Why is Orange Jam called Marmelade ?

Why is there only one monopolies commission?


I don't need the answers but would love to hear more pointless irrelevant questions.

any one know any better ones? (shouldn't be too taxing)!

    Why is it that men can breast feed? blogs.static.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/20193.html
    BTW that answers the nipple question.
    1. glenslife
      just read that post! now that is scary
    2. Shiley
      Men can get breast cancer too. I'm a little more scared of the breast cancer thing from a female perspective.
    3. weblogian
      Shiley you are wrong, men only get breast Cancel.
    4. Shiley
      Nope. When I was pregnant I read things in a lot of parenting magazines. There are meds you guys can take to lactate. I asked my mom because she went to school to be an RN and she said men can breast feed. To her knowledge though it was induced through medication.

      I think it's hilarious to be honest. Messes with a man's sensibilities I would suppose. That's why it gives me a giggle.
    5. Agit8r
      Damn! I am so getting those meds!

      No more paying $3.25 for a gallon of milk at the store!

      wait... how much do the meds cost?
    6. Shiley
      Ummm... No clue. Don't even know what they're called.

      I'm disgusted by the idea of my baby coughing up hairballs

    Why celebs talk and promote underwear when they don't use?
    1. glenslife
      Apparently Susan Boyle is the new Calvin Klein girl or am I mis-informed on that one?
    2. Agit8r
      boxers or briefs?

    Men have nipples for my pinching pleasure. Yes, I have a (male) nipple fetish.

    (I'm kidding, so don't go emailing me your nips in hopes of turning me on )
    1. dbowles1017
      Too late.
    2. MissSuzie
      Ooooh. Really?
    3. Agit8r
      how bout full on man-boobs?
    4. dbowles1017
      Yup. I already took the picture and am getting ready to send it. It's a process. I can't stop it now.
    5. MissSuzie
      @Agit8r: I said nipples, not man-boobs. If I want to pinch boobs, I'd pinch my own.

      @db: That's a pity.
    6. Agit8r
      lol, just asking
    7. MissSuzie
      I know.
    8. dcarroll
      You don't bite them, do you?
    9. MissSuzie
      Wouldn't you like to know?
    10. dcarroll
      That's why I asked.
      Pinching is one thing, biting? hmm that's something else. You might be mean.
    11. MissSuzie
      I'm only mean if you p!ss me off. You should know that by now.
  4. jeremyjanson
    It's a celebration of our supreme fertillity.
    1. siralmo
      the optimum male ^^
    2. jeremyjanson
      which of course is me!
  5. nothingprofound
    Easy! So they can wear nipple rings.
    1. Floormodel
      yeah, now there's a good look.... a large man with nipple rings...
    2. nothingprofound
      I've never been able to find any other use for them!!!
    3. dbowles1017
      What if you're not large?
    4. Floormodel
      unless we can use them to tie the leash to you to keep you with us in a store .... not necessary
    5. dbowles1017
      Hmm, that could be arranged floormodel. Just replace store with some where else
  6. bettieblogger
    the reason men have nipples is because all embryo's start off as female .. it's an X chromosome thang
  7. selfstudy
    hahahaha funny question,

    maybe to make us more attractive..
  8. morgantj
    Swiss cheese, what happens to the holes when the cheese is gone?
    1. glenslife
      Nice one! I think the holes get recycled and put into polo mints don't they?
    2. JonnyDunMind
      Haha, I used to live near the royal mint, where they make UK money.

      And when I was younger, I was told by a teacher, 'the royal mint, not a polo mint...'

      A good few years later, I'd gotten mixed up, and thought it was the royal polo XD
  9. Halconite
    Maybe because man was originally designed to give birth and to breast feed but he's defective. And that is how (or why)woman came into the picture. Just a wild, wild guess...
  10. celticmusicfan
    I buy the x chromosome explanation.

    If you lock a table in a dark room, with concrete walls and no windows. Bolt shut the door and have no way of looking in, does the table still exist?

    If a tree falls in the woods, but no one is there to hear it, does it still make a sound?

    o.O
    1. glenslife
      If we locked all the philosophers of the world into a room and threw away the key - would I still think?
    2. freshtunesfinland
      If all the philosophers were locked in a dark room with no key, would anyone care?

      Actually, there's an answer for that.
  12. Selbon
    Haha, mammals have nipples be it male or female. And yes men are mammals.


    About why men have nipples? Because God is fair....
    1. flamingpoodle
      Nu uh. I've never had period pain. I think god is one of the guys.

      Then again, when meteorites hit planets, I begin to think god drives like a girl.
  13. valentinegore
    Because humans are all originally female.(sorta)
    all fetuses start out as female, and that is why you can't tell the sex of a baby before so many weeks. It's a left over of that.
    1. glenslife
      I'm pretty sure that's just proporganda put out by the government to make ladies feel better about earning less.

    re: Marmalade question...

    I believe it is "Jam" if the ingredients are closer to the ground (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc)

    I believe it is "Marmalade" if the ingredients are well above the ground (oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, etc)
  15. LolitaV
    2 reasons:
    !so we can take turns sucking on each others.
    !they are radars that tell us when the fruit is ripe for the bite.

    but then again maybe it's for weather related reasons and to look normal naked.
    Not sure, I get confused sometimes.
  16. RudrakshRudranjali
    Its easy for young one to find thier mother...hence god kept them of mens as miniatures..and..bonsai type..
    1. LolitaV
      LOL!! if male nipples looked like bonzai's, i wouldn't be with one.
  17. Rivy
    Why men have nipples? So our chest muscles don't look too freaky as we age and they begin to sag. At least with nipples they look like breasts. Without, they'd look like saggy balloons. Large scrotum balls dangling from our chests.
    1. JonnyDunMind
      Rofl. I'm actually struggling to breathe as I type this.
    2. LolitaV
      thanx very much for making me choke on the children's mac & cheese!!



      ROTFL!
    3. marketborn
      well said.
  18. othellobloke
    Marmalade is called that because it's not jam! It has peel in it - and tastes different to orange jam.
  19. thetravellerreturns
    men have nipples because when our bodies are formed the egg or sperm dosnt know if your going to be a boy or a girl yet. So they are there just in case you turn into a girl.

    Funny thing is so many men turn into a girl about 20 years after this process haha.
  20. chosenclick
    its an indicator that u get turn on and ur ready to have sex.

    Hahahahaha
  21. JonnyDunMind
    Handing coats.

    To keep two polo mints handy
  22. nothingprofound
    The reason men have nipples is so the bedbugs can chew on them at night.
    1. JonnyDunMind
      I'm going to be awake for hours now, wielding a flipflop, viligantly staring at my nipples ready to strike. Thanks nothing profound. Thanks a lot.
    2. nothingprofound
      Johnny-haven't you ever wondered why your nipples look so shriveled in the morning? Bedbugs!
  23. Guzzo
    Where else are they going to put their earings?
  24. CataVorbeste
    To breast feed the young:) and because it would be a waste of energy to not grow them and because men develop sexual organs later

    You can grow a nice pair if you eat estrogen, thetravellerreturns you are right, it is funny to see fat 20 year old male walking with the hand in the air, big boobs and a big bely
  25. melindaville
    Men have nipples so they can look down and feel inadequate each and every day!
    1. JonnyDunMind
      depends how far down they look

      We have the ultimate picnic/ camping tool
    2. glenslife
      I don't need nipples to make me feel inadequate, I have a wife tells me that I am.
