It is a well-documented fact that if what you are looking for doesn't have breasts, then it is invisible to the male eyes. It is known as “breast-blindness” and is similar to colour blindness and fashion blindness (all common in men).
As to why you sometimes see the objects…. You are simply thinking of breasts at the time. Picture the object you are looking for with a nice set of breasts on it, and it will magically appear. Failing that… ask the nearest woman. She doesn’t even have to know what you are looking for, or even needs to be looking; just having a set of breasts nearby improves your chances of finding the object.
How come “I promise to help my husband find things even though he just stands a screams” isn’t t included in the wedding vows for women? Young women should at least be advised of what to expect.

BTW, it's also known as "Male Refridgerator Blindness" or MRB which refers to our inability to see something unless it's right in front of our noses and not hidden behind something else.
How come my S.O. yells, "What are you looking for now?" 2 seconds after I find what I'm looking for.

How come I wasn't thinking about breasts at all until fencergrl's post?

| Because I flash pictures of breasts in all my posts so it will subliminally activate the pleasure centers of all men and lesbians and they will feel compelled to rep me. The straight women will be amused by this and rep me as well. 
What is in coca cola that rot nails?

| Be cause it's almost na Féile Pádraig (St. Patrick's Day) and I like leprechauns and every thing Irish (almost as much as Hobbits...but not quite)
How come we have Star Wars smilies? What have they to do with fencing?

| Because they've read it all before and probably don't want to relive the experiance.
How come I can never give rep to a person when I really really want to?  I still have to spread some more around.

How come when one thing in your life is going fantastically (ie. fencing and family), everything else goes to pot (ie. JOB)? | |

| (AHEM! You're supposed to begin with "How come", not "Why"!)
Because the vast majority of viewers are unwashed rabbits who would rather sit around and vote for the next American Idol (on their own dime, mind you!) than protest to the network stations to improve the quality of the fare they're dishing out.
How come som many people are listing their locations as "Under your bed" these days?

| the "under your bed" may be a lame attempt to be "sexy".....something many of us spend an inordinate amount of time doing.....
How come the average reading level of Americans is the 6th grade....?

| Because at that point, a lot of americans stop trying in school. They mainly just get promoted with f's up until highschool, then drop out.
How come the american education system sucks?
