From time to time, we all have to sit down and contemplate the big questions. Sure, there's always the standard "Glock vs. 1911" debate that the gun forums are so fond of, or deeper still is the "Is there really a God?" question. Or the classic Animaniacs question "why do hot dogs come in packages of 8 but hot dog buns come in packages of 10?" One of my favorites is "Free Will vs. Predestination" argument, which I honestly believe every theological debate can be condensed back into. One that seems to be fairly common these days is "What the heck is [insert politician of choice] THINKING?!?!?!?!"
But a question that has been heavy on my mind lately, and I can't seem to come up with any explanation that satisfies. It could just be the question that defines the times...
Why do shower curtains have 12 holes?

Probably had something to do with the average length of bathtubs versus the average tensile strength of the shower curtain, and not wanting the damned thing to tear itself down.
Me, I am just amazed that they sell shower curtain hooks in the same number as the holes...
Are 9mm shower curtain holes better than .45 holes?
Linoge: exactly! Why haven't they standardized hot dogs and buns?
Tango Juliet: I would actually hazard a guess and say 9mm is better when it comes to shower curtains. The smaller diameter gives you more material to hold on to the ring, and makes it less likely to rip.
