Somebody needs to cut me down to size...I have an answer for everything

[msatty99]

and my head is getting big!

[SofaKingLiberal]

1. What is Quantum tunneling?

[msatty99]

4. Quantum tunneling?

Obviously a trick question...

Nobody knows...its theoretical wormholes from
one side of creation to another in a different time?:eyes:

[KitchenWitch]

2. How many ATP does the Crebs Cycle yield?

[msatty99]

5. You have cut me! Hoooray

:bounce:

[KitchenWitch]

8. That year of biochem has paid off then!

:rofl:

[msatty99]

10. Just to make sure everyone knows...Kitchenwitch is

ahead on points! Suckas!

[KitchenWitch]

11. Oh and a belated welcome to DU!

[EstimatedProphet]

45. It didn't pay off enough...

It's spelled 'Krebs'.
:rofl:

[XemaSab]

84. I think it's spelled with a K

[reyd reid reed]

3. Why?

[msatty99]

6. Why?

cause like my daddy said...Because I said so! That's why!

[reyd reid reed]

14. Nope

Not good enough. If it doesn't work when I use it on my kids, it can't work here, either.

So....why?

[msatty99]

24. Reid...you're a toughy...try this one

"Because your mother said so...that's why"

[reyd reid reed]

28. Same thing

Gender notwithstanding (and I'm a girl, anyway).

[msatty99]

31. Alright alright Reid ....try this on them

"Why? Because Msatty99 said so...now eat your vegetables!!!"

[reyd reid reed]

33. LOL

Still isn't an answer, though. It's a 'because'. And 'because' isn't an answer, it's just a word.

(btw...I hate the question. I just want someone else to hate it just as much. It's fun being on the other side for once.)

[northzax]

64. my mom always used to say

"on account of the fact of because"

[file83]

60. Why not?

[crispini]

7. What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

[msatty99]

9. Crispini, my dear friend,

its about 85 miles an hour (under normal conditions)

however, in a 100 mph wind it depends very much on the whether
the swallow (unladen) faces into the wind or away from the
wind.

In Most 110 mph gales, the swallow opts for stationary positions.

I have seen barn bats ripely disoriented by high pitched dog whistles
and confusion and chaos reign

[KitchenWitch]

12. OK, here is another - what is the difference between codeine and morphine?

[msatty99]

15. Ok morphine is an opiate and

codeine isn't...like I have these visions of a codeine guy
laying around in an alley in a cheap suit kind of disheveled like
a drunk with a bottle of red juice in his hand and sort of
displaced...whereas with Morphine, I keep thinking about that
old lady in "To Kill a Mockingbird" so, it obvious Kitchenwitch
that I have given you an answer as promised..hee hee:smoke:

[KitchenWitch]

16. codeine is also an opiod

the difference between the two is the placement of one hydroxyl group on the main molecule.

:P

[msatty99]

20. OUCH !!!! Kitchenwitch 2 Msatty99 -0

[KitchenWitch]

22. I have special esoteric knowledge of drugs

:rofl:

[xmas74]

13. Why have all of my exboyfriends refused to purchase

tampons for me? Shouldn't they have been pleased that I needed them?

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

17. Yes they should have .

My first boyfriend did'nt mind getting them at all .

[xmas74]

18. Every last one of them refused.

One of them probably wished he had been willing after I sent him for the EPT instead.

[Katherine Brengle]

36. Whoah...

If my husband wouldn't pick up something like this for me when he was already out, I would bitch-slap him into next Tuesday and then I would ask for a divorce.

Bastardos!

[xmas74]

40. You noticed that they are all exes.

There is a good reason for that and it's not just the for the reason cited above.

[msatty99]

19. Xmas...thank Gawd I was here to answer this question

First, they refused to purchase 'those things' because they would
feel like a total dork walking in the store and asking someone
to help them find the ...ta..tam....ok you know

second, No.

Third...guys don't even want to THINK about that!

Finally, a bonus...they are all "EX" because you
asked them to do stuff like this...wise up girlfriend,
your husband will do all that when the time comes.

[xmas74]

21. Well, one of them should have been thankful

for the opportunity. He wasn't too happy when I sent him for the EPT instead and wondered outloud why it couldn't have been Tampax.

The result of that incident is planning her 6th birthday.

[Maddy McCall]

25. I wish I could put this exchange between you and msatty on my blog.

One of the funniest convos I remember in recent history on DU. :hi:

[xmas74]

27. All women should identify w/ this!

I know that most men suck but I still cannot convince myself to become a lesbian.

