The English language is weird, and I've spent most of my life trying to figure it out! 

1. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented?
2. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes?
3. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?
4. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?
5. If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?
6. Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
7. When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?
8. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a racing car not called a racist?
9. Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?
10. Why do overlook and oversee mean opposite things?
11. Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one?
12. "I am" is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language. Could it be that "I do" is the longest sentence?
13. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, dog trainers debarked, and dry cleaners depressed?
14. What hair colour do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?
15. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do, write to them? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the postmen can look for them while they deliver the mail?
16. You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive.
17. No one ever says, "It's only a game" when their team is winning.
18. Ever wonder about those people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backwards: NAIVE
19. Isn't making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?
20. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea, does that mean that fifth one ENJOYS it?

I couldn't afford an ancestry DNA kit so I announced that I had won the lottery and I found out who my relatives are.

Thanks to both of you. I'll guess I'll keep the older apps. Just in case.
I did try to read XAir's Tidbit link, but had to stop. Far too much info for me to understand a simple request. :Thinking:
Do I really need to take an electrical course to learn how to turn a light switch on?  :D

Thanks for your help, Kriss and Raven!

Looking at the messages I made with baAD links, I see that my Typinator abbreviation is wrong. The new versions of the app must have made some changes.

The Typinator abbreviation was:
Code: [Select]
[b][url = "{clip}"]LINK_TEXT[/url][/b]
However, looking at the text with those bad links, they have http:// added!
So the inserted text becomes:
Code: [Select]
[b][url="http://"https://tidbits"]LINK_TEXT[/url][/b]Obviously "http://"https://..." makes the link unusable.

Edited Typinator abbreviation:
Code: [Select]
[b][color=purple][url={clip}]LINK_TEXT[/url][/color][/b]
I think this works. :Thinking: :doh: :clap:
The elusive TB link!

I normally type the post with the proposed link text included. I then move the cursor to the beginning of that link text and type the Typinator abbreviation, a period and tsk. Four key presses and two copies and pastes.
