The Question is What Is The Question?
-
quite probably. I would also have completely rAndoM caPitalIzatiOn if i was writing longhand rather than typing, amirite?
Can we make a pact never to have a topic requiring random capitalization?
-
can we agree that we make no promises?
-
probably, but aren't you going to actually say it rather than just asking the question?
-
-
How can I say it without asking a question?
-
@arantor: if you're so smart can't you figure it out?
@Zecc: i asked a question! can you say the same?
-
What makes you think I'm smart at all, let alone 'so smart'?
-
well you are a member of Animalia Chordata Mamalia Primatae Hominidae Hominini Homo Sapiens Sapiens, aren't you?
-
Animalia Chordata Mamalia Primatae Hominidae Hominini Homo Sapiens Sapiens
I have no idea?
-
hint: are you human?
-
You think I have a meaningful answer for that question?
-
i do think so, you wouldn't want to disappoint me would you?
-
No?
-
and?
-
-
Can we make a pact never to have a topic requiring random capitalization?
Would it become an exception to my no muting policy here at TDWTF?
-
-
Does @arantor look human to you?
hmm... couldn't that just be a rare skin condition?
Klatu barada necktie?
are you sure i didn't just say "what is this?"
-
Who cares if I'm human?
-
I do?
right?
pretty sure i do....?
-
How about it this way: if labels don't matter, you never have to worry about pretending to live up to them?
-
...
Why do you claim you are not smart and then come our with a question like that‽ do you know how long it's going to take me to come up with a proper answer‽
/me is put firmly in her place by @arantor
-
Because I reject being labelled by other peoples' definitions and would prefer to be just be who I am and let others take me as they find me?
-
and you claim that isn't a smart decision?
<begin OT>
rediculous! inconceivable!/me gives @arantor the
i am smrt
badgehere, you need this more than i do.
<end OT>
-
hmm... couldn't that just be a rare skin condition?
Wouldn't it need to be more than a skin condition?
are you sure i didn't just say "what is this?"
Didn't you just say that right there ?
-
Perhaps I'm claiming that I don't like being 'called smart', but not disagreeing that by some standards I really am?
Maybe it's also that there are still too few people I trust when they compliment me?
-
if labels don't matter, you never have to worry about pretending to live up to them?
Won't communication suffer if we start throwing out labels?
-
Perhaps I'm claiming that I don't like being 'called smart', but not disagreeing that by some standards I really am?
Is humility no longer a virtue? Are you certain that's what you're doing there?
-
Won't communication suffer if we start throwing out labels?
Did I say to throw them out or did I say simply that like the points in UK gameshows, they don't matter?
-
Are you sure I'm claiming humility? If I don't even know, how could I expect you to?
-
Did I say to throw them out or did I say simply that like the points in UK gameshows, they don't matter?
Do I have to stay within your prescribed discussion boundaries?
<or read the thread carefully enough to get context?>
-
Why the hell would you even have to ask?
-
Maybe it's also that there are still too few people I trust when they compliment me?
you don't trust me?
-
-
-
Did you realise you were talking to a person that pretty much from the off here self-described himself as TRWTF and that only recently has been able to take himself seriously?
-
We all grow up at different speeds, don't we?
-
why do you think i would care about that?
You are you and not me and that is good because otherwise that would be weird and i think i have had a bit too much caffeine today as i had a point there but i have forgotten what it was do you like cats i like cats but not the ones that are all like imma scratch your eyes out but the cuddly ones are ok and it's ok if you don't take yourself seriously because if you do then you won't have as much fun, do you know what i am saying?
-
Because I'm a big daft silly thing?
-
a big adorable daft silly thing, yes. and we're OK with that, right?
-
As long as blakeyrat isn't required to agree? (yes, we're good :))
-
@blakeyrat can agree if he wants to, but i thought he hated furries? (our avatars)
-
Oscar the Grouch is a furry now?
-
well he's covered with what appears to be fur, so wouldn't that fall into the definition of Furry, at least to the ignorant?
-
Isn't Oscar the Grouch simply a grouch?
-
He might be, but are you? (i don't think so!)
-
Isn't mentioning @sam, @eviltrout, @neil, @codinghorror and @riking the same as telling them?
Do you think they still come here?
-
Would me saying 'I was a grouch when I picked the avatar but I'm better now' fix it?
Should I change my avatar to something slightly more up to date?
-
Did you not see Sam grace us with his presence earlier today?
-
Isn't Oscar the Grouch a type (Grouch) of Monster?
