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.

Peas are really the godfathers of whales. You know that pea plants have this crazy ability to convert atmospheric nitrogen into nutrition providing nitrates. Nutrition, my @$$ ! The peas are 'really' only removing nitrogen from the air for the benefit of their godchildren - the chosen ones. By removing nitrogen, they make the air a little more oxygen rich. To you and me, this is not a big deal...if we need more oxygen, we inhale. Now, you know who needs to make a crazy long trip just to grab some extra air - wouldn't it be nice, if they could get a little more each time ? So, that's the real explanation.

The pea plants. ladies and gentlemen, are really more than just Godfathers to the whales. <drumroll> They are Supreme Beings whose mission is to rid man of God. They noticed some time ago, that this dude called Charlie was having a hard time convincing the folks about something he called Evolution. So, they fooled some Austrian monk into conjuring up a thing called Genetics. This provided beautiful evidence for Charlie's Theory. And thus began the strongest Ain't-God movement in history.

But if the peas are really Supreme Beings, shouldn't we worship them instead ?

We should but the ISBC (International Supreme Beings Commity) has said that peas are to seen as a 'normal' being so we do not worship them. If we did then they would take over the world.

What would a world ruled by peas be like?

First of all there would be no more movies or sitcoms where a child is forced to eat their peas before desert. Peas and lesser vegetables (who are still part of the same supreme family) would be seen as a delicacy and worshiped via a wookie prayer prior to consumption. Next any important political figure who eats vegetables and vomits would be instantly deported to the peapod flats of eternally smelly compost where they will be forced to eat dirt and excrete fresh air for the rest of us.

If you ate dirt, what type of dirt would be the best tasting?

Very, very difficult to say. It's all so good.


Recently when I was in Hamsterdam I visited the Vaan GKockgh(choke/cough) museum to observe his gritty, savagely honest portrait of poverty, The Dirt Eaters. Did you know that Vaan Gkockgh(choke/cough) was so poor, himself, that he had to make his own paints from used motor oil and whatever roughly reddish, yellowish, and bluish dirt he could beg from impoverished dirt eaters of his acquaintance, and that, in lean times, he had to subsist on his own paints? Didja know that? Huh?
 
  • #1,355
I did know that, and in fact much more. It was for good reason that Vaan GKockgh was sometimes known as Vaan de Multi-Couloure, as his ingestion of pigments in lean times affected his personal hue. When Vaan went mad in later days he was remembered by his habit of wearing a specially crafted suit of mirrors in order to reflect all wavelengths of light and not be discriminated against because of his funny pigmentation.

When Vaan wrote his poetic tribute to the Rainbow Donkeys:

At the Water's Edge
like Braying Butterflies
those Stubborn Jewels
the Many-hued Donkeys
Stood Adored by the Light
Reflected from the Sun-sparked Sea!

was he truly thinking of rainbow-colored donkeys or was this a pastoral reflection on his own physical condition and the patronage he held from Countess de Sparksun, who was rumored to be his lover?

Patronage? I believe you have Vaan Gkockgh(choke/cough) mixed up with Vaan Beeteater, the composter, who had a patron or two, and whose first name was also Vaan, but who did not eat paint, (or beets, in spite of the name) but who did gnaw on a piano stool leg once or twice during lean times, and who was also frequently off color, sporting, as he did, a beet-red complexion, the result of a childhood bout with the beet pox. Vaan Beeteater's famous albumenblatt "Furry Lisa" was composted in honor of the Countess Elisabeard de Sparksun. Or so they speculate.

So, what you're trying to say is that the vivid, impersonistic colors in Vaan Gkockgh(choke/cough's) self portraits were not artistic enhancements for he purpose of laying bare the state of his soul, but rather, the true to life colors of his pigment-nourished derma?

Because Narwhals can't move fast and so are useless at resuces. They have to come from the North Pole to Japan or Canada to get the knifer. Not fast enough.

Simple. These giant fieldmice are in Africa. So to stop them attacking you, jump into a pride of lions.

Lions are deathly afraid of giant fieldmice, and can hear them coming a mile off, so the lions are never around when you need them.

They were too heavy and expensive and most people just died. Plus the design fault of the boots was that the 5 mile range was only in front of you, so if the Giant African Fieldmouse was behind you, you have no hope.

Cheese.

How much cheese will we need to deal with a group of African Giant Field Mice?

The legend that AGFMs (not to be confused with ROUSes) are afraid of cheese arose from an encounter at the Boer village of De Heuvel in the early nineteenth century. The village cheese maker, Matthijs van de Kaas, was known for the exceptionally large wheels of cheese he produced, sometimes over seven feet in diameter. When the alarm was raised that AGFMs were approaching the village, van de Kaas, struck by the idea for a new use for his cheeses, called everyone together and convinced them to roll cheese wheels down the hillside towards the marauding mega-rodents. The AGFMs, when faced with several six foot Goudas rolling down the hill at them, merely did what any sensible being would do at this point and fled in disarray. (Those who claim they would just get out some crackers have apparently never been threatened by a sufficiently large rolling cheese...)

The only cheese that AGFMs actually find threatening in a non-motile state is a little known cheese from Quebec called "Puissant Nectar de Mofette" which is made from skunk's milk. How was the effect of this cheese on the AGFMs discovered?

Get on a zip line from a helicopter, reach down and tickle the skunk's belly, then when it rolls over laughing, grab its teats and tug away.

How come skunk milk never became commercially viable?
 
  • #1,372
jimmy p said:

Actually, it was on the shelves a few days, and they even gave out free samples. But it suffered what is known in the marketing circles, as the Fairy Tale Effect.

It was cheap as hell - considering how easy it is to milk a skunk (just use one helicopter, one length of rappeling cord, and extreme skill). And it smelled like the sweetest nectar from heaven. It was just too good to be true. Surely, there's got to be a catch !

That just killed its sellability. Even the marketing gurus treated it like it was some foul fluid secretion from a stinky creature.

The other theory is that the brandname, "****" failed to capture the market.

Is it true that long debates with skunks causes a disease known as skunk anser ?
 
  • #1,373
No one has ever had a very long debate with a skunk. Skunks have a way of ending debates abruptly with their opponents.

Because then you would have to call a decade "10/century" which is a mouthful.

It's a conspiracy.

They don't have eyes. If they did, they'd go blind from looking at the sun, and would instead grow away from it, towards the darker ground, like moles :biggrin: . Moles are nifty. :approve:

You can call me Bonfire, or Andy, or Andrew, or even Silly if you want. It's easier than my username, amwbonfire.

And, seeing as though no one else replies to this topic, I'll answer your question.

Women are called cows because:

Cows are female, and so are women. Noticing that both cows and women could be nasty (ever been charged by a cow?), a young man by the name of... um... his name was... Henry, got the two mixed up. He called a woman a cow.

No wait, here's a more plausible lie:

Cows give milk, and so do women (when they're mothers...) Noticing the similarity, a young man called... Tony decided to call women cows, and the name stuck. It was actually first used as an endearing term that Tony used to call his lover. He called her it so much that it became her nickname. One day she left him for 4 other men (she wanted to quadruple-date), and all her friends called her a sl*t. (Sorry for the naughty word!) Anyway, they used to go around saying "Cow is a s***", and then people started thinking a cow was another name for a woman who sleeps around. Eventually cow became an insult that was said to women (it's common useage today.)

Well, I think we all believe that. :approve:
