WHY?!?

Alright so...I gave you all a bit of a rest from angry germaphobic Neil for a while, but he's back and he has a few questions about europe.

Why is it always garbage day?
Why are the sirens so loud?
Why do you have to pay to use washrooms?
Why is my memory worse over here?
Why did I almost forget to write the above question?
Why do you have to weigh your own fruit at the supermarkets?
Why does everyone here smoke? (Did they not get the smoking'll kill you memo? and they smoke everywhere too: inside, outside, in train stations, around babies, in restaurants...and so on)
Why do you not need a liquor license to sell alcohol here? (Or if you do need one, why are they so easy to get)
Why do art museums sell wine?
Why am I always hungry?
Why is there nothing but stupid people here?
Why is everyone trying to scam everyone here?
Why aren't there any people out there trying to make the honest buck?
Why is our hostel in Florence right near the unemployment office?
Why is it called 'take away' here instead of 'take out'?
Why are fries called chips and chips called crisps?
Why is the ketchup different here?
Why do they put salt on the tables but not pepper?
Why do restaurants have a cover charge?
Why were the kiosks near the coliseum trying to sell me coke for 4 euro?
Why are there thousands of people trying to sell umbrellas and other useless shit like noise makers?
Why does the tour at the coliseum cost more than the entrance fee? Are they fighting lions or where's the money going?
Why is it then when I see the coliseum the first question that comes into my head is 'when am I gonna get to see Gladiator again'?
Why do i wanna knock people out when they misuse a word?
Why would I wanna buy a shitty umbrella when I'm already soaking wet?
Why am I so angry all the time (answer: see questions above)?
Why won't my clothes dry?
Why are there pigeons all over the place?
Why don't they sell Fanta in Canada?
Why don't they sell Barq's rootbeer in europe?
Why, when I feel depressed, is it that thinking about making movies or editing my movie the only thing that cheers me up?
Why are the scooters so loud?
Why is it ALWAYS GARBAGE DAY???
