    Why is a woodchucker called a woodchucker when it doesn't chuck wood?

    As barmey as a sack of badgers

              You put oil in an oil can but you don't put toast in a toaster.

                        Let's just go with a classic favorite. Lemonade is made out of lemons. So what is gatorade made out of? Oatmeal cookies are made of oatmeal. So what are girl scout cookies made of?

                        If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                          Technically, 'toast' is 'toasted bread'. toast (v.) "to brown with heat," late 14c., from O.Fr. toster "to toast or grill" (12c.), from V.L. *tostare (cf. It. tostare, Sp. tostar), frequentative of L. torrere (pp. tostus) "to parch" (see terrain). You can put anything in a toaster if it goes brown with heat.

                          Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription

                            Olive oil is made from olives. So what is baby oil made from?