I guess I'm stuck w/ the men.

(Great idea about the blogs)

[KitchenWitch]

32. Weird story

I would never think of asking a man to pick those sorts of items up for me, I guess I figured it was my deal. My husband and I went on a road trip and we ended up checking into a motel very late at night, when lo and behold, my visitor appeared. He volunteered to pick stuff up for me, since it was like 2 AM and I had driven for the last 5 hours.

I do not make a habit of asking, but it sure is nice to know that, if in a pinch, he will come through for me.

[xmas74]

34. Exactly.

I don't demand it of anyone but...

Look, if you are already running to the drugstore and I'm busy frying your ass a whole chicken then you could be nice and pick me up some items that I need. It's not like I'm asking you for FDS, douches, Preparation H or Monistat. And I'm sure that there is some other guy out there who wishes it were just tampons he had to pick up, instead of the EPT and a bouquet of flowers.

[Katherine Brengle]

37. Yaay, BIRTHDAYS!!!

My daughter's birthday is next month--the big "2" lol, hahahahaha...

[xmas74]

49. My daughter's is in June.

She wants a pirate party so now is the time to start ordering everything!

[ChoralScholar]

23. hmmm.

In George Herzog's article "Speech-Melody and Primitive Music", does he conclude that musical settings of Navajo chants tend to clarify or obscure the texts? Why? What does Herzog mean by a “tone-language?”

[msatty99]

29. You know, I was chatting with George just last weekend, and ...

we had a very detailed discussion of this very topic. Oddly, it seems
that he has decided that he totally fouled up with this particular
article. He is terribly troubled and wondering how he might quietly
withdraw it from public discussion. (based on a few comments I had made)
He made me promise not to discuss the topic until he had settled on
a course of action.

[ChoralScholar]

30. well, dammit,

I wouldn't have had to answer it on my American Music final if I had known that!

[Random_Australian]

26. Quantum tunneling: No it isn't theoretical wormholes,

and why don't you outline for us how they explain the otherwise inexplicable spontaneous escape of helium nuclei from unstable large nuclei, and how it explains that helium nuclei are the ones emitted? It's a simple, integral part of Quantum Physics, and since it is the single most successful theory of all time, if you try to tell me 'It's just a theory' I will kill you. ;).
(Unless you want a 400-page forum locking rant on 'It's just a theory', of course... :) )

[msatty99]

35. Dear Random Australian....

first, let me remind you that this is America. If I want to believe
that Quantum Tunneling is 'something like wormholes..maybe' then I
and 100% FREE to believe it. I don't know what they are teaching you
kids 'down under' but that's how we do it in the good ole USA.

Second, I have my doubts about your comment that it is the 'single
most successful theory of all time'... I mean come on man! How much
money did it make? Does it drive a Porsche?

Finally...it really is "just a theory"

[Random_Australian]

38. BOOM TIME!

Preps self for RANT! (see next post)

[Random_Australian]

39. HAH! JUST A THEORY! (amusánt rant edition)

I'LL SHOW YOU A VACUUM, YOU'LL CALL IT A VACUUM CLEANER!
UNSUCCESSFUL? ON top of predicting every single phenomena ever observed, it doesn't need a car, from quantum tunnelling. BUT IT STILL HAS CARS!! 1000'S OF PENIS EXTENTIO... I MEAN CARS!!!

AND BABES AND THAT STUFF!
America, true, you're able to believe in wormholes. And Rabbit holes. And Giant Squid holes!

HAH! AND YOU'LL PROBABLY SAY THAT THE SQUID WAS PICKED UP BY THE BOLIVIAN NAVY ON MANEUVRES IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC!!

AND THE * GOVERNMENT IS ACTUALLY A SMALL, OFF DUTY CHECKOSLOVAKIAN TRAFFIC WARDEN!

WHO IS JUST REALLY GOOD WITH HANDS PUPPETS!

I would say good day, but I think I'll say scrumpled up piece of blank notenook paper.
Good day,
R_A

P.S. Yes, strange things are said in this post. Yes, I've used them before, yes I will use them again... it's my plot to undermine DU (did I mention I'm Karl Rove)

You're still reading? in THAT case:



































"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

[APPLE314]

41. If Italy attacks Sicily from the rear will Greece help? -- -- n/t

[msatty99]

43. No, but if you are Hungary.

you can get Turkey and the Sandwich Islands automatically as allies

[APPLE314]

54. LOL I BOW HUMBLY - N/T

[northzax]

67. from the rear?

are you expecting Greece to help Italy or Sicily?

