Why is it that when people discuss comparing things that have nothing to do with each other, they say "it's like comparing apples and oranges"? They should say "it's like comparing apples and Tuesday", because apples and oranges can reasonably be compared, and apples and Tuesday cannot be reasonably compared at all.

It's just a figure of speech. You're not suppose to take it literally.

Yes...but still, it just makes more sense to say "it's like comparing apples and Tuesday" than "it's like comparing apples and oranges".

Let me ask you something. Do you lose sleep at night because of this?

No...at least I don't lose sleep that I would've gotten otherwise...

Apples plus oranges equals fruit.

See? You CAN add apples and oranges.

I have no idea what apples plus Tuesday is though.

Yes...that's my point. You can add apples and oranges, but you can't add apples and Tuesday. And I honestly don't want to know what would happen if you tried.

No...you can't add Apples and Tuesday because they have nothing to do with each other...and you didn't actually add them there... What?

Yeah I did. Apples plus Tuesday = You're going to be having apples this coming Tuesday.

Or we could try it a different way and assume that we are talking about base 36 and the additional numerals are A through Z. You can figure out what it'd be on your own. I'm certainly not going to.

Uh...no, that doesn't make any sense. Or maybe it does...no, wait, it doesn't...wait, it does...no, it doesn't...uh...

Isn't 42 the answer to life, the universe, and everything? ...at least it was, the last time I checked.
