you know, i was sitting at school today looking at my soda bottle and i was wondering “how DO they make things like plastics??” i mean, it’s solid, and it’s amazingly clear, etc etc etc. i don’t remember everything i thought about it, but it did amaze me, and the more and more i tried to think about it the less and less i found out i actually knew about things like plastics.
it ranks up there with other things i don’t know the how or why of… things like “how does frank oz manage to do the voice of miss piggy?” or “why don’t we feel the stuff on our insides when they’re all brushing up next to each other?”
really, i ought to be deemed a great thinker… bet nobody else thought up stuff like this before me, hah!