[bigwillq]

42. Hi! Welcome to DU!

:toast: :hi:

[EstimatedProphet]

44. But does that mean your answer is right?

[msatty99]

46. I have an answer for that question too...

and you can't prove it would be wrong!

[EstimatedProphet]

48. But if it can't be proven right or wrong, then is it really an answer?

[msatty99]

50. If it can't be proven right or wrong then yes it is an answer

...on the other hand if it can be proven, then besides being an
answer its a fact.

[EstimatedProphet]

52. I disagree

If an answer is unable to be proven right or wrong, then it loses relevance. What I mean by this is that if someone poses a question, whether it is concrete, philosophical, metaphysical, whatever, an answer to it has to have the value of being able to be proven right or wrong. This is not the same as the answer must be right or wrong. That may not be doable, but if it can't be shown to be either way, then it loses meaning. For example here's an answer to a question that can't be proven right or wrong:

Q: How do you set the timing on a 6 cyl 1998 Ford Tempo?
A: Orange.

The answer can't be proven right or wrong, and it has no meaning for the question. Even with metaphysical questions like does God exist, the answer has the ability to be shown at some point-you may have to die before you can find out, but there is a correct answer.

[msatty99]

53. Estimatedprophet -1 Msatty99-0 pffffffffft

[Dan-W]

57. You can't...

Ford discontinued the "Tempo" in 1994.

[EstimatedProphet]

58. Well, that's another answer then!

And it applies to the question, rather than 'orange'.

[spacelady]

74. I think the real answer has someting to do with Positron & Wheelbase

[mikeytherat]

77. Trick question! The Tempo was only availalble with a 2.4 litre inline 4

[Marie26]

47. What is the meaning of life?

And, what is the name of those little plastic thingies on the ends of sneaker ties? Thank you.

[msatty99]

51. There are a lot of answers to the question

for example one way of answering is this


"its not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game'

[Marie26]

55. Well, you seem to know

the meaning of life, but I've stumped you on the plastic shoelace thingies? Do I get a point? :)

[msatty99]

56. Marie...of course I wasn't stumped!!! but you get a point anyway!

Ha!

[yewberry]

72. The thingies on shoelaces

are called aglets.

Feel free to alert the media.

[Marie26]

79. Ah - Aglets

Now I can sleep at night. Thanks!

[msatty99]

59. Oh my gawd, my head is getting bigger

if it weren't for Marie and Kitchen witch, I would be so totally
awesome.

[file83]

61. When are you going to die? What year?

[msatty99]

62. My gawd that's easy file 84...

I die the year after you bite the big one

[file83]

63. That's impossible...because I died 3 years ago.

[msatty99]

65. Like I said, I died two years ago

[file83]

66. What number am I thinking of?

[msatty99]

68. File 84

you are obviously thinking of sixty six

[msatty99]

69. Freaked you out didn't I

Ha!

[file83]

71. LOL - no. I was thinking of "pi" - HA HA HA HA You lose. ME=+1

[msatty99]

75. NO WAY ....

You were thinking of 66 and just won't admit it!!!
You cannot think of pi because if you were you would
still be thinking of it. Because you can never get to
the end of it and since you obviously got to the end of
it, you went to 'default' ie sixty six.

[KitchenWitch]

70. What do the initials ATP stand for in biochemistry?

[msatty99]

76. Kitchenwitch...HA HA

A "tp" is obviously shorthand for 'the dwelling place of some native
americans" As an aside, usually plains 'indians' who were nomadic.

In victorian England, A tea pee was a brief break taken by elegant
ladies after afternoon tea and crumpets.

In certain mathematical circles (frequented by File83 -see above-)
it meant "at the numeric quantiy pi or, a brief interlude after
afternoon tea and crumptets"

I almost said Atropine. But I forgot what that was.

[obxhead]

73. After 1.25 liters of 80 proof Vodka.....

in a 12 hour period, How fast should you approach a 5 foot ramp over a 7 foot ditch on a 4 wheeler?

[mikeytherat]

78. With someone else driving, and you at a safe distance egging them on!

Do I get a prize?

mikey_the_rat

[msatty99]

80. I can't even imagine a 7 foot ditch sitting on a four wheeler

[RedCloud]

81. How many sheets could a sheet slitter slit if a sheet slitter could slit s

could slit sheets?
:shrug:

[msatty99]

82. Redcloud 1 msatty99 0

[bigwillq]

83. Hi!

Welcome to DU! :hi:
