Godfrey Daniel, Sweet Mother of Pearl, why the frik-frackin hell do I keep posting stupid questions on this thread?????????????????????????

 

Could it be because you think they're stupid enough to qualify?

This may be a stupid question, but i think its more of a stupid system.

 

How come someone will not be executed because they are sick? If you are going to kill someone why does it matter if they are in ill-health?

 

Crazy countires that kill people...:naughty:

Why does the bed where the lethal injection is to be given have a comfortable pillow? (Saw a pic in New Scientist)

what are the odds that coca-cola was once formulated (however briefly or minute in amount)in the various soups, pools, and oceans on our planet before it was actually invented?

What are the odds it wasn't?

Apparently, yawning is indeed contagious. In a recent article, it was described that observing somebody else in your company yawn, triggers a yawn in yourself as a mechanism to consolidate and solidify social hegemony. Interesting, but not the gist of my dumb question.

 

What I want to know, does yawning dogs trigger yawning amongst humans in their company, that form part of their social group, and vice versa? Does your yawning trigger a yawn in your dog?

 

Dogs are without doubt Man's Best Friend, because our social ordering is compatible. Humans yawn, dogs yawn. I suppose it'll make sense if our social co-operation included inter-species contagious yawning as a social strengthening tool, too...
