Why not exercise options in the money?

Real quick and potentially stupid question
A) why do people not exercise contracts in the money?

B) why can’t you purchase and already “in the money contract” and then exercise it immediately after purchasing it.

I’m sure there is a very obvious answer to both of these questions but I’d love to know for sure.
