i will post new questions every day, but of course there must be rules :O

standard rules just to put em out there:
1. posts must be 7 words long and be at least somewhat relevant to topic
2.Spamming,trolling,flaming, targeting, or just being a general d!ck will not be tolerated.
3.You can go on Tangents, but PG-13 please
4. You are in no way obligated to answer every question, but no being choppy ( i.e post answer to 1 question followed by answer to next question in a double post). This is just procrastinating, GIT'R DONE.

First questions:
1.Have you EVER used a landline telephone?
2.Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
3. Dogs or cats?
4.Chuck Norris Vs. Mr. T .... epic showdown? the Victor?

4.Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

I could never exist there.... I have thought of it.
5.Why is it called "after dark" when it is really "After light"???
Cause the person was noctournal and didn't know the difference
6.Who do you save when you see an endangered animal eating an endangered plant?
The plant. The plant feeds the animal, and the animal can keep existing in the plant still exists.
7.If a word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know?

Well if it was in the dictionary, and that is a list of the words and stuff, it wouldn't be misspelled. In my opinion of course.
8. if pro and con are opposites, then wouldn't Congress be the opposite of [i]progress[i]?????

WEEEEEELLLLLLLL progress is like.... a state of being. like I am progressing with my point. Congress is a group of people, and they arent considered a state of being... And I think that if they were to be opposites using the PROgress and CONgress you would have to make them the same type of thing. like Congress would hae to be a state of being as well, or Progress would have to be a group of people or something like that.
Maybe this will make it clearer....
Someone says, Lets weigh the pros and cons.
The pros would be something DESCRIBING the GOOD in a situation, and the cons would also DESCRIBE, but they would describe the bad in a situation. They both describe, and can legitly be called opposites.

A theaurus is for verbs u n00b! Dictionary is for nouns, adjectives, conjunctions, etc.


A thesaurus list words according to similarity in meaning.. Synonym and sometimes antonyms. Thanks for giving me a good chuckle.

Not that I can think of.
5.Why is it called "after dark" when it is really "After light"???

Because it indicates that the time in question occurred after sunset. Either way could be correct though I suppose.
6.Who do you save when you see an endangered animal eating an endangered plant?

Neither. I create a culinary masterpiece using both the animal and the plant.
7.If a word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know?

Other dictionaries XD (or you could just ask me)

Actually a thesaurus is for synonyms, antonyms, and homonyms. Dictionaries provide definitions.

8. if pro and con are opposites, then wouldn't Congress be the opposite of [i]progress[i]?????

Sorry for DP, forgot to answer this one:

8. if pro and con are opposites, then wouldn't Congress be the opposite of [i]progress[i]?????


It would be if Congress weren't a proper noun. By this reasoning then Andy would be the opposite of Ndy. Your grammar logic is fail.

true but that is the origin of all the matter.

but where did that come from? did it just suddenly appear from nothing?

and Uno more question:

If the universe is constantly expanding, then what is it expanding into? How can nothing exist??? ( note: on the blank area between galaxies and the such there's such thing as dark matter)

Well I think the universe at the edge is turning into jelly. Since jelly is weak it is drawn back towards the center of the universe. There the jelly is put under extreme stess which causes it to turn back into universe stuff. This also causes the universe to get a little bigger every time jelly goes back to universe stuff.

One of two things are happening.

1. The universe is expanding by the planets moving to make the universe bigger.

2. The universe is just weird like that and is making "more" matter.

Nothing can exist in a vacuum.

Yes there is such thing as dark matter.

Sure, however these purposes are subjective and based solely on our personal desires, goals, and values.

2.Why are we here? why does anything exist???


We are here because chemistry and evolutionary mechanisms exist and worked together to create life. That life evolved in response to environmental stimuli and after billions of generations traits evolved which we now possess.

As for if anything exists, I suppose it does, at least to enough of a degree to allow independent observations of reality to coincide closely enough to allow for common understanding.

3. What is being???


I suppose that depends on which definition of 'being' you are referring to. However I would wager that you are aiming this at our concept of being alive, of existing. In that aspect then 'being' would be having the properties which we define as giving us the status of being alive.

4. Do you have to know pain to know pleasure???


Absolutely not. Your nerves and brain process pain and pleasure similarly, however you do not need a previous understanding of one for your body to recognize the other.

1. is there a purpose to us as humans ( no 'yes' or 'no' answers, explain yourself or lack thereof an answer)


I actually researched and found that humans aren't mammals. mammals adapt and evolve to be able to live in the current environment. humans move to one area, stay until all the natural resources are used up, then move on to the next. there is one organism that also follows this pattern: a virus. mankind is a disease.

2.Why are we here? why does anything exist???


Purely chance and a bit of random luck.

3. What is being???


Well, if you follow random women home, you are being a pervert.
But I guess it's a living thing that has, or can develop, the ability to act or function independently, according to a google search xP

4. Do you have to know pain to know pleasure???


nope, I don't know what it's like to be dead but I know what it's like to be alive, you don't need to know one to know the other unless you are looking to make a comparison.

No.

What is commitment in a relationship?


I don't even know what's a commitment is anyways.

[quote]if a man born blind, and able to distinguish by touch between a cube and a globe, were made to see, could he now tell by sight which was the cube and which the globe, before he touched them?

No, but if you tell the blind man which is a cube and which is a globe, and he touched both, he'll know which one.
