- Well, for one, you'd have a fairly tricky job trying to REACH my computer. The only actual network my system is on is the in-base system. I access the internet through a completely separate bog-standard computer. Also, should you somehow manage to reach my system's wiring and attempt to intrude through there, be prepared for an exceptionally large shock at the first and tiniest error.

- That's something you should ask a linguist friend of mine. He might be able to theorise a reason or two. *OOC Note: Yes, I'm a linguist, so hey, I'm fielding this one. I have no actual sources or data to go on, so this is all pure hypothesis, but I suspect that initially the pronunciation of the word was "co-lo-nell", if you will, and that eventually due to spoken language it metamorphosised into "cornell". If you consider the sound, it's not actually a great stretch to assume that it's a form of linguistic change brought about by repeated use of a word in spoken language. Well, that's my nerd-moment over. Back to the doctor.*
- None in particular that I can come to think of. Light hayfever, but that's pretty much it. Nothing incapacitating, if you're considering probing my weaknesses.
what do you think of my cup holder idea for the laser cannon with a removable rocket launcher?

- It's one of those strange little linguistic quirks. Though I believe people equated the storm of sound to a bomb going off, and thus decided to use the same sentence construct for alarms going off. *OOC Note: Utter bollocks, my linguist self has no idea :P*Quote:

- Because the people making the brand name were idiots.
- Never heard the song, don't care.
- Because you get your food and don't have to get out of the car for it. You then drive through.
- Because practically every one of those brands is pretty much lying.
- To torture those of you who can't take the impact of a ball, I suspect. Purely for that.
- D'you know, I've never spent time looking into that? I would assume that it would be the movie itself, and everything around it is additional fluff.
- Very curious and exceptionally specific talent: Able to build a radio out of anything, but sod-all else.
- I don't know. Possibly because pointing to the wrist has become a near-universal sign for "what's the time" whereas pointing to one's crotch can indicate anything from "I need a piss" to "sex?" to the endless internet classic "penis. I'M FUCKING HILARIOUS!". I hate the internet sometimes.
- Nope. The outlet has electrical output, which charges the devices attached to it. You're just thinking the wrong way 'round.
- Not the foggiest, although the mental image of scrubbing does seem to include a downwards motion and the mental image of washing an upwards one. Blast it, now I'll be thinking about this all day. Did the mental image get inspired by the specific word choice, or did the word choice get inspired by the mental image?
- It's a comic world. It doesn't have to make sense.
- Who knows. I would think that those who became blind at a later age CAN and those who were blind since birth CAN'T. That's just personal supposition though.
- Because the cars CAN go that fast. It'd be rather silly if you were speeding and the speed dial were just stuck on 100, with the driver going "I'm going... well, 100+"
- It's called "polite euphemism". What they mean is "We don't want our dog to have offspring in any way, and be more calm. Thus, we deem it to be broken now, and once the operation is done, it will be fixed." Any questions?
- I suppose so, yes. It's one of those crude terms that developed at some point, no idea when.
- I haven't a clue. I'm not very up-to-date on my nursery rhymes.
- Well, it'd be a bit of a shame if the patient contracted something nasty while he'd be slowly dying of whatever poison they used. That would be IMMORAL. And poor practice of the doctor involved! Also, how do you know that they sterilise the needles for that? I, for one, have never actually witnessed any executions that weren't part of a fairly bad film.
- Because the doors can't be picked up and stolen easily, but they got sick of forever replacing the pens.
- In the case of some subcultures I know of, the answer here is yes. Overall, I'm inclined to say 'no'.
- See my answer on the Goofy question. It's a comic world. It doesn't have to make sense. However, in answer: Donald would probably like to dry off his entire body. He simply towels off top to bottom, and leaves the towel where it is to catch any residual droplets of water as he leaves the shower. (I can't believe I just typed that)
- Because people are silly.
- Because you'd run out of colours long before you run out of fruit.
- I would assume that the cat would land on its side.
- Because numberings don't automatically indicate rank. If I say "I am number one" it indicates rank. If I pick up a #2 pencil, it does not. Or a 5 iron for golfing, as a random example. I hope you enjoyed this short language lesson, fees to be deposited at my personal bank account. Thank you.
- I'm assuming a deep shade of purple. Why would I choke a smurf though? Why would you even consider this conundrum? Really? It's a SMURF. Why would you consider CHOKING a SMURF!?
- Major ingredient of the roll, I believe.
- Because the scientist who gave them their common name was colour blind, sadly. Luckily, he wasn't allowed to name other things involving a colour.
- I would assume it's a minor component part of the graphite of the pencil. Mind you, I could be completely off-base here.
- Kouen already asked this back on page one or two, so I'll quote my answer to him here: "The query is irrelevant. If this woodchuck were to resist me, I would turn it into a robot out of pure spite for causing these daft questions."
- Yup, though it was a fair bit of work answering them all. I do apologise if I seemed short with you on some questions, but that happens sometimes.
- Human.Quote:

