Many things

Post by Ryan Sepulvado »

What practical value can humans derive from music?

What is infinity? (not as the definition, but rather how infinity can be conceptualized)

What should a human do?

What is a probable cause of our species' extinction?

This is a test.

Oh, really? Oooo, I love a good test. Let's see how I do:
What practical value can humans derive from music?
Mathematical insight and emotional escapism.
What is infinity? (not as the definition, but rather how infinity can be conceptualized)
If I answered other it is infinitude, I'd be wrong.
What should a human do?
There is no "should" in what humans do, there is only what they do (and their own subjective "shoulds").
What is a probable cause of our species' extinction?
Evolution - and it's not a matter of probability.
This is a test.
So, can I still have children or not?

If what you mean is will I be bothered by your having children, the answer is no. Otherwise, I do not know whether or not you're capable. Do you have functioning reproductive organs?

Have you taken the test yourself? I'd like to see whether you got the right answers.

I don't care what you'd like to see; I don't have any reason to answer those questions, or to test myself in the manner that I am testing others.

The purpose of the test was not to have the questions answered. The results were what they were - perfect. This world is mine. That should be obvious. Am being gorgeous now.

I'm giddy. What are you?

Suspecting that you are inebriated.

Yes, in a way we are all in our own world...

Sure Mr. Swift - just make sure that you cook them thoroughly to reduce the chance of contamination. You may continue to have children until the potato famine is over, you spudly man, you.
