Because it brings all the Steves to the yard.

Why is the twenty-fifth letter of the alphabet?

Not quite, but I "encrypt" things I'd prefer to be private in Old English runes.

Ok, THAT'S cool how do you do that?!

(BTW the Old English word endemann means someone "living in end times").

Also an interesting fact! Awesome!

 

[Muaht]

Because why not.

To answer the above question (I refuse to quote people who post immediately above a reply) english was originally a runic script and technically a West Germanic language. It's really AMAZINGLY easy to read runes if you can read English, thus I'm really bad at "being secret". Example that Tolkien (a Professor of linguistics) used: Mordor = morðor = "murder" in Old English (or Anglo-Saxon if you prefer).

See, from the tone of this I feel like I've done something wrong, but I don't know what :\ I use quotes to make sure that my replies are unambiguous - I often reply to more than one person, so I've got into the habit of making sure its clear what I'm replying to, but... am I making faux pas with that?

And for my silly question: what do you call a fly with no wings?

What do you call a ghast outside the nether?

 

[Muaht]

See, from the tone of this I feel like I've done something wrong...

Nah, of course you did nothing wrong. I was just talking about not quoting things written just above my post.

Why do oaks drop apples?

 

[GamerwithnoGame]

Because they're confused - but they might drop oak apples (aka oak gall), a product of gall wasp larvae.
(or because Minecraft is confused )

I was going for "A walk", but that works too

Yes but only because you speak a dialect of gibberish I don't yet speak

What should a reasonable adult do to do a tall block tower. Extra pts awarded for creativity

 

[Robijnvogel]

Place ladders against it, climb up the tower, pick up the top block, bring it down and place it on the ground. Repeat until the tower is less than 3m high.
That height isn't safe, you know. And adults aren't creative.

If it could chuck would, it would chuck the would out of that sentence, giving

For me to be buried under it.

Robjinastrochlacher day

How do I ask a silly question to get A silly answer¿

 

[GamerwithnoGame]

Are we going to put a human on Mars within this century, and if we do, will anyone believe it?

 

[Robijnvogel]

It's called an impersonation, right?

No, and yes.

Is that a gun in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

 

[GamerwithnoGame]

Yes.

Is a zebra black with white stripes, or white with black stripes?

It's called an impersonation, right?

Absolutely, impersonation is probably a better word in fact. I don't know if this is just me, but I think of an impression as a vague attempt to sound like someone, and an impersonation as a genuine effort to duplicate their sound and mannerisms. I might be wrong though!