- Well, the fact that he's thwarted my schemes a couple dozen times is a start. Blowing up my mechs with me in it is also a hot contender.
- Yes. Why would I wear a fake mustache? This mustache is my pride and joy, thank you very much.
- I have no idea. If the theories about souls are true, then yes, I expect that I have a soul. If not, then nobody has a soul and the question is pretty much academic.
- ...I assume you mean Tattoos? If so, no.
- The minute incoherence makes sense.
More linguistic silliness, I'm afraid. And no, I'm not going to change all of it after I take over. Making a language 100% logical would only be possible if I passed a law requiring everyone to shut up.Quote:

A question for you: Do you have a book next to you titled "1,000 silly linguistic gaffes" or something?

- I should expect not, no.
- I think that by that point the question of the home run's validity becomes academic.
- Mostly because I think that viruses aren't usually in the army. Nor are bacteria. And before you say "they're in the soldiers!", that doesn't constitute membership.

- I'm not sure what worries me more. The formulation of that question, or the fact that you spent enough time considering this language construct in order to ask me this question. I try not to think about diarrhea, for example, but I suppose everyone has their vices. In actual answer: No. Suffering from an illness doesn't have enjoying the illness as a counterpart.

- I'd be angry. This is my thread, I made it, and I see no reason why someone else should decide to muscle in on it.

- For one, do they actually still do that or is that still the stigma attached to them? For two, you'll note that they don't exactly give their surname, address, and phone number.
- You forgot 5.
- Who knows.
- Probably because the freezer's used a lot less than the refrigerator. As a result, you have a closer knowledge of what is in the freezer (long-term storage) as opposed to the fridge (short-term storage, far more variation from day to day)
- You already used this one.
- Because there's a setting for EVERYONE.
- You really have a great capacity for curiosity, don't you? How should I know who the first guy was to think "let's milk a cow"?
- Their porcelain.
- You already used this one as well.
- You forgot 13 too.
- Weirdoes.
- You already used this one as well.
- Because you shouldn't think about questions like that in a blasted Road Runner cartoon.
- You forgot 17 too.
- Testy.
- A great many components, I believe, none of them actually involving babies.
- Ahhh gibberish, how I miss thee.
- Because supposition A is a broad statement that cannot be tested easily, whereas supposition B can easily be tested and confirmed by the application of one's finger. It's not CLEVER, but it is true.
- Why do you even think about these sorts of relations between unrelated terms? If my mind worked like this, I'd never get anything done. And probably be stuck in a neverending spiral of disgust.
- Same reason dogs hate being bathed but will gleefully jump into the first pond they see. Dogs are thick.
When you rule the world, will you distribute an extremely downgraded and "safe" version of your OS to your subjects?
Will you Remove all other OSes and use what I stated above to occasionally keep track of your subjects or certain subjects?
Do Jack Sicer's questions make you laugh? They make me laugh.
How would one go about learning to speak shakespearian? (I actually do understand most of it, but I would like to speak it fluently)
Do you like art?
How will you handle the educational system?
Since you're from a video game, do you have cheat codes?
If not cheat codes, would you use an Action replay or Gameshark?
Would cheat codes help you get rid of Sonic? (do you think it would work?)
Since you're from a video game, wouldn't that mean you're a piece of software? And since you're a piece of software, wouldn't that mean you could use your expertise and change the coding of the game (or world) you're in and either trap or get rid of sonic? I'm sure that
with your expert programming skills, you would be able to do so quite flawlessly.
Does Pizza really help with cancer?
so, if i am a robot will you re-program me? just askin. i like to play minesweeper in my head when im bored. i dont want to lose that function.
If you distribute a cut down version of your OS can it have windows pinball, windows solitaire, and grand theft auto or grand theft auto run over sonic edition?
Does your OS use a GUI or does it use a command prompt?
Whats the most funny joke you know?
What is 2 + 2 if it isn't 4?
- Probably, yes.Quote:

