shocked by nakedness than by misery and death. The bodies were then covered with a layer of quicklime to limit the spreading of diseases.
 
For a few short minutes on January 20, 2017 Mike Pence was Barack Obama's Vice President. Think about that.
