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.

Scrappling an apple is easy. It's unscrappling it when you're done that's hard.Since the gray space alien union of hazardous asteroid retrieval and disposal is on strike a greater number of them than usual has been going door to door asking for handouts. What did you donate when they came to you?

Fuel, and a Gene ration.
How was that fuel extracted, from within me?

You will have amnesia for the actual extraction process, of course, but what they did was to grab you, one by each arm, and shake you like a rag doll till they had accumulated a large pile of dander beneath you, which they simply vaccuumed up to be taken for energy conversion in one of their many exceptionally efficient quantum transduction modules. (Incidently they will also have taken any incipient furballs you had in the works, but that process shouldn't be discussed in an open forum.)Recently, during a period of boredom, I taught myself to delete huge lists of useless things from my memory using Messiah's® Patented Recall Squelch techniques.
I discovered to my horror, however, that instead of freeing up memory storage space, my storage is more cluttered than ever with huge lists of useless things I am required to remember to forget. What is the meaning of the word: "frimbalism"?

It is a term for people who are trying to forget what they forgot they can remember, as in "Frimbalist" (what you are) "Frimbalistically" (what you are doing) "Frimbalizer" (you, as you are doing it) and the many extra interogeratons of the expressive "Frimballing" (an original derivation, is available from that word, but not publically...)
So while noticing a person 'Frimbalizing' on a street corner, the other day, I stopped and asked the corner lamppost for the direction back to Oz, it responded that lamppost's coundn't talk, Oz was no where near this place, and why the heck was I disturbing it's nap, to which, I excused myself, upon the basis of the 'frimabalizer' 'frimbalizing' upon that very same corner, but the lamppost called the police, I was arrested, and charged...with what?

Unlawful interrogation of a lighting fixture in a public fareway, §30077-657744484-12443. subsection G article 47b10000767.Complicated by the presence of a frimbalist,§567774899-2333551443-12443, same subsection. Maximun penalty: 36 months "soft" incarceration at Ontario Institute of Minor Corrections, minimun penalty: 12 weeks probabtion with curfew at dusk to prevent interaction with any public lighting fixtures while in operation.Recently I forgot to remember my experiences with Messiah's® Patented Memory Squelch Technique, took the course a second time, and precipitated a chaoic reversal such that I now remember everything that ever happened to me in excruciating detail, as well as huge volumes of experiences that never happened to me or anyone. How do I tell the difference between the authentic memories and the counterfeit?

If you're having sex in the memory, it is a fake.
If I were to invent a teleportation device and attempted to teleport myself to the moon (because the moon is neat), would my pants come with, or would they be left on Earth? If my pants were left behind, would the moon-people be offended by my lack of pants?

The moon people will moon you with or without pants.Recently when I was floating on my back in the Thames with a photograph of Chester Carlson, inventor of xerography, proped up on my chest, facing me so I could monitor his duplicitous intentions, a warped and swollen scrabble tile with either the letter M or W came floating by and I thought to myself: "So that's where it went."

They sleepwalk, of course. Oh wait, that's a somnambulist.
I think they scream profanities at inanimate objects, or maybe they play the xylophone, I don't know but I know for sure that they don't wear capes.

Now isn't that special?Often when I'm at the seashore I find old pirate chests full of jewels and Spanish coins. Sometimes I find old pirate peg legs. Sometimes I find old pirate hooks. Once I found an old pirate parrot. Once I found an old pirate. Why don't I ever find any new pirate stuff?

Easy, because the pirates were wiped out in the Great Ninja-Pirate Wars of the 18th Century.

