Because yesterday, while walking the dog on nice level ground I went over on my ankle...in front of loads of people. And this morning, it still flippin' hurts. 😡
A mere few hours later, while making an omelette, I cracked an egg, emptied it into the kitchen compost thingy and put the shell into the mixing bowl. 😳
And every so often (I'm kinda nicking this from a comedian, but I do it), I bite the inside of my cheek. 🙂
Anybody else had a moment when he or she realised that a higher being couldn't have been involved in his/her design?
No, I always feel vastly superior to all other life forms.
Testicles.
So a failure in the QC process means the design is crap then?

Ever bite your tongue ernie? No, I didn't think so... 😉
deadlydarcy - I nearly wrote this exact same post last week!
I bit the inside of my cheek twice whilst eating too fast, I banged my hip on a kitchen worktop that has been there for years, I caught my head on an open cupboard door and I got a mile down the road before realising I'd forgotten to bring just about everything I needed for the day.
I was going to ask if anyone else has days where co-ordination and brain function are just shot . . .

I made it through though \o/
Mrs deadly often trawls the interweb looking for a return address.
I regularly have days like that.
Cheek biting - yes
milk in cupboard, cornflakes in fridge - yes
polystyrene base left on pizza - yes
stubbed little toe on edge of table thats been there for years - yes.

Mere physical hiccups cause little dent to the overall smug satisfaction of my huge intellectual capacity Deadly.
I think you'll find your warranty is with the retailer, not the manufacturer.
I can't give myself a Darcy recognised bodyfat measurement test.
...milk in cupboard, cornflakes in fridge...
that's just human stupidity, we all do that.
as for 'designed' - why do whales have leg bones?
why do i have an appendix?
etc.
Why do men have nipples?why do humans have an appendix?
Only joking, but do all/most other male mammals have nipples? or is it just us and chimps/gorrillas etc I haven't noticed them on pigs and bulls but then I haven't really looked.

All these things are 'User Error', not a fault with the design.
Whenever I ride my MTB.

Just because we (with our limited intelligence) don't understand the design, it doesn't mean they weren't deliberately designed that way.
And while we're at it: Hair. What purpose does that perform, other than for wasting hours and hours washing and styling it.
What's the difference between hair and fur?
Is this you pondering on the issue?

i managed to punch myself in the bollocks whilst folding up a duvet last weekend.
Higher mammal indeed.
hair acts as a "lubricant". Stops you chafing when sweaty round those chafey/sweaty parts (groin and pits).
LOL! Where did you get that picture?
http://surgeonsblog.blogspot.com/2007/08/pile-o-problems.html
by googling [ images] either hairy man or hirsute man I forget which
One word: Platypus.
Although that could be evidence for unitelligent design, or design with a twisted sense of humour. Or design whilst drunk.

God uses stock parts.
It's a picture of PhilC!

I've 'whipped' myself with the edge of a towel in a similar incident.
And again, in a similar fashion - whilst performing very drunken Pete Townsend air guitar windmills 🙂
That's outstanding yossarian! 🙂 I pretty much permanently have some cut scab or general abrasion on my head due to lamping my big baldy bonce into stuff. Cupboard doors and the fireplace are my favourites, but anything will do!
I look like Mikael gorbachov most of the time 🙁

That's why such work should be left to those without testicles.

Anaphylaxis. Other than the Ren n Stimpyesque humour it brings when resolved (it's obviously not funny when it goes bad), it seems pretty poorly planned to allow substances to make the human body react as such.
Also women giving birth and pooping themselves. Again, the same humour value present but it seems a little...agricultural.
And finally testicles on the outside, surely a body temp of 36.5 and internal balls is better?

Lolz. In your eagerness to be a smartarse, that's the best you could come up with. Poorly designed wit. 😐
Women giving birth and only getting their milk through a day (or more) later seems really odd. Think of the wee little hungry babies! Should have the pumps primed and ready to go in an ideal world.Anaphylaxis.

Just because God decides to build an idiot doesn't make him stupid. 🙂
Male cats have nipples.
HTH
Just because God decides to build an idiot doesn't make him stupid.
You'd think that he'd make the tools fool-proof though. Otherwise it's just a theological schadenfreude!
I don't want to eat flies.
According to Natural Selection, flies don't want to get eaten.
Therefore, flies that fly in to my mouth while I'm riding are proof that god exists.
The question is, which god ?
Flies not wanting to get eaten does not correlate to flies not realising that that object coming towards them is:
a, coming towards them
b, has an open mouth
I don't want to eat flies.
Shheezh you take this whole vegan thing really seriously!
I'm sure some meat eaters wouldn't find them hugely appetising.
What's the difference between hair and fur?
Unless they've changed the meaning in modern times, hair is what animals grow, fur is what mankind wears. Hence a fur coat is made from animal skin and hair.
Gannets...
I think they might have changed the meaning in modern times TuckerUK. Some cats are described as having tabby fur, not tabby hair, a red squirrel has reddish fur, not reddish hair, panthers have sleek black fur, not sleek black hair, and so on, despite the fact that none of these examples need refer to what mankind wears. It's probably fair to describe fur as the sum total of hair on an animal's body. IMHO.
The fact that on the human body the sewage outlet is right next to the playground is proof enough that god is a civil engineer.
Necrotizing Fasciitis.
A tube through which we breathe as well as take in nourishment, thereby risking choking to death.
Earthquakes.
Evangelism.
Tony Blair.
... to mention a few...
...and of course, proponents of "Intelligent Design", the evolutionary result of Biblical Literalists realising they sound stupid, but who still don't accept the obvious.
