Why is Liddy without a PM?
Because I don't have a radio. OK, that probably needs explaining. You can't have a PM without an AM, and if you don't have a radio, you don't have AM or FM.

What is the point of Mini-golf?
I thought it was Volkswagon that made the Golf.

Should New Zealand become a republic?
Yes, but like any event in Kansas it'll take 20 years before the rest of the world finds out about it.

Does Aragorn chop off the Mos' head without provocation?
No. There's a deleted scene that didn't make it into the EE where MOS alludes Gilraen was French. Personally, I think Aragorn's reaction was quite restrained.

Women say they want a sensitive man, but that's just a load of guff isn't it?
It depends on whether there is a spider in the bathroom at the time.

What was God thinking when he designed the reproductive system?
Let's put it in front of them to keep reminding them to have sex.

Is a diet too high in salt worse than a diet too high in sugar?
Depends if you're a salmon or not.

Why aren't the dinosaurs mentioned in the Bible?
Because history is always written by the winners.

If love is blind - why is lingerie so popular?

:mrgreen: great to see this

Since cats always land on their feet and jelly bread always lands jelly-side down, what happens if you tie jelly bread to the back of a cat?

And another one (especially for Jae and Ags )

If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes?

How many Mathematicians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

What do you get when you multiply six by nine?

Why are all the smilies green?

Why did this board get named board77 when I was both born in '77 and wore number 77 in football, but was never part of the naming process?

How do you make a Rob Roy?

How do you make a Rob Roy?

You find a guy, ask his name, and if he says, "Roy" then you just nick his trainers.

I read the "official" explanation of the name, but I'm not sure I buy it...

Now why would I lie about my own stupidity???

.. thanks all of you .. i needed this

Love may be blind, but sex isn't.

A sticky situation with Animal Rights supporters.

If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes?
In Poland you can be a South Pole or a North Pole, with no discrimination between them. In fact, for every North Pole there is a South Pole. Both are equally attractive or repellant. In Holland however, calling them Holes would make a black person from Holland more attractive than the rest, and they hate racial discrimination over there.

Mathematicians don't screw - they just know how to multiply.

The number of people regularly on TORC two years from now.

Why are all the smilies green?
Celebrating festivities gets earlier and earlier each year. Xmas decorations were up a full month before Xmas actually arrived. In this particular case, we obviously have an avid St. Patrick's Day supporter.

77? Well it's better than being born in 69 because that would be a mouthful.

How do you make a Rob Roy?
I've always found the perfect Rob Roy to be:

1¾ oz. scotch, ¾ oz. sweet vermouth, 3 oz. vodka, 1 dash (optional) Angostura bitters, 6 oz. orange juice, cracked ice.

Put cracked ice into a mixing glass, add scotch and vermouth, add a dash of bitters if desired, stir twice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Poor it down the sink, add vodka, add orange.

I wouldn't say anyone lied about it, I just refuse to buy any "official" stories. It's a matter of principle... plus the coincidences with my own 77s makes me think someone's out to get me.

To get back on topic...

IS someone out to get me?

Does that method of mixing drinks work with other recipes as well, Lidless?

How many of those Rob Roy's would you say is safe to drink in an evening?

If catnip worked on people like it does on cats, would it be illegal?

How many cats does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Why do people drive on parkways and park in driveways?

If Bill Murray had been in LOTR, what part would he have played?

If LOTR was a musical, given that Iavas and I seemingly agree on all things musicals, would we have agreed about it entirely?

If Iavas and I agreed on anything about LOTR, would the universe, in fact, still function normally?

Is it a bad thing that I'm coming up with stupid questions rather than actually get any work done?

Finding this thread here is like finding a Philly cheesesteak in Amsterdam.

Is someone out to get you what? Cigarettes? A newspaper? Be more specific.

I wouldn't know. I don't mix my drinks. I just stick with vodka and orange.

How many of those Rob Roy's would you say is safe to drink in an evening?
Difficult to count them, because after six or so, I start to see doubles.

If catnip worked on people like it does on cats, would it be illegal?
It would be called paw'n.

How many cats does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
An impossible situation. There's not enough room to swing a cat in a lightbulb, so there'll be no room for two of them to swing.

Why do people drive on parkways and park in driveways?
Already answered in the TORC thread. Well, Americans drive on the wrong side of the road anyway. The left side is the right side and the right side is the wrong side. I wouldn’t have expected anything less from them.

If Bill Murray had been in LOTR, what part would he have played?
Gollum.

Frodo outside Cirith Ungol: Where do these stairs go?
Gollum: They go up.
Ghostbusters

If LOTR was a musical, given that Iavas and I seemingly agree on all things musicals, would we have agreed about it entirely?
As ever, the two of you would have made a song and dance about it.

If Iavas and I agreed on anything about LOTR, would the universe, in fact, still function normally?
Has the universe *ever* functioned normally? I'd have Paris Hilton as Exhibit #1 for the prosecution.

Is it a bad thing that I'm coming up with stupid questions rather than actually get any work done?
I know for sure it's a bad thing I'm answering them under similar conditions.

It brings you to tears?

When?

Where?

Nin

Well you've been asking me for years now. I might as well get it over with...

When?
Tomorrow night.

Where?
Your place.

Next time be a little less subtle.

Why wait until tomorrow?

Nin

Why wait until tomorrow?
Recovering from jet lag. You'd want me to be up for it, wouldn't you? Also you have to take into account the time difference - you'd expect a couple of hours, and I'd be impressed with three minutes.

And yet the question still intrigues me. If a question still needs to be answered, is it not appropriate to ask it again?

In what conditions would it NOT be bad?

If in fact, it is the funtion of the universe to not function normally, is this normal?

What happens if you mix electricity, vodka, an apple pie, and the entire cast of Titanic with a large rum and coke?

Is it wrong that I think it's not just a coincidence that the three LOTR EE's run in a total of 11 hours and 6 minutes?

What's the 25th digit of pi?

Why do physicists think it's ok to use imaginary number in their equations?

Why do Mathematicians come up with names like "imaginary" to describe clearly real things?

Will it make people think I write better software if I have a magazine entitled "Better Software" sitting on my desk?

Similarly, if I had an issue of Playboy on my desk, would it imply that I actually was a Playboy?

I'd expect twelve full hours, of course....







That's what a full triology viewing with exclusive Lidless comment would take, wouldn't it?
