WHY don’t they hire HAPPY librarians or post office managers? There should be some sort of happy test that all workers must take, with happy ratings. If you are a nasty, cantankerous old curmudgeon, you shouldn’t get the job. Period.
WHY does my town have flashing yellow traffic lights at 2am in the still-busy commercial district… but run the regular green-yellow-red traffic lights at 2am in empty residential areas? I am baffled why I have to sit and wait for the lights to change on Elm and Park Streets… yet the lights are blinking at WalMart where it’s a dog-eat-dog driving experience!!
WHY will people so readily believe in alien lifeforms, evolution, and Santa Claus, but say they don’t believe in God or in Christ’s resurrection?
WHY do children have so much energy, and not adults?
WHY do rabbits, deer, and insects devour my flowers and vegetables? WHY don’t they eat the stinkin’ weeds?!
WHY do people believe things that are on the HDTV? WHY did people believe Walter Cronkite when he said, “And that’s the way it is.” No, that’s NOT the way it is. WHY was he believed?
WHY is there an “S” in the word “lisp”?
WHY don’t we ever hear father-in-law jokes?

Wow! LOL… I really like your “whysies” and it gave me a much needed chuckle. Thanks.

Hey you are darn right. Now that you mention it, most librarians that I have come across do not have sunny dispositions

WHY #3.) Because you don’t get cool presents on Easter, Monkeys are cool and everybody would secretly love to have one around, and ET was a better flick than Passion of the Christ.
WHY #4.) The government made sugar as crack for kids. It’s effects were thin as you grow older.

The only places that screen people with the happy test are in the south. They have happy people in the library, post office and shockingly, even at the DMV. Anywhere else we’ve lived they seem to take the grumpy test.
Loved the part about easily believing in aliens but not God–so sad, but so true. Also, why can’t kids believe “wet paint” signs without having to test it by touching the paint?
