If plastic is made from oil, and oil is made from decomposed animals from hundreds/ thousands/ millions of years ago...
Then are plastic dinosaurs made of real dinosours?

I've head this one before and the answer is no (sorry to destroy the idea).
Oil is made from the remains of aquatic algae called diatoms, not from dinosaurs.
Why are freshly made beds so much more comfortable?

Has anybody else noticed that as the violence in kids programs has gone down the world has generally gone downhill? Is it just me or is it an amazing coincidence?
My parents grew up with things like Tom and Jerry and they turned out fine. Mine and my sister's generation (80's kids) grew up with power rangers, transformers, looney Tunes, etc and they generally seam ok but teenagers and some young adults these days (people born around 1995) grew up with the Teletubbies, Dora the Explorer and spongebob squarepants.
Bring back Tom and Jerry, Transformers and Street Fighter games for the under 10's. That's all I'm saying...

How come the steering wheel on my car has all the controls for my radio/stereo except ones to turn it on and off? If I want to do this I still have to take my hand off the steering wheel which I am assuming the other controls on my steering wheel were designed to prevent me from having to do.

Loony Tunes is great and all but Spongebob is fantastic! As are Futurama, Simpsons and others like Adventure Time, I do like the classics but some modern stuff is just as good.
Im 21 now and have just realized that Ive come to that point in my life when I realize that getting socks for Christmas is actually pretty handy - quite depressing!

How come you have to be 18 to buy scissors yet there is no age restriction on tin snips?
Last time I checked tin snips were a damm sight stronger and before anyone says its because they aren't as sharp, they are. I use mine all the time as scissors when cutting out templates to transfer to sheet steel.

Why Is there no age restriction on buying grinders then??
They're lethal
Exactly yet you have to be 16 to buy an aerosol can.

Why is it that caffeine is supposed to be bad for you in England, yet if you go to Spain, Pepsi Max is marketed as having "Extra Caffeina"?

As I understand it the age restriction on the sale of bladed instruments should apply to tin snips, as it exists to prevent all bladed instruments being used/carried as offensive weapons by minors under the offensive weapons act 1996:

Have you ever tried carrying/concealing a grinder as an offensive weapon? It's really not that practical, but not half as impractical as carrying the generator you need to power it in the street!! ("Step any closer and I'll grind ya ass!!.... just give me a minute to plug it in and fire up me genny though!!" 
)
The sale of aerosol paint is restricted to over 16's is nothing to do with safety, or offensive weapons, it's to prevent them being used for graffiti/vandalism by minors under the Anti Social behaviour act 2003. The sale of aerosols containing solvents is actually restricted to over 18's though, again this has nothing to do with safety or offensive weapons, it's in order to reduce solvent abuse amongst under 18's under the Intoxicating Substances Supply Act 1985.
