Why is it that driving at 20mph behind a learner driver is often irritating but when you happen upon one doing a 3 point turn, you are happy to sit patiently back and let them get on with it?

Why is it in a sunny day you go to work with a spring in your step, yet on bad days you don't want to go.  When in reality on a sunny day you would rather be at home and on a bad day you may as well be in work?

Why are all majorities "vast"?

Why do people say "the reality is"? Can you think of a sentence that wouldn't mean exactly the same with that phrase removed? And why do all these realities take place "at the end of the day"? What are people doing for the rest of the day?
