Maybe not a fit for the humor thread, but seedless watermelons are hybrids that are grown from seeds. They are triploids, so they're sterile, and don't have their own seeds. But the seeds for them are produced by hybridization.

The common analogy is breeding a horse and donkey gets a mule, but then the mule is sterile. Seedless watermelons are sterile hybrids, so no seeds in them, even though they grow from seeds.

Thanks. I really did wonder about this. :D

I have a soft spot for perceptive women who produce pithy observations that say much in few works. In that regard, Nora Ephron was a treasure. I love this quote from "You've Got Mail". Totally humorous, but also brutally honest.

"The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don’t know what the hell they’re doing, or who on earth they are can – for only $2.95 – get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall. Decaf. Cappuccino."
