Depends upon what your definition of exISt "is"!


If you spend your time, "Running around" what have you circled?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The word "insane" in your next national consensus survey form.

Now where did THAT come from?
 
Let's say a priest, a rabbi, and Richard Nixon walk into a bar...wait, I forgot where I was going with this. Anyway, if you carpet the entire state of Florida, how long would it take the Harlem Globetrotters to vacuum it?

Uhmm, the dictionary, an english one, I think!

Why didn't zk4586 answer the quention before asking his quention??

(Eh, eh, let's see you answer that one, eh!?? a reeeeeal toughee!)

we posted that at about the same time, so I didn't see it until I already posted. I think that counts as a stupid question for you . Does this mean I have to ask another stupid question? How about this: How many stupid questions would a stupid question guy ask if a stupid question guy could ask questions?
 
Not as many stupid questions as a non-stupid (that's sort of beast) one could ask.

What will happen when you run out of stupid questions?
 
When you run out of stupid quetions and stupid ansers, you will be thoroughly stuped.

Probably stale bread.

Do you think that if when cars were first starting to come out the public officials of the time had chosen not to make nice smooth roads for them to drive on but rather chose to invest in research to make very rugged all terain vehicles so that the could go anywhere they wanted and not have to worry about roads, would we still have traffic jams.

YES!

Is'nt it the manner of knowing that it is a quention, by the indication of a quention mark.

Somewhere.

Well yes.

Does Parson's look like an idiot criticizing my bad grammar for not using a question mark when he in fact blatantly misused his apostrophe when he spelled "is'nt?" (note the question mark properly placed inside the quotation marks. suck on that for good grammar!)

No your just dreaming that it is.

Who conducted the first interview ever?

No, 'cause climbhi aint the first interviewer. He can't give no "first interviews".

What's the point of using double negatives, like "aint no"?
 
Originally asked by Mentat

What's the point of using double negatives, like "aint no"?

It allows a negative, to be negated, which entails the permitting of the cancelation of the redundancy that is the manner of attempting to negatively state a postitive, in a negative manner, that is negated, as to be positive in it's result!

Does a "double positive" (Is is) result in a negation?

No, it results in a stutter.

But they have, they just don't know that yet!, cause no ones explained/told them that! (yet)

Yep, it definitely becomes two strands of AND.

Why aren't people posting many stupid quetions anymore?

Oh! That's because this is the NON humor time of year, season of seriousness for everyone, (Except Extreme Intellectuals of course!) having to do with the Sun having crossed the equator, and the rising tides, on the week during easter, have this peculiar quantum affectation upon the Lobulus Humorosia in the cranial anatomy with the resultant depletion in Humorosiac nerotransmitters to the point that all 'regular' intellect people (Sorry bout that, you know who you are!) suffering something, akin to a 'spring fever', that precludes the emission of anything even remotely funny, for about a couple of days, or until the moons rotates one third of it's monthly circle while the dust is settling.

Is it because 7-8-9, that 6 was actually afraid of 7?
(a septophobic?, no, numerophobic?, no, a triskadecaphobic minus a sextaphobic, no, wait, I didn't go yet, I have to ask a quention? what quention? where is that quention? here?, no there?, no wait? I'll get it?, ugh!?)

Why do mathematicians use greek letters?
 
They ran out of Roman letters. They ran out of Greek letters, too. They have incorporated Old English/Germanic, Russian, and Middle Eastern letters. They just made up a lot of their symbols.

How long before scientists will start using Oriental symbols?

42 years, 42 weeks, 42 minutes, and 42 seconds from now.

Why can't one change the past? (Stupid quetion taken from Alexander Hartegen, of Time Machine - good movie, btw).
 
Because history + science = unstable explosive mixture.

What is the chemical reason for that?
 
Originally asked by Mentat

Because it is 42 years, 42 weeks, 42 minutes, and 42 seconds to late!

If when you were about to flatulate, you change course, direction, and speed, and eruct, (No-sp?) does that mean that what you have now done is to flatu-early?? HUH??

Flatu-earliness. (See Mr. Robin Parson's [stupid] answer).

If flatulate can be taken apart thus, then what does it mean to "flatu"?
