When I was making breakfast for my husband I went to pull his bagel out of the toaster oven with my bare hands and of course it was hot so I dropped it.
As I touched the bagel and quickly pulled my hand away I yelped “Hot!”
Do you ever wonder why we yell out what’s happening when we’re shocked when it would be obvious to anyone watching?
Everyone does it.
If someone were to touch you and their hand was freezing cold you’d probably yell out “cold, brrrr!” Right?
But why?
I think it’s weird … normal because we all do it occasionally … but strange too.
Another thing that gets me is when people bump into something and they say sorry. They didn’t bump into a person … no, they bumped into a chair, or a wall and they still say sorry. I don’t know, maybe that’s a Canadian thing … but it’s funny as hell!
I’m not saying that I don’t say sorry to walls. I’m pretty sure I do, but why?
What other strange things can you think of that people do for no good reason when it’s obvious what happened?
