and why do men have nipples?

For example. Why is the mouse for the computer called a "mouse"??

Simply because it physically resembles a mouse. Before wireless mouses became popular, the cord resembled the tail.

And that's the other fun thing. Apparently the plural of the vermin is mice, but the plural of the device used with your computer is mouses. Firefox doesn't even underline it as a typo.

Flammable = will burn
INflammable = will burn

Jay: if a label says "highly inflammable", DON'T use to put out a fire...

I believe that all fetuses (?) are female until a certain point. I suppose the nipples have already been formed before the fetus begins it's transformation to male.

Taken from wiki:

"Inflammable can be misinterpreted as an antonym of flammable and so taken to have the opposite meaning to that intended. Where such confusion might arise, especially where this may be a safety hazard, it is preferable to use a synonym."


It's a synonym, wow I guess you have to look for "flame retardant" on the label.

[jonesthecurl]

Well, I'm glad you know now. That is one seriously useful piece of information...

[Matroshka]

You gotta wonder why that word started to get used. Or maybe inflammable was the original word and it was shortened to flammable?

hehe, dont you know reatine is like pretty dangerous, theres no definite proof because its a new thing but supposed to make your muscles crack up (deteriorate) at a much younger age!


So protein of course! that never hurt anyone, unless you take it too young and end up with a huge muscely body and a tiny head! hehe

Well I think creatine is more unnatural way to build muscle it stimulates the muscles to grow faster and therefore deteriate faster.
So your better off going with the batural protein
