    Stupid
AI Thread 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.

How long do you think it will take for this thread to reach 2000 replies?

I'm going to make my best guess...ballpark, I'd say...about 499 posts long (including this one).

I've never ansered my own quetion, so I'll take at shot at this, just for kicks (or for some other reason, you decide) : My guess is that there's divine intervention, of the feminine kind.

Zoob went traveling with the gray space aliens again. In his frame of reference they are only going to be gone for six months, but those space ships go pretty darn fast (close to light speed, he told me once).

How old will we be when Zoob gets back?

As old as his twin, Noob, who'll be ancient, compared to Zoob.

I don't want to get ancient :cry:

Wait, all I got to do is build me one of those light-speed spaceships, right ?

Antioxidants prolong life and they may be easier to work with than light-speed ships.

How do antioxidants create wormholes?

Ivan Seeking said:

The curvatures of the different dimensions are regulated by a Universal Fermi Ocean of virtual particles known as free radicals. Antioxidants destroy some of these free radicals, thereby causing previously curled up dimensions to unfurl, creating a wormhole.

Anthropologists ask themselves that question all the time. (I think this question is on my Anthro midterm next week.)

They had existed from the 12th Century but they got fed up of having to find coke-bottles so gave up in the 16th Century.

Originally, most children wanted meaningful cacti. But the process of natural selection eliminated them.

I've always loved climbing trees.Whenever I see a tree, I don't think "nature", "shelter" or "data structure". I think "climb" - that's my Rorschach reaction to the image of a tree. However, a couple of years ago, when I saw this giant cactus in the desert, I didn't have that impulse.

I wonder why ?

Painful, eh...didn't think of that ! :confused: I wonder why...it now seems painfully obvious to me.

So I guess that was a case of "Anser a stupid quetion with a stupid quetion."

I'm just looking at my wallet (you know, gauging how long my lafe savings will continue to provide me nourishment) and for the first time, I've noticed a little inscription in the corner saying "Remo".

Anyone seen that amazing movie about the dude that gets trained by a Korean martial atrs expert, to do things like dodge bullets, walk on quicksand and tour the Statue of Liberty ?

It could be : "To be or not to be ?"

It always bugged me that Shakespeare called the above quote a quetion, even though he did not put a quetion mark, at the end of it. :confused:

Oh, hang on a sec there...all right, I've just got an email from The Bob. He says that he's having difficulty connecting to PF. He wants me to say the following on his behalf, so I quote :

To be.

What would happen if a question mark symbol was the same as an exclamation mark symbol?

I am not sure if it is "hiding" as much as it fluctuating in an out of an unperceivable state. When an entity exists in cyberspace (like PF) it isn't bound by the traditional dementions we are used to perceiving and processing in our human brains, and it can decide at any given moment how and where it would like to exist in which dementions, and only people with sufficent dementia will be able to recognize it. (ever see a homeless guy talking to himself and think he was crazy - nope! he's justing posting a message on PF). Ivan explained this whole thing to me once but it involved very complicated science concepts like wormholes and antioxidants, so I did not understand it well.

The famous Algerian physicist, D'avemath Yoozeband referred to the aether filling the mirror-gap as the "Space Between", while independently, the half-Arabic psychoanalyst Mahik al Jahaksan referred to this same entity as the "Man in the Mirrors".

This is the only known debate of this magnitude happening between members of two different fields, both containing the letters : P, H, S, Y and C.

Why is the fight between Miss Cleo and Professor Landow (over the true nature of ghosts) not relevant in this context ?

No, it doesn't. They just want you to take out the trash.


Why won't they take out the trash?
 
  • #1,524
Why should we, when we can just get The Bob to do it?

When I was younger and I worked for a pizza delivery service, I got a call to bring 3 pizza pies to Miss Cleo's house. When I got to her porch, I couldn't decide whether or not to ring the doorbell. I mean, she must know I was on the porch, right, 'cause she's psychic and all. If I rang the doorbell, she might be insulted and put some bad juju on me. But the protocol of our delivery service was to always ring the doorbell. I was between a rock and a hard place. I had to make a decision - the pizzas were getting cold. What do you suppose I did?

I would take the luminocity and the intensity of light , which is lit in her bedroom. Then, i would calculate the average amount of brightness in the bedroom (while the person is sleeping) and then compare it with the instantaneous luminocity and intensity of light that i measured. Which apparently, implies the state of Miss cleo. i.e, she is sleeping or not. If the result turns out to be "not sleeping", then i would ring the door bell.

But what if the result turned out to be "sleeping"?

If the best way to convince
a fool that it is wrong, is to
give it exactly what it desires.
The best way to handle
a fool that’s right is:

A. Kill it quick before it multiplies.
B. Encourage it, follow it, and worship it in
the hope of corrupting it.
C. Get out of the way and let it be.
D. Give it exactly what it desires in the
hope of convincing it it’s wrong.

Thanks, The Bob, for explaining the format to the new folks.

Some local yokel wanted to have hot milk sandwiches. So in an act of inspiration, he took his cow, Daisy, and stuck her on a spit-roast, with slices of bread underneath. As the flames licked up, he started milking Daisy, but as all the turning and churning occured, what came out of Daisy's udders ended up as Camenbert on burnt bread. Which doesn't have quite a ring to it. so was renamed.

It's all in the name. You can't expect to whoop a hero with Dr. name or a Green Goblinesque name. It has to be one word with MEANING.

Would you class the teenage mutant ninja turtles as superheroes or regular heroes?