- Sometimes. I'll admit that they're becoming a bit repetitive though. Mostly because he IS repeating himself here and there now.
- Learning to speak it... Not sure, I just kind of picked it up, if I'm honest. Try reading The Belgariad, by David Eddings. It's used as a mode of speech by several knights in that series. (Fantasy novels)
- Too broad. I like some styles of art and despise others. This should come as no surprise.
- I have various options in place. Unless the curriculum is a complete wreck though, I'm considering not actually messing with that. To defeat the shortage of teachers, I have built a few capable robots, but only where necessary.
- *OOC Note: I realise Robotnik's from a video game, but I'm RP'ing a living version of him.* I'm from a... what? What is this, a Matrix reference? Yes, I realise games have been made about my attempts at conquest, but I'm very much real, thank you very much.
- See previous question.
- I would expect so, but in those games, the only cheat codes go to Sonic, given that he's portrayed as the hero.
- Please check back to the previous question about me being from a video game. Good grief.
- Tell me, have you ever heard the phrase "wishful thinking"?
Only if you're specifically programmed to defy and attack me. I've no quarrel with other bots, as long as they're not designed to counter me in any way.Quote:

I take it that you don't like Grand theft auto? well you could include gran turismo, final fantasy, quake, the sonic series and crash bandicoot. :sa-smile:Quote:

Will you continue support for windows xp if you get into power?
Will you make the Internet free to all people?
Now be fair, if I'd done that to Mighty it would've been doing him a favour, that game looks hilarious!Quote:

Spying on me? ;)Quote:

