Small questions.
"You said I ask only big questions, so here is a small question that has been bothering me for many years: Why does the telephone cable get all wound up, even if I never curl it? I have asked a few experts but haven't received an answer. It's infuriating."

Next time you use the phone, pay extra special attention: nine times out of ten you'll give the cord one or two twists between picking it up and putting it down again.
I normally pick up the phone which is now on my right with my right hand, put it next to my left ear and hold it there with my left hand while using my right hand to type on the computer and use my mouse. When I put it back down on the receiver I pass it to my right hand. When I do this operation my cord is twisted exactly one time.
