OK, time for a new IB thread.
Post a question, someone answers and posts new question.
So I will start with.
Why do women have to throw stroppies?, as in it is compulsory. They have to do it, discussion is not a valid alternative. Only a full 110db rant will do, followed by at least 2 doors smashed through their frames etc.

And as illustrated by not asking a question, never truly listen and always want to have the last word.
Q: "Why does the sun go on shining?"
Mr Wilky you should know by now that asking any question defining a womans irrational thought process would evoke an answer like above.
Guess that's this thread dead now :D

No, no. We just pretend it bothers us so we can stand back and let you do all the work while making you think its getting to us. That way the absurdity that is the female mind feels satisfied and we get to laze about a bit.
Why do the brits call 'jelly babises' jelly babies but the yanks call them jelly beans?
its a well known fact that yanks are thick but in fairness we call em babies only when they are baby shaped, we still call the bean shaped one beans.

Because women aren't, and we can do things quicker ourselves. and we can multitask unlike blokes...
So why are we having a battle of the sexes??

Becuase the sun produces almost as much fuel as it burns. No gas is stored it just keeps burning and producing almost infinately:D
oh dear god, i can't let this one go unnoticed...:p
the sun does not produce fuel, it consumes it, it burns hydrogen at a rate of ~5 million tons every second, converting hydrogen into helium by fusion
the reason the sun doesn't explode out into space is because the outward force of the massive nuclear fusion reaction is about equal to the force of gravity trying to squeeze all those trillions of trillions of tons of gas back together.
as the sun converts hydrogen into helium, the helium will form a core, adding more helium to it as the sun uses up all the hydrogen until eventually the pressure due to gravity is enough to start helium fusion, converting the helium to heavier elements. the increased rate of fusion will cause the sun to swell until it is about the size of earth's orbit
when helium fusion runs out of fuel there will be nothing to support the sun and the gasses that formed the outer parts will drift to form a planetary nebula or similar. the now inert core will be left, barren and cold, having vaporised the first four planets, leaving the solar system alone in the cold dark vacuum of space
so, to answer the original question:
Q: "Why does the sun go on shining?"
the apparently infinite life of the sun is an illusion, due to the timescales of solar evolution...

Q: Why are flies so good at avoiding swats?
A. Flies see everythnig in slow motion, well to us it would be slow motion. But to a fly its normal speed. So thats why if you want to catch a fly its best if you move slow, then they won't notice, as to them its taken about tens times longer for you to move.
Same as if you look at a snail, it moves so slow you don't notice it moving at all, this trick works great for flies.

Q: Why are flies so good at avoiding swats?
A. uhh uhh, i knew this one. It's because they can sense the air movement as the swat comes down, and know from what direction the swat is coming.... so they actually launch in the opposit direction to avoid it. Pretty cool huh.....I also read that they can even launch backwards... and be airborne the moment they rub their wings. Wikipedia also says: Flies have a very highly-evolved evasion reaction which helps to ensure their survival. It is possible to confuse a fly's evasion system by swatting it with two objects simultaneously from different directions. The holes in a fly swatter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_swatter)minimize the air current that warns the fly as being hit, whilst reducing air resistance and increasing speed of the swat.
