Ever had a weird thought in your brain like:

Why do 7-11's have locks when they're open year round?

Or:

What would happen if Pinnochio said "My nose is about to grow."?

Have you had any thoughts like that?

Acourse. My brain has a mind of its own.

You know, that Pinnochio comment is very clever! If it did grow, it wouldn't grow because he'd've been telling the truth. But if it didn't grow, he'd've been lying so it would grow! So... I guess his nose would just fall off, or truth and lies would mean nothing, or the world would end.

How about... when they show plasma TV commercials on your cube-TV, you see what great quality the screen has on the plasma? If you can see the greatness of the TV they want you to buy on your old-style TV, doesn't your old TV have great quality?

Now I understand! Yeah, that does mean something!

About the Pinnochio comment, remember that the converse is not always true. Lie => nose grows, not nose grows => lie. So, by saying, "My nose is about to grow," Pinnochio is basically guaranteeing that it does. If it grows, it grew on its own accord. If it doesn't, he will have lied and it will grow from that.

Of course, the statement "My nose is about to grow" is pretty subjective anyway. I've been told that the human nose grows for the duration of a person's life. Technically, all our noses are growing right now as you read this--unless you don't have a nose, like Michael Jackson, in which case I'm sorry.

I've always wondered if we were just video game characters in a video game world. Ever since I got The Sims, I always look up at the roof to see if the roof is still there, and if I have a green diamond (Known as a plumbob) on top of my head. *Looks up* Whew...

I've learned that birds/people associated with birds have awesome sense of humor! ^_^

It wouldn't hurt me if I were a video game character. I'd be able to jump a whole lot more pixels higher than I can now. Then again, I'd probably be one of those bone-spitting chickens in Stinkoman 20X6.

Yes, I associate with birds. This is Talula. She's a good bird (note the DS).

8D I'm flattered!

More weird ponderings, please! I'm... getting teary-eyed... Talk amongst yourselves.

My dumb friend always ask my SOcial Studies teacher some VERY dumb questions. He makes the teacher steaming mad!! One of it was 'Do monkeys have an air force?' Maybe monkey's will always trail behind us, and when the time is right........ THEY'll throw banana peels at you!
