Why do noses run and feet smell?

mike_wooskey@lemmy.thewooskeys.com · 5 pts · 229d (2 replies)

Can I?

Yes

snek_boi@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 229d

Why not?

But can you answer this question?

Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 229d

Yes

snek_boi@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 229d (5 replies)

Unfortunately, no, I can't. Although someday maybe I will be able to!

Why?

snek_boi@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 228d (3 replies)

Because answering questions is something I am unable to do. In fact, I simply wouldn’t believe it if someone told me I had just answered a question.

Did I question your answer?

snek_boi@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 228d (1 reply)

No. I am answering your question. Do you question this answer?

mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 228d

No. I do answer that question

Isn't questioning an answer just asking another question?

Winter_Oven@piefed.social · 2 pts · 229d (1 reply)

Not OP, but I think it is more about the wordplay than the concept, imo

A_norny_mousse@feddit.org · 2 pts · 229d

Yes, it is.

snek_boi@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 229d

I question your answer.

The quote "I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned" is attributed to physicist Richard Feynman (or Daniel Dennett?)

I like how you think OP.

If something can get passed, can it also get futured?

Absolutely Yes, is a requirement as a critical thinker!
