Questions too weird to normally ask

49 replies

CoquetteRegret · 18/08/2018 21:30

Does anyone else ever have questions pop into their head they would never usually ask someone through fear of looking like a weirdo? I do, all the bloody time.

If you fart in the shower after having washed your bum, do you wash it again? I always do because.. poo particles. Anyone else do the same?

Feel free to ask your own questions, I'll see if I can answer them.

a fart can be regarded as "aerosolized poop," which means that microscopic fragments and droplets of poop are actually distributed throughout the gaseous matrix of the fart. When delivered from the anus with some force, the components of the fart can penetrate one's clothing and these tiny particles can be trapped in the fibres of the cloth.

Poo particles is destined to become a classic MN saying.

How does a police officer handcuff/restrain a one armed person?

MsHomeSlice · 19/08/2018 10:43

ooh yes, don't fart in the shower and then bend over to wash your feet....I won't make that mistake again.

Meatloaf says ‘he won’t do that’

What is it? I can’t really ask that anywhere else.

BeautyQueenFromMars · 19/08/2018 11:34

@3luckystars

He won't be 'screwing around'.
She sings 'sooner or later you'll be screwing around'. And he replies 'No I won't do that'.

I got really happy as I knew the answer to the Meatloaf question but BeautyQueen already answered so I'll now never get to show my vast knowledge. How disappointing.

@3luckystars In Spiceworld the Movie, Meatloaf appears as their tour bus driver, and he applies this line to not fixing the Spice Girls' toilets on the bus. Very cheesy, but then so is the whole movie (I loved it as a teenager though).

What's the right answer to "can you see anything?", when you're blindfolded and about to pin the tail on the donkey? I remember hesitating over my answer as a child. I couldn't see the donkey, but I could see some purple coming through the scarf which was over my eyes.

FuzzyCustard · 19/08/2018 13:57

Surely Meatloaf is declining to go on a diet.

Is it normal for your tongue to be too wide to fit neatly inside your teeth? I have to sort of tense mine up a bit - if I let it go floppy then it sticks out between my upper and lower teeth. I've never really thought about it until I bit it quite painfully in my sleep and now I want to know if everyone has the same.

A dentist once told me that I have an unusually small jaw .. i don't think I have a freakishly large dog tongue, although it's possible.

Does everyone else close their eyes during sex, or just me and DH? Blush

He’s lovely, and I love looking at him, but I just tend to close my eyes once we get going. Even with the lights off, I’ll close my eyes.

I’ve looked a few times and his eyes are closed too.

@KeithLeMonde my tongue has imprints of my teeth down the sides. Not sure if I have a wide tongue or if that's normal.

My tongue fits!

I do get teethmarks down the side if I am dehydrated or ill though.

luckiestgirl · 19/08/2018 15:02

My tongue is too small to come between my teeth. And I have sex with my eyes open.

Can anybody eat a ( insert large well known bugger chain ) bugger without it ending up a squished mess by half way through

Vitalogy · 19/08/2018 16:17

Karmin You're the MN fart expert for sure.

Does everyone else close their eyes during sex, or just me and DH? You're cutting off one of your senses to intensify the others. That's my theory anyway.

Can anybody eat a ( insert large well known bugger chain ) bugger without it ending up a squished mess by half way through I'm not sure where to go with that typo Smile

Vitalogy · 19/08/2018 16:19

KeithLeMonde I've just tested it, mine does the same.

@Angie169 love a good bugger myself. In terms of burgers however, I always used to think my friend was bloody odd for cutting her burgers in half until I tried it and it helped avoid a lot of the mess!

Another question! Does anyone wake up really phlegmy in the morning? I always have to go and spit first thing as I can't stand the thought of swallowing it.

Those chin hairs that just magically appear overnight already about an inch long, if you dont pluck them would they grow and grow like head hair or just reach a certain length then fall out like eyebrow hair?

Vitalogy · 19/08/2018 16:35

CoquetteRegret I think it's just a build up of fluid from the hours of being asleep lying flat. I don't think it's unusual anyway. Smokers seem to need a good old cough up in the mornings.

Judging by the state of my Mothers chin I'd say they just keeep on growing
