Question

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

Answer 1

Because it's satisfying to watch the vaccum cleaner suck it off the floor

Answer 2

lol didn't you know? A different location on the carpet makes all the difference. even if it's just an inch over... some parts of the carpet are more clingy than others. Plus, we had to make sure there was nothing wrong with the string. You know, make sure it didn't have any deformities or problems that would cause the vacuum to reject the string.....

Answer 3

Because they think like fish...they go in a circle a couple of times and then try to break the circle by tring to think

Answer 4

Faith in the almighty power of the vacuum. However, like so much blind faith it is dissappointing when it can't give you all the little things.

Answer 5

because some people think that just because a device is designd to do something that it and it alone should do the job no matter how easy it may be to do otherwise.

Answer 6

Answer 7

that's what i bought the darn thing for
when in doubt give it another Chance lol

happy day
old geezer

Answer 8

Finally, an intelligent question on Yahoo Answers.

I don't have an answer for that one.

Answer 9

Because they lead pointless redundant unchanging lives and might as well because they have nothing better to amuse them.

Answer 10

because they want a new string. and they need something to destroy the old one first, so theyll have a reason to get it.
