5. Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?

 

6. Why does "slow down" and "slow up" mean the same thing?

 

7. Why does "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing?

 

8. Why do "tug" boats push their barges?

 

9. Why do we sing "Take me out to the ball game" when we are already there?

 

10. Why are they called "stands" when they are made for sitting?

 

11. Why is it called "after dark" when it really is "after light"?

 

12. Doesn't "expecting the unexpected" make the unexpected expected?

 

13. Why are a "wise man" and?wise guy? opposites?

 

14. Why do "overlook" and "oversee" mean op posite things?

 

15. Why is "phonics" not spelled the way it sounds?

20. Why is bra singular and panties plural?

 

21. Why do you press harder on the buttons of a remote control when you know the batteries are dead?

 

22. Why do we put suits in garment bags and garments in a suitcase?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