- If you have to ask me, I think the answer should be held as self-evident, don't you? Also, a hack attempt was repelled from my regular computer some time ago. So to answer your question - no. No it wasn't. And on the infinitesimally tiny off-chance that it was successful: Welcome to my non-base computer, which stores none of the data I use for my plots, creations, and similar.
Why are "Final Notices" usually followed by 20 more "Final Notices"
from the same person, agency or company?
Is a no brainer something you actually do because you have no brains or
something you fail to do because you have none? Are all deals on the Interner no brainers?
Do you believe that I can make you 1.2 million dollars cash in less than 30 days,
100% GUARANTEED using my newly discovered secret system?
Do you believe the price for my secret plan was $595.00 but has just been lowered to
$1.99 because I'm such a great guy?
Why do people believe this crap and invest their money in these scams?
Does greedy really have to equal stupid?
Is it correct or even fair for the 99 cent stores to state
that they have never raised prices when multiple items that used to cost 99 cents total
are now priced each to total more, i.e. 2/99 cent items are now 59 cents or more each.
What about all the 99 cent items that are shrinking giving you less for your 99 cents?
Aren't these raised price?
Why is it that when someone does something bad, government and business
leaders make new rules that wouldn't have prevented it in the first place,
i.e. a man brings a bomb on a plane and tries to detonate it so now you can't use the
restroom for the last hour of the flight?
If you really have to go, do they think rules will stop you?
Doesn't it just become a matter of where?
Why are there seeds in seedless watermelons?
Why are there now more overweight (fat) people
in the world than starving people?
Why is there an expiration date on sour cream?
Isn't it sour already?
If psychics can really see the future, why don't
they all come to Vegas and get rich?
How many hours a year do we lose trying to get
an actual live human being on the phone
when we have a problem that the
computer/answering system can’t resolve.
Why is milk a necessary ingredient to make instant potatoes?
Is milk removed when potatoes are dehydrated?
How does one milk a potato?
Should a person with a beard wash it with soap or use shampoo?
Should someone invent beard shampoo? Is this the next billion dollar idea?
If vampires don't breath, how do they talk?
If the laws of attraction really work,
why do most of the gamblers who play in Vegas lose?
They all really do think they're going to win, don't they?
When people say that the world is getting smaller,
do they mean the cans, boxes and other containers
of things we buy are getting smaller
while the price remains the same (or sometimes even increase)?
Who wants to buy 2.4 servings of something anyway?
When a grocery store has a section for
"Natural Foods," does that mean that the rest of
the food items in that store are unnatural?
If some foods are organic,
are the rest of the foods inorganic?
If so, will chewing them hurt your teeth?
Why is it OK to sell your blood or sperm,
but illegal to sell a kidney or part of your liver
which could save someones life?
Why are there so many "R" rated movies
without nudity? If a movie is already rated "R" due to violence,
drug use, language, etc., what does the producer or director think
he will lose by showing a little skin?
and yes, i do have a source for random and confusing questions!
D'you know that this doesn't come as a surprise? I'll admit I'm not necessarily overfond of your source though. They stray into the "stupid question" territory a bit too often to be "random and confusing". Oh well, taking it from the top once more.Quote:

- No.
- No.
- Because of a fundamental truth about sentient races that I figured out quite some time ago. People are dumb.
- Greed in moderation doesn't necessarily equal stupidity. However, the two complement eachother remarkably well.
- Is it correct or even fair to harp on about stores that sell stuff to you for less than pocket change?
- Because bureaucracy is an overused tool that leads to excessive idiocy.
- Depends. If there's an armed officer on board? Yes, I really rather think the rules will stop me. Not ME, of course, but an ordinary citizen, yes.
- I don't particularly want to contemplate that. I don't know why you keep wanting to contemplate things like this.
- The ones that have seeds are obviously imperfect products.
- Because the United States.
- In response to this, allow me to pose you a little experiment. Buy some sour cream, let it go a few weeks past the expiration date (while leaving it out of the fridge, preferably), and force yourself to eat it. If you don't die from acute food poisoning, now you know why it has an expiration date.
- Because true psychics are extremely rare, and the ones that push themselves into the spotlights are pretty much universally miserable lying scamming cretins.
- I'm sure someone's figured out an average to this. To that someone, I have this to say: DO SOMETHING USEFUL WITH YOUR LIFE.
- Why wouldn't it be?
- Feel free to believe that.
- I'll let you imagine that.
- Should a person with a beard really give a damn?
- No, and no, respectively.
- They don't have to breathe. They can still do so and do so in order to produce vocal sounds.
- Because the laws of attraction have bugger-all to do with the primary component of these people: Idiocy.
- No. That really isn't what people mean when they say the world is getting smaller. If you actually think that, I know one or two excellent psychiatrists I can refer you to. And nobody wants to buy 2.4 servings of anything. That would be stupid.
- Given most supermarkets, yes. Yes it does.
- Let's just go with 'yes' on that one and ignore it. Also, how the hell do you equate inorganic food with painful teeth unless you were raised eating ROCKS!?
- Already had this one.
- Because R rating doesn't necessarily mean nudity? Put it this way. Nudity is not a necessity for a film to be R rated. The producer likely did not avoid nudity to prevent shocking his viewers, but felt it was unnecessary. I realise this may seem unnatural to you, given the questions you keep bloody asking.
What 3 improvements do you intend to fit to the Egg Carrier?