Ohhhhhhhhhh... wow. and there was me (and probably zooby too, thinkin' there were pirates (other than software) sailin' the seas... TODAY!
Microsoft has other problems to worry about nowadays... as in, its source code has involuntarily joined the Linux ranks... as for who would be upset, considering Linux is freeware, under the GNU license, and the distributions... oh but this is a game thread, let us not..., shall we, i say we ship outta this dialectic much like pirates... do you pirate software, ever? MS-anything... oh, but I should shut up, I run XP

Well, upset? or? legally empowered! well...bringing in the "Female Dogs" isn't really going to help, but some of those very pretty (and intelligent) Female Attorneys might just do the trick to rectify the attempt at absconding the Competitions flag...
In taking the Competitions flag, is it required that you bring your own pole?
(run that quetion up the Flap pole! and salute it! will Ya..!)

It's funny you should ask that question because, once, when I was stretch out half dead like a woodchuck who'd just been introduced to a Peterbuilt truck the hard way, on the floor of a cardboard and blanket structure that a Polish aviator of my acquaintence used to frequent when he'd forgotten his address, he was regaling me with stories of his near misses with flocks of pelicans and other aircraft, frequently using the phrase: "So there I was, without a flap whose pole I could run it up, when..." and so on. I thought it was an obtuse turn of speach.
What do you do if there seems to be a speck of titanium dioxide in the eye of a polish aviator of your acquaintence but when you mention it he says" No, Titanium dioxide is in the eye of the beholder." ?

It's funny you should ask those quetions because he confessed to me once: "I should have been a pair of pastry halves enclosing a blob of wormy crabapple goo, being carried in the claws of a pelican, across the floor of silent seas." To which I responded "Sounds vaguely familiar." To which he replied,"Yes, I mentioned it just last night."Do fools flush gin, where angels: beer instead?

No, fools flush angels, for the latter cannot bear the former, while angels flush gin: monochromatic hand is not just a poker feature.
Do angels a-pair only in black and white, or do they "come in color" since More Hot Rocks?

Well flap my pole, I'll run that one up the point, and see if we can find one!
Well, while drinking, should one continue to breath...or just pole flap?

No, you can't even do this, since the hole you brath with is closed while the drink-hole is open.

Its part of their evil scheme to dominate and take over the world. First get the people sick through their "remedy" then knock them out cold with a large blunt object.
Why in the movies do the evil characters always get defeated? I really wanted Dr. Evil to take over the world!

It's funny you should ask that quetion because, once, when I was in a bar in tokyo I noticed Godzilla sitting by himself at a table at the back of the place in the shadows with about ten empty shot glasses in front of him, an ash tray full of cigarette butts, and a rolled up hundred dollar bill next to a powdery mirror, and I thought to myself:"No wonder he never wins."If I recall correctly there used to be a man on the street corner at 5th and Main who pretended to sell hot dogs and polish sausage but who in fact could procure just about anything you could think of for the right price. I recently found myself in need of a human costume in order to perpetrate a human sighting hoax on my fellow zoobies but discovered these are hard to come by. Has anyone seen that hot dog vendor recently?

Its worth cannot be counted in dollars and cents (or euros and eurocents), but look how much pleasure and happiness and money it brings to the world and you will know the answer.
Why is toothpaste always delivered in tubes and never in, say, glasses like marmalade? It would be recycl-able and if you got too much paste on your brush, you could easily put it back, eh?

I don't know why this is, because there is certainly no more appetizing thought than to scoop up a glob of toothpaste that someone else has wiped off their toothbrush.Recently while I was examining a priceless old vase at the museum of antiquities, a flock of chickadees swarmed into the gallery and began swirling around the vase, which jarred it such that it began to teeter precariously on the verge on tipping over. I threw myself around it, preventing it from falling, but found that the chickadees were pecking visciously at my person. What do you do when you're caught between a flock and a jarred vase?

Fly in the vase of voracity and jam what was once a-jar.
How do you jam toothpaste into a crock of marmalade which was sealed air-tight by a layer of pre-chewed Chicklets?

This is a trick quetion because this is only something a bee or a wasp would do, not a firefly, which isn't equiped with the dentition to handle chicklets.When I was in London, last year, the runners of the 25th annual Shakespearian 20K marathon pinned me up againt Big Ben for ten minutes while they huffed past. What do you do when you are caught between a clock and a bard race?
