Why Do People Try to Open Airplane Doors During Flights?

Why do we have eyebrows?

Everyone has wondered this right??

Whats the deal with them? You can't miss mine, mine are huge but other people have thin ones. I can never understand why people wax them off then draw a line were they should be. To me that seems silly because it's a pen, but also just trim the top and bottom. Unless of course you went to a house party and fell asleep. They always only do one eyebrow don't they?! So you have to shave the other one off even if you don't want to. Thats never happened to me, but I did look in the mirror one day in my school day's and picked up a razor, then looked back and the mirror and thought it would be a great idea to shave a bit off in the side, it backfired. The razor was a big one and it took quite a lot off. I didn't know what to do, I tried putting a cap on to go downstairs and have dinner but it didn't cover it up. There was just no way to hide it so I just took it. I didn't even get passed the door without my Mum opening her mouth. I think my comeback was "It's all the rage now"  School wasn't great the next day I remember...

So why do we have eyebrows expect to make a fool of yourself.  We would look silly without them, or with a bit missing. There is actually no real answer but the best one is:

eyebrows help keep moisture out of our eyes when we sweat or walk around in the rain. The arch shape diverts the rain or sweat around to the sides of our face, keeping our eyes relatively dry. The most obvious advantage of this is that it lets us see clearly when we're sweating a lot or out in the rain. Without eyebrows, getting around in these conditions is a little more difficult. The shape of your brow itself diverts a certain amount of moisture, but eyebrows make a significant difference in your ability to see. Diverting 
the sweat away is also good because the salt in sweat irritates the eyes, making them sting a little.


Thats a pretty good answer right?


Why do we still have head bands for sport then? If this news spread I don't think they'd ever make a profit again. Wrist bands on the other hand would probably still do ok. I wonder if its the same company that made them...  

Why do we give grapes to the sick?

Tricky question that. We all do it. I hate hospitals and have only ever been on one for me once (too many "o+n letters there) I don't suppose you go on to a hospital but I'm calling it that now. I sliced my little finger working at Starbucks, I was holding 3 mugs...thats nothing i could hold 10 back in my prime Starbucks days...the middle mug's handle broke shattering the two next to it as they fell to the floor my hand panicked and tried to catch yes catch the falling broken mugs. It was a reflex, i hate noise and i know it was going to make a sound. The mug just went straight through my finger, well it cut both my nerves and tendons and sliced a bit of bone. I was in hospital for 3 days i think. I refused to stay the nights so my girlfriend drove me back and forth, she was brilliant I was living on my own at the time and probably just would have tried to let it heal by it's self if she wasn't around. Still i didn't get any grapes though.
Starbucks ended up giving me money for it so i'm not sure who the real mug is there?

After doing some research (google) i found a yahoo question:

Why do the British bring grapes to people in hospital?

I've watched several British shows and when someone is in hospital or at home sick in bed, when someone comes to visit, like a friend or a family member, they always bring a bag of white grapes.

Don't get me wrong - I think it's a nice idea - after all you can't eat flower arrangements (which is what we bring to people in hospital here- that or stupid balloon arrangements that say "get well soon").

But is there a health reason behind it? Do white grapes have some healing qualities. Or is it something traditional? Or is it because hospital food is crap no matter where in the world you are?

The reason I was wondering is because it sounds like a nice, very thoughtful idea, and I'd like to start doing that, but in case anyone asks, "Why Grapes?" I'd like not to give: "Because they do it all the time on EastEnders" as my answer.

Just wondering why people always bring grapes to people in hospital.

Thanks!

Firstly i'd like to ad. Im not the only one asking this question. Secondly why did they say British? It sound like we are a mental bunch of people that like doing it because thats the way we are. Where is the question person from? Don't people in other places give out grapes at hospitals? Are they slightly offended we bring grapes to people? 

Anyway the answer is:

Grapes are the easiest fruit to eat.

They don't involve peeling or slicing and they are not messy so therefore take up less energy!

Two points. An apple is easier as you don't have to keep reaching for another bite. Second I don't think taking up less energy is a good thing. Your laying in a bed. You can't to anything less active. your laying down... You'll need exercise and munching is a good way to do it. Well jogging is better. Have a chewit or two.

One of the other answers were:

I don't know if thats the real reason, but that's what i think anyway!... although 'because they do it all the time on EastEnders' is a decent reason! lol

UK

Why did they put UK at the end? Eastenders is a soap based in the Eastend of LONDON of the UK. 

It's also shite
