If you tie a bit of buttered toast to a cats back and drop it, which way up does it land?
it never lands - its just hovers in mid air spinning
Mainly my dreams. Last night I dreamt I was a heroin addict, then I dreamt I was Van Morrison trying to seduce Janet Planet at Stanford University. Weird.

Given that trains are always so crowded, why do they have tables between the seats? Rows of seats, airline style, would be so much more efficient.

Not so much confirmation bias, but frequency illusion, otherwise known as the Baader-Meinhof Effect
Why did Bungle jump about in the nude during the day but put pyjamas on to go to bed?
When I'm reading a book I often come across a relatively obscure word and at the same instant I'm reading the word someone on the radio will say that same word. This happens to me quite frequently.

Why do farmers always stick their gates in the muddiest bit of the field?
Boris Johnson? Really?
Why isn’t inflammable the opposite of flammable? And how many accidental fires has that caused?
Because in this case, in- isn't a negation, it's an intensifier. Wood is flammable, petrol is inflammable.
All inflammable things are flammable but not all flammable things are inflammable.
The opposite of flammable is non-flammable.
I'm an agnostic, dyslexic insomniac.
I lye awake at night wondering if there really is a Dog.

If I keep playing with it, will it fall off like my Mam said?
Following on from the Millennium Falcon light speed conundrum, what is the reference frame for light speed?
I mean, if the whole universe is constantly expanding, everything is already moving pretty quickly, so you can't just assume that where you are is static. Do you have to measure light speed against the estimated origin of everything? If so, where is that?
If you’re in the Millennium Falcon traveling at the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the lights?
This is exactly the kind of thing Einstein wondered about whilst being bored as a patent clerk. Except he went on to actually work out what things really would look like and in the process discovered why you can't travel at the speed of light. This created a whole new branch of physics. Not satisfied with that, he created a few more just to show off.
Do you have to measure light speed against the estimated origin of everything?
No. Think dots on a balloon.

Because in this case, in- isn’t a negation, it’s an intensifier. Wood is flammable, petrol is inflammable.
So is an intensifier much stronger than a tensifier? And is that twice as much as a fiveifier?
So mirrors reverse things! I sit in the car, look in the mirror and the driver in the car behind is the same side as me but his numberplate is reversed yet the driver in front is also the same side but his numberplate reads right.
And when I lay down in front of a mirror my feet don't face my head...
