    Why Do some of us call it a hubcap if it covers the whole wheel?
    A 15 inch hub must be heavy as hell.:confused:

  2. Because the bit that covers the whole wheel is properly called a "wheel cover".

    Why do you park on driveways and drive on parkways?
     
  6. Why do you say you are going to the bathroom after you are already seated.
    Does a Moon Disc have to have a crack in it to be correct? :D

    I have heard them called both ways and even saw a brochure once that stated full hub caps. While another brand called them full wheel covers in the brochure but didn't even mention partial wheels covers for hub caps. The english language is a hard language to learn or so I have been told.

    People are lazy so the term "hubcap" remains in their minds as a term for wheelcover.

    Why is it called taking a dump when your leaving one? Why do they swab a prisoners arm with alcohol before they put the needle in to put him to death?

    I've always wanted to go through the drive-through at McDonalds with a white cane hanging outside the car door, sungl***es on, and my seeing-eye Chihuahua on my lap, pull up to the window and request the Braille menu. Get my order, then drive off, with the cane out the door, dog barking happily, and people freaking out all over.

    Just something to do...

    Why is a refrigerator-freezer called that? Shorten it. Call it a refridideezer.

    Why are there handicap parking places in front of the skating rink?
    Why do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and then a diet coke?
    Why do banks leave both doors open but they chain the pens to the counter?
    Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are dead?

    Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?

    Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime?

    Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

    If a cow laughed, would milk come out of its nose?

    If nothing ever sticks to Teflon, how do they make Teflon stick to the pan?

    If you tied ****ered toast to the back of a cat and dropped it from a height, what would happen?

    What do you call a pocket calculator in a nudist camp?

    If you jog backwards, do you gain weight?
