Did I nearly kill this thread with that question?

No, but you dealt it a horrid blow to the head with that terrible misspelling.

I just got another AOL CD in the mail. Guess what I've got planned for it ?

You'll probably gush, "Oh, goody, another one this weeK!" and put it in your collection - which is now 4,531 strong - all lined up around the top of your roof (and the adjacent apartment roofs, as well), and when the number reaches 5,000 - which should happen sometime before the end of the year - you plan to kick the first one in this enormously intricate row of disks you've created and that will send the rest into a snaking, domino-like fall, which, when flat on the roof, will create a reflection - because of the low location of the sun at this time - that will knock out all communication satelites currently circling this side of the planet.

Is it roofs or rooves?

Depends on the mood you're in.

Why is the plural of "goose" "geese", but the plural of "moose" isn't "meese"?

Just the same way as the plural of "mouse" is mice but the plural of "house" isn't "hice".

If love is "blind", why do people fall in love at first "sight"?

Because blind sight is just like faith healing, magical.

Why are pancake houses so comodius?

 

[mattmns]

I am going to guess that you meant commodious? Pankcake houses are so commodious because after a large stack of pancakes you need to loosen your belt, and push back your chair.

Why are pancakes soooo good?

 

[honestrosewater]

Why are pancakes soooo good?

Strict moral upbringing.

It would have to be a very small bottle, I think.

You won't believe me that the basic rule of it all
is the law of lever. But believe you me it is!

I must say I am impressed by it all and I have been waiting along time for another long winded answer to something for a while but you did not leave a question.

I mean what is the point in answering this thread if you do not leave a question?

Most amazing and confusing question ever :D

what's 2+2

Ask it to a random person and they will stumble in confusion for a few seconds :D Works every time ;) (except in math class, the students are ready)

Any other newbie that does not get the point of this thread. You answer the last question in the last post and then ask one yourself.

At what temperature will a piece of ham burst into flame?

 

[rachmaninoff]

According to a reclusive amazonian tribe who have constructed an entire measuring system on the physical and chemical properties of dead pigs - the answer is: unity (1).

(Edit: then again it might depend on the species of dead pig in question...)

Because a Tou-Can.

How come the New Year is celebrated at the end of the Year if it is so new?

It is meant to trick your mind into thinking the wrong way round. It is very clever.

Look at post above this one for next question.

We could go on this route all night. It is there so that words are not in any old order (although this can happen in Russia).

Fat chance ! You'd sooner compose a piano concerto than solve a millenium problem.

Okay, so I'm wandering about in PF-land and suddenly I'm ambushed by a stealthy member trying to rob me of my posts (I know this, from all the threatening PMs I've gotten from an unknown sender). Just as I turn around, I feel a blow to the back of my head followed by ...nothing.

Whodunnit ?

[remcook]

i could tell, but I'd have to kill you

does it ever stop?

 

[hypnagogue]

Pi, to go with the turkey.

Assume a turkey is a sphere. Would you want to eat it?

 

[honestrosewater]

Only after it stops.

Only after I eat it.

If qualia were a joke, would the zombies get it?

 

[franznietzsche]

NO they only get qualio.


Whats wrong with this guy: :!) ? Is he diseased?

 

[hypnagogue]

If qualia were a joke, would the zombies get it?

It is logically impossible for qualia to be a joke; that is to say, there are no metaphysically possible worlds wherein qualia can be jokes.

If zombies could tell jokes, would we feel any worse about dismembering them and then setting the pieces on fire?

 

[honestrosewater]

Whats wrong with this guy :!) ? Is he diseased?

Yes, he has herpes simplex keratitis- and you can guess how he got it.

If zombies could tell jokes, would we feel any worse about dismembering them and then setting the pieces on fire?

No worse than they would feel.

I can't possibly answer such an impurely represented question.

What's the over/under on how long the "Should we eat meat?" thread lasts?

Until it ends- over someone's dead body, under suspicious circumstances.

Has anyone ever actually seen a chicken cross a road?

 

[Gokul43201]

Has anyone ever actually seen a chicken cross a road?

I have. I was walking down the street (not really on the street, but you get what I mean) when I noticed Colonel Sanders on the other side, greedily eyeing something crossing the road towards him. Stupid chicken !

Feeling an urge to rescue the chicken from the grim fate that was drooling at it, I decided to try and distract the Colonel.

"Colonel, there's a bear behind you ! ", I screamed. No effect.

Next I tried, "Fire in the hole", but that didn't work either.

After several such unsuccessful attempts, during which time the chicken had made little forward progress, I gave up and asked the Colonel, "Why did the chicken cross the road ?". Immediately the Colonel's head snapped in my direction, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

What did the Colonel say next ?

 

[hypnagogue]

What did the Colonel say next ?

He exclaimed effusively, "I'm lickin' this gross toad because it let's me see God!", whereupon he turned and went on his way with a positively giggly Ronald McDonald.

If God were a chicken, could he create a road so long that he couldn't cross it?

 

[honestrosewater]

It is logically impossible for God to be a chicken; that is to say, there are no metaphysically possible worlds wherein God can be a chicken.

Who wants ice?

 

[franznietzsche]

Not me, they don't give you ice in hospitals so it must be bad for you.

They give you bedpans in hospitals not toilets. Does this mean toilets are unhealthy and we all should use bedpans on a daily basis?

 

[madcat11]

Don't 'should yourself up' on that one - when it comes to bodily functions, it's a black and white concept - yes/no - right/wrong. Tile, sinks, commodes - all black and white. Yes, indeed.


However, when we have a little temperature, are we a little unhealthy?

 

[franznietzsche]

I don't have little things so i wouldn't know.

Am I allowed to respond to myself in order to save this thread?

 

[The Bob]

Am I allowed to respond to myself in order to save this thread?

Yes. Many times I have done the same but people are just not taking an interested in it anymore. I think this thread has a future but people are just being lazy and giving short answers, which means it is boring to read and boring to write in. It needs to be more exciting but Jimmy P and others of that hilarious status are not posting here at all. Really do need some funnier people to post here because then it might take off again.

The Bob (2004 ©)

Many times, after writing a particularly boring reply post, I've sat, staring at the screen, thinking, "this will never be responded to," and have longed to reply to myself - a thing I do in my thoughts, or when I'm alone, regularly (meaning, of course, that either I am thinking or alone but not both...) - but would forgo that action thinking, "that would be dumb," only to realize that - NO - it would not be dumb at all - and, even if it were, well, this is an 'ask a stupid quetion' forum anyway, and how could that sort of thing be incorrect when - in fact - it actually HAS been done just this page(!) so it is now an acceptable procedure and - YES - this could be MY forum - no boring or lazy people, asking and answering stupid quetions - only me, yes me, asking and answering myself - carrying on for pages and pages on end, a veritable self-love-fest for my eyes alone!

Am I cool or what - no, wait - why does cool, have a redface and why is redface, pink?

It's actually cooler to be red (just ask any ex-communist author...).


Why is it that 'what' makes sense, but so does 'tahw'?

 

[franznietzsche]

Why is it that 'what' makes sense, but so does 'tahw'?

because 'thaw' is what in an alien tongue from the planet of acixelsyd, which for some reason all humans seem to understand.


Should we worry about when the scixelsyd will invade earth, possibly, as they would say, gniyortsed us all?
