If you take an Oriental person and spin him around
several times, does he become disoriented?

Probably not, seeing as disoriented isn't a real word. He might become disorientated though.

If people from Poland are called Poles, why
aren't people from Holland called Holes?

Because there is no absolute pattern or relationship between a country's name and the word used to describe its people.

If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

The 'love is blind' expression generally is used to mean that love can cloud judgement, and is not to be taken literally, or to mean that people who are in love are blind. Lingerie is so popular because it shows off girl's rude bits.

When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?

Cheese can't speak.

Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one?

Language is full of exceptions, and the pronunciation of numbers like 11 is just one example.

Do Lipton Tea employees take coffee breaks?

You'd have to presume that at least some of them do.

I thought about how mothers feed their babies
with tiny little spoons and forks so I wondered
what do Chinese mothers use? Toothpicks?

Probably not, as they'd be too small to function as proper chopsticks.

If it's true that we are here to help others,
then what exactly are the others here for?

If it were true (and who's to say either way!), they'd presumably here to help us.

Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would
be if it didn't zigzag?

Lightning doesn't neccessarily zig-zag, and the speed lost, if any, is insignificant.

Do people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little
bottles of Evian water know that spelling it backwards
is Naive?

It's doubtful that every consumer of Evian knows that, but I'm sure there are some who do.

If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea...Does
that mean the fifth one enjoys it?

No, it means that one fifth do no suffer from diarrhea.

Actually disoriented IS a word:

Dictionary.com:


disoriented

adj 1: having lost your bearings; confused as to time or place or personal identity; "I frequently find myself disoriented when I come up out of the subway"; "the anesthetic left her completely disoriented" [syn: confused, lost] 2: socially disoriented; "anomic loners musing over their fate"; "we live in an age of rootless alienated people" [syn: alienated, anomic]


Dictionary.com:

No entry found for disorientated.
Did you mean disorientate?

This knowledge comes from the fact I used to think it was disorientated too. Weird huh?

Dont be at yourself

Shit.

Lorddrakul

Well bugger me, I interpretated that the wrong way.

Dont be at yourself

False alarm people, the whole disoriented vs disorientated thing hinges on US English vs Standard English. And since we're not tobacco-chewing, sister-marrying, redneck hillbillies, I'm still right.

Lorddrakul

Irregardless, he may have a point.
