Only in America ...do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
Only in America .....do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
Only in America .....do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
Only in America .....do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Only in America ......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
Only in America ......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
EVER WONDER....
Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?
Why can't women put on mascara with their mouth closed?
Why don't you ever see the headline 'Psychic Wins Lottery'?
Why is 'abbreviated' such a long word?
Why is it that doctors call what they do 'practice'?
Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?
Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?
Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?
You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?!
Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?
Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together
If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?
If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport, the terminal?

Good questions. At the Jewel supermarket, I usually see hot dogs in packages of 6, and I see hot dog buns in packages of 8 or 4.

"Only in America .....do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet Coke."
There's some really good one in that mix! 😀 😀 😀 I never understood why this "diet pop / soda thing" was such big deal. I'm guilty as charged, but imagine just how MANY more calories I'd ingest if I drank regular pop? IDK, I see the irony, but who cares? 🙄 🙄
