Because the original God might get angry!

Why does "Another God" see with only 'one eye'?

Oh, another god doesn't see with one eye. Another God just hides behind the pretence of an eye, avoiding the real world by filtering all of reality through a bias inducing organ.

Does anyone here have any idea where that eye comes from?

Why is it that we say that the sun only shines "in the daylight hours", when we know that it shines all of the time?

Did twisted angel not read the intro and title to this topic, or is he just trying to piss us off by never posting a question?
 
  • #39
Twisted Angel posted a question alright. It went 'Huh?' which is probably about as stupid a question as you can get, so no problem there. Unfortunately he/she didn't answer any question before posting.

Do you think TA will read the opening thread now and figure out what they are supposed to do?
 
  • #40
i think TA shall

if the Earth goes around the sun, what does the sun go around?

The sun doesn't go around anything. It moves in a pentagram pattern, that's why there are so many demons lurking in the solar system.

How many demons are lurking in the solar system?

He wants to know where his pants went, because he never left them, and he really wants to know where he actually went, just to shy to ask it that way. (would have to admit to having been that drunk??)

If the Sun goes around the outer edge of the galaxy, then what does Twisted Angel go around?



(Grimmus, YES!)

TA goes around a corner.

Actually, I never drink alcohol. I have never taken any drugs illegally, either. I am always 100% sober.

What do you call an undergraduate that is always 100% sober.
 
  • #47
A liar!

Why is there no such term as 'overgraduate'?
 
  • #48
cos it probably doesn't have a proper definition - and not enuff ppl use the term...(hence it not being in the dictionary)

Because you seem to think that all of the Bad people, are already "full up"!

How do we prove that "Another God" is really the center of the Universe??

Alter the universe.
And how do you propose we do that?

We use Bush's fabled "nucular" weapons.

Why did Bush win the election?

The elevtion results were in a quantum superposition. Someone looked at them, causing the superposition to collapse into an observable outcome. In most other alternate universes, Gore won.



Is there anything more popular than mastication latex?

At what stage in evolution did humans start shaving?

It happened right after we had both fire and alcohol. It went like this, all the guys were drinking alcohol around the fire and eventually they would try to stand up to releive their bladders, but would fall into the fire burning away all of their beard. After awhile it became a "fashion statement" because they figured it sounded better than "drunk idiot".

What?
