why does the world have problems?

[[Vertically.Challenged]]

I have the answer.....


potted flowers.

hear me out:

ok. people buy potted flowers. they spend all that money on something thats gonna die anyway.

what if we stopped buying stuff like potted flowers.

we would have more money to spend on more important things.things what would help the world.

If we added up all the money we spent on potted flowers....we would have a lot of money.

just a thought.

[[this formed from a debate with my mom about college money when she was picking out potted flowers. she could use that money for my college education! gonk ]]

anyway, how are you guys today? :]  

[crazy_mongoose]

lmao. Did she buy 300 dollars worth of potted flowers?

Tell her to Just buy the seed packets that are like 1.50$, thats what my friend does, it saves like 14 dollars, and gives you an activity ^^

My mom loves to buy flowers and plant them in the front yard. It makes her oddly happy and lately it's been hard for her to be happy, with all the stress and bills, etc. So I don't complain to her about money if she goes to buy them =D

 

[Rabid Bagel Cow Thing]

Hahaha.

Interesting logic.

How about from your Mom's POV, we sell all of the things you don't use anymore for your college education? Likes old old games or clothes etc? biggrin

*shrugs*

Think how much money she spends on feeding and clothing you...

She could stop doing that instead...And let you turn tricks to pay your own way...

She'd have your entire college fund saved up in a few months... 3nodding

haha. its so hard to express joking over the internet. XP.

I really dont mind. I was joking around with my mom.

I just thought it was rather humorous and an interesting thing I thought of in my fantastical mind......

. my mom loves planting. I wouldn't stop her from doing that. 3nodding

Elendil- HAHA! thats ironic. my mom said the same thing. XD. I said "yeah but at least feeding and clothing me is a need......potted flowers? noooope."

my mom just laughed XD.

Bagel- :S......meeeppp.....well at least its stuff I dont need......haha.

Jasper- she gets those too. -.-  

[E spiritus Halloween]

I thought the world was messed up because it was ruled by talking, hairless, egomaniacal, primate decendents.  

[Rabid Bagel Cow Thing]

Oh, we knew you were joking.

Why else would we be so sarcastic...?
Hahaha.

You can get a job?
Or if you have a job already.. keep working/saving. x]
Textbooks cost too much.. -sigh-

[KuroAkaNeko]

There's lots of silly things that we spend money on instead of using it for other purposes. We do it for many reasons.. mainly because we want to please ourselves.. XD  

[Fuzia]

"Father, you're too late, my faith is weak...

Think about all the oxygen we would have, if we stopped making potted flowers! ... Oh well, guess that ain't quite enough for us to die, though sweatdrop

... So won't you save your half-hearted speech?"
