    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.

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

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.

Why is it that you can wait ages for a bus and then three come at once?

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).

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 ?

Pi, to go with the turkey.

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

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

NO they only get qualio.


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

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?

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

No worse than they would feel.

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

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

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 ! :eek:", 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 ?
