just don't get it…

August 26, 2011 By Africa

Lets just say I am an easily confused individual……I can get A’s in most every class I’ve ever taken (since high school) but perhaps we should say I’m a little more book smart a little less street smart, at times!!
This provides great entertainment for my friends and leaves me with confusion wrinkles, but alas it is what it is……here’s a list of things I don’t necessarily ‘get’ or that I’ve recently ‘discovered’…..

  1. why people, who aren’t handicapped, use the handicapped button to open doors…..what did they do before these buttons existed?
  2. the urban dictionary app is a great companion of mine.
  3. obesity……I just don’t get it, I mean I get it, but I just don’t get it??
  4. how did people survive prior to the information age?
  5. i cannot eat peanuts in the shell and drive at the same time.
  6. i do not understand how it takes over 6 years to process paper work?
  7. how does WiFi internet work, I don’t get it, but I’m OK with this so long as it works!
  8. i can be a really mean person when ‘pushed’, but on the flip side of that will do ANYTHING for my friends and family!!!
  9. some things in life I’ll NEVER ‘get’….but I’m totally ok with, like #7……some things I take at face value and just go with it!!
  10. why people play games with other people…. especially when you involve emotions, do they get a kick out of it?
  11. why, even when I’m exhausted I am able to stay awake for hours….how do you turn off your brain?
  12. i’ve discovered that some people will forever ‘annoy’ me……for the most part I am NOT a people person!!
  13. i don’t get why people cannot admit their faults……do they really think they’re perfect?
  14. i don’t get how some people sit still and do one thing for hours??  

This list is NOT exhaustive, but I gotta get going now, I’ll likely post an update when I get confused by a bunch of new stuff LOL!!  Just wanted to provide some of the confusions I face daily…..they even make me laugh, what else can I do??
