Me? I have a sweet tooth. Several sweet teeth. Most or all of which are full of cavities, fillings, and food remnants.

Now I am curious. Which story did I write? Please SMS me with the title. Thanks.

if someone, anyone, could do something, do you think they would do it or not do it? Think of a carpenter: he or she could make a table or a kitchen ca...

Okay, instead of measuring the concentration of ions, I'll switch me to "I on" and "I off", depending on whether you, yourself personally, without any...

I looked at it as a Hungarian Thor. No longer Norge Thor. You gave a new definition to the nation of Hungarians. We are no longer the Hungry nation.

It does not work that way. A true sadist never finds true satisfaction, because he or she does not feel the pain of the victim. This is why sadism / m...

If this practice of skepticism was followed through thoroughly and logically and truly, then you'd need to put every word in quotes whatever you write...

Sure they did. Lots of religious writers have. "God is the culprit." Or words to that effect.

I have no clue what any of those three keywords mean. No big deal, just sayin'.
July 06, 2022 at 21:23
why did I not think of that. Anyhow, 180 proof did precisely that, so we owe him a thanks.

Let the writers know your pH level next time we have a literary competition, please.

They are anonymous. You can read the stories and decide for yourself?

It made perfect sense the original way.

It was not THE answer; it was AN answer.

A Theory That Explains Everything Explains Nothing I can't give a proof that this is necessarily so. But I can give one example that supports the prop...

Humans need god like a fish needs a bicycle.

I don't understand. You mean an axiom, or a subsystem inside of the system that is proved by other parts of the system? In that case it's still the ca...

Now we're reviewing the reviews' reviews. Can we stretch this into an infinite regret?
July 06, 2022 at 09:18
And many of his short reviews seemed negative and harsh. Many vs many.
July 06, 2022 at 09:16
So your story can't be "Flood". Hypericin gave that a good review. So much for my detecting and guessing who wrote what. I don't know style, I don't k...

Now I have to explain everything?? :smile:
July 06, 2022 at 09:05
It's an even bigger strawman than you described. It's not question of whether a theory can explain everything... the question is whether a theory can ...

No, I can't. If you can't see it already, then there is no amount of explanation in the world that will make you see it. Sorry, I have my limitations ...

You're right. A theory is not a proof. It is a substantiated explanation. So the original statement is wrong, ad obo. "A theory that proves everything...

Continuity exception.

I take a different angle on this. The everything is a closed system. Proof requires something outside of a system. There is nothing outside of everyth...

That's too long. Maybe an hour or two. (!) from here on this sign will indicate I'm saying things in deadpan seriousness but I am actually joking.
