    Is it true that Asian woman have slanty pussy?
    No. That'll be 5 quid to my paypal account.
    When is the next mass-extinction event going to happen on earth
    Apparently according to some it's happening as we speak. More species are dying out because of human interference than at any time in the last few million years.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    I would like to know what the next big thing will be. As in what would be the best thing to invest in. Something which will make me a lot of money.

    We really are f'cukers us humans! I'd just like for humanity to be able to store away all it's accumulated knowledge in some bunker somewhere with a sample of 100,000 carefully selected people from around the world, for when something like a meteorite is destined to hit the earth- it could prove difficult re-accumulating that knowledge without the luxury of cheap energy (oil) available to us a second time around.

    I don't believe you, whats the speed of light? 300000000 (ish ?) meters per... what?

    thats actually a wild misinterpretation to help us three dimensional types comprehend.

    its complicated and I'm typing on a phone but short version:

    the speed of light is in fact a conversion factor, not a unit in its own right. time and distance can be measured in the same units , I.e terms of distance. we just decided years ago to use different units when we didn't know better. a good analogy would be if we always used meters for measuring width and feet for measuring length. its the same, measuring the same thing in two directions but using different units. if we did that lots of equations would start throwing up this weird constant of about 3.

    we wouldn't call this the speed of width because its easy to comprehend the similarities between length and width, but time is exactly the same.

    you can be perfectly correct in saying you had to wait for thousands of miles for the bus to come.

    thats called co-extrusion.

    a narrow pipe inside a wider pipe. the narrow one squirting figs, the bigger one squirting dough. they probably come out round and then a machine cuts and stamps them to shape

    Who came up with names for colours? Was it like a group sitting around a table with all the colours in front of them.

    Leader : Come on lads we need names for these. Try this one...
    Mr A : Griffinite
    Mr B : Goulash
    Mr A : Grenada
    Mr B : Green
    Mr A : Genitals
    Leader : Whoa, whoa, go back one.
    Mr B : Green ?
    Leader : Perfect Green it is. Now try this one...
    Mr A : Yehellooo! What the fúck is that, that's bright...
    Leader : Perfect, yellow it is.....

    What was The Bloop, an unidentified sound recorded underwater that's louder than any recorded animal sound.



  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 468 ✭✭J K


    The etymological root of the word colour was an object or something that had or was that colour.
    Also they have some figs and they rap some pastry or dough around it...wheres the mystery?
