I don't get the abused woman mentality. He hits you. He screams at you day in and day out. So why are you taking it? And why the hell do you attack anyone who tries to help?
I know some incredibly intelligent women who have fallen into this trap. I've had it explained to me a million times by people who have broken free of the hold, but it just makes it sound more ridiculously confusing.
You attack the people who try to help you because you think he'll see it and stop abusing you. What?! That makes no sense at all!
You stay because you think he needs your help. He clearly doesn't deserve your help! Stop being stupid and get out of there!
You stay because he claims it's all your fault. Excuse me!? That not only makes no sense, but it's stupid as well! HE'S the one hitting YOU! What the hell is wrong with you!?

I don't get the people who get themselves in deep because they fell in with the group. I've actualy been commended on being strong enough to be an individual! It had nothing to do with strength, I just found it impossible to be the same as everyone else. I was actualy trying really hard to fit in! How is it I'm the only one who stood out DESPITE trying my best to conform? Is there something wrong with me, or is there something wrong with everyone else?

I don't get why I always become the bloody friend. Every time I like someone and attempt to get close to them, I end up being their friend. I mean, Jesus, it would be a little less confusing if you stopped saying certain things I do are "cute"! You're sending mixed messages! Why would you keep saying things that could only be mistaken as a hint that you like me, and then claim you think of me as a brother? It's bloody weird!
It might have something to do with my weight, I'm not exactly petite. I always here things like "lots of girls like cuddly guys!" or "you're a nice guy, a girl would be lucky to have you", but I know it's bullshit because everytime someone says something like that, I respond "really? Do/would you? Does/would anyone you know?", and it's always answered in the negative.

Lastly, I don't get people. You're weird and violent, and you keep doing shit that doesn't make any sense. Like discrimination. Everyone is clearly human, despite having different genitalia, different coloured skin or being born in a different country. Why do you feel you have to hate people who don't look like you?
And then there's war. It's a disagreement between two people who think they're better than you because they have more money. Why do you fight and get killed for them? Is it because they claim you'll be doing it for your country? Why would you believe that?

Yeah, I don't get a lot of stuff that seems to make sense to everyone else.

One thing I don't get is why people would wear earrings. Putting a hole in the weirdest part of the body to hang shiny metal from it? Strikes me as odd, and if you really look at them they just look silly.
Yeah, earrings are just like weird Prince Albert's, it is odd that someone would want to pierce their ears where there are much better places to put bits of metal.

No, seriously though, I don't really understand why people would want any part of their body pierced, let alone their ears. I see it more as a liability & don't like the idea of catching a piercing on something. I get enough pain when I catch my nipple on the door frame, and that's not even pierced.

I don't quite understand how I manage to keep doing this, or why I don't learn from it, but it really really hurts.
I think it's a combination of the trajectory at which I leave the front room, rushing to go to the kitchen, sometimes having an erect nipple, & having poor spatial awareness.

Blasphemy! I don't get nightclubs, you stand around listening to crap electro music, sipping overpriced drinks, yelling into other peoples ears. Most the people who hang aroung nightclub areas are assholes, drug addicts or gang knobheads and its all for the hope that some drunk girls standards are low enough to give you the time of day. No thankyou. I guess I'll add my opinion to piercings, why are people paying to have themselves impaled with tiny bits of metal? I also don't get really overweight people, some people I just ask myself, "How do you let yourself get that way?" Don't justify that KFC by having diet pepsi! Also, overweight kids, thats gotta be a form of child abuse, right? All children would gleefully only eat junk food, its the parents responsibility to prevent that! Finally, I don't get people who are assholes. We are all strange and different people, stuck on a floating rock in universe too big to comprehend. We are in this together, why be a prick to others? Why steal from , insult, inconvenience and generally try to ruin someone elses day/life? Also, why do women find these characteristic attractive?

I think piercings for most people has to do with some kind of deeper spiritual meaning, which is what it probably started as long ago. As a mark of distinction through pain and a mark that you endured the pain for distinction. The same with tattoos, its a spiritual/cultural mark of individuality or distinction. Hawaiin men get tattoos to symbolize becoming a man, and its a very arduous and painful process. By going through this pain you've gone on a spiritual experience and become a man by enduring the pain, and you have a distinctive mark to show what you've gone through.

The same thing goes for piercings.
(Atleast if my totally off the top of my head theory is correct, though the tattoo bit is factual).

Today, its either a mark of vanity or individuality, so to set yourself apart from the herd.

Another one:

I don't get how everyone can get into college, and worse, *through* college. It seems like half of the people in my Communications Seminar class (available only to graduating seniors) have a hard time pronouncing the simplest of words, and still write papers like you're taught to in your Freshman year of High School.

People who put gum ON trashcans.
Lunchladies who put the bare-minimum ammount of food on your tray, do they get what's left over or what?
Anarchists.
Why the electoral college hasn't been gotten rid of for a better system.
Why it costs more money to "help save abused animals" than it does to feed a starving child in Africa.
What the actual difference between pie and cobbler is.

How someone can live in a country with a good education system, which they have access to, and still be complete and utter morons. For proof look at The Customer Is Always Wrong thread.
Seriously it really annoys me that with the easiness and availability of good education today we still have people thicker than 2 wooden planks.

Same, and why some people seem to care about animals more than other human beings.
"Hmmm, i could either become a vet and help cats or become a doctor and help babies...hmmm... Well i like animals more, here i come veterinary school!"

Do you know that in most cases you have to train harder/learn more than a regular doctor to be a veterinarian.

How people think alchahol tastes good.
Why people do drugs just to be "cool"
Why some people for some reason must have the bass in their cars set so damn high it can take out a lung like a shockwave from a bomb.
The reason behind getting a piercing or a tatttoo. Just seem's silly to me.
The whole "Let's just be friends" bullshit line and just girls in general.

I don't get why:

The girls in my class are afraid of snails.
People think Jim Carrey is funny.
My friend would sniff artificial creaming during a train trip.
Sniffing artificial creaming gives you pumping headaches and light-sensitivity.
People have to call me "*****" just because I headshotted them 5 times in a row.
Game-development doesn't get any more support from the department of culture.
