Damn you science, damn you!

Most religions think you should burn fairys

After a couple of punctures...... that may be an appealing option

[grovel] Not of course that I woluld condone any activity that would cause the slightest harm to any Fairy, especially the p*nct*re fairy[/grovel]

So why is it then, that science has not yet been able to tell me why whenever I get a puncture it is ALWAYS on the back tyre, and ALWAYS after 10pm, and ALWAYS when it is raining.

rear tyre - more weight so more force applied if there is a foreign object between the tyre and the ground.

rain - water acts as a lubricant so it makes it easier for foreign objects to penetrate the tyre

10pm - you watch has stopped working?

simples.

Why would you want to follow a religion that thinks the reason unicorns are not about is because they were late to noah's ark.

Having considered the evidence and conducted fiendish experiments in my secret castle laboratory, engaged all the world's supercomputers, consulted with the finest minds and explored fearlessly the darkest regions of the universe I am pleased to announce a Solution:

Don't ride your bike after 10 pm.

Hope this helps

But if you must cycle after 10 pm, perform a back-wheel wheelie, so effectively ridding yourself of a rear wheel on the road.

Finally, the conundrum is solved - My faith in science has been restored. I now officially renounce my renouncement of science!

So far scientific boffins have been able to answer crucial questions such as "why does the toast always land butter side down?" and "why does a cat always land on its feet?".

Certainly the reason for the toast falling butter side down is covered.

Certainly the reason for the toast falling butter side down is covered.

I always thought that the chances of it landing butterred side down came down to two things:
1. How much of the loaf was actually left. The less of the loaf left, the higher the chance of it being butterred side down.
2. The cost of floor covering in place where the toast hit the ground. Also taken into account was how long said floor covering had been in place & the cost/ease at which it could be cleaned.

Now can someone explain how the "five second rule" works.

that's because they art constituent parts of the ultimate perpetual motion machine

Tie a piece of butter toast to the back of a cat throw it towards the ground and it will go into a perpetual spin as the cat tries to land feet down and the toast tries to land butter side down​

Did
Didnt the human race try this...
Oh what was it called again...
Ah that's right
The Dark Ages

Well, I suppose anything after ten o'clock is the dark ages...

I'll slip out of the back door while noone's looking.
