    Stupid
Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around a playful and humorous exchange in a new forum, encouraging participants to ask "stupid questions" and receive equally silly answers. Participants engage in lighthearted banter, often incorporating puns and wordplay, such as discussing the time it might take to reach 1,000 posts or the best superpower, with self-levitation being a favorite. Questions range from the absurd, like the fate of old forums, to whimsical inquiries about elephants and the universe. The tone is irreverent, with users joking about the nature of their questions and the concept of "stupidity" in their responses. The thread serves as a space for creative and nonsensical dialogue, emphasizing fun over seriousness.

What time is it?

Time to buy a watch! (Or, wear the one you have at home in your drawer, or, time to annoy another person with that question, or, time to mind your own business, or, time to get a life, or, time to stop asking what time is it, or, time for me to leave, or,....)

Why do some people scream answers at you, when it never changes the accuracy/inaccuracy of the responce??

It's demostrably paradoxical (a Wuliheron-ish answer). Or, because math says so (and Alexander-ish answer).

Why do people consider the heart to be the "seat of motivation"?

why is hot water hot instead of cold?

why is hot water hot instead of cold?

Well, in the case Hot V Cold (#456 C SCUSA) the jury was apprised of the accusation of prejudice that arose from the hot water accusing the cold water of actually not being cold enough, the rebuttal from the hot water was to deride the reputation of the cold water is such a manner as to impose upon the 17th amendement rights, of said cold water, as to ensure that the allegation of the inferance of the "non temperate" nature of the water was to be examined by a physicist, an expert in the field of water temperature, so pending the outcome of the final assessment of the assay of the true state of the waters nature, this question cannot be stupidly responded to, aside from the legal implications, to this author, for the possibilities of breech of temporal trust in his blatant, and oh so public, display of disrespect towards such a thermal fluid issue.

Oooooops, this just in, it seems that a restraining order has been placed upon any further explanation of the jurisprudence that is being set, in this particularily contentious issue between hot water and cold water, hence, futher discourse upon siad matter will be met with the force of law as to ensure that all legalities are maintained to the fullest extent of the laws legal ability to extend the long arm of the law pertaining to said allegation of frigidity with respect to the heated matter, order # 398275647384595066003038075497-j-485756393 part; 'c' section, 42

As many nits as the nit-picker could pick, you nit-wit!

There are people who are "witty". And there are people who are "half-wits". But what about other fractions? What's a "quarter-wit", or a "third-wit".

Nope there are only 1/2 wits, the rest are witless!

If you are tuly "witless", does that preclude you from being a wit-ness?

Only if you are not consciously asking the question, cause a conscious person doesn't ask if they are conscious, only unconscious people ask if they are conscious.

The very fabric of spacetime itself would destroy itself. Sudden, and utter, chaos would errupt. Nothing could ever exist again. All because humans defied their nature :wink:.

if beauty is in the eye of the beholder than why hasn't anyone thought of finding this "Beholder", scooping out his eyes, eating them, and thus become beautyful (or full-of-beauty)?

Well since it is you who are/is the beholder, well, I wouldn't recommend that you try it, cause you won't be able to see outer beauty anymore, and I doubt that it will increase you ability to see inner beauty any better then with your eyes functioning properly.

Stay Beautiful, inside, and out!

Son, it should be pretty fun to see a nun make a pun, but there are none, who'd make a pun, under the sun.

Is this statement false?
