There are of course the often quoted ones such as

Why is Abbreviation such a long word?
Why is Dyslexic so difficult to spell?
Why is there only one Monopolies commision?
Why isn’t there another word for Thesaurus?

Then I was listening to the radio today and heard the phrase 'head over heels' and thought "isn’t your head always over your heels?"

Any odd words or phrases that confuse or puzzle you?

I once invented powdered water, but I didn't know what to add to it.

Is a frog's ass water tight.

I want to get a tattoo of myself on my body, but taller.
