Answer a QUESTION with a QUESTION

[Neia]

Are all foods brownish, melty and sticky?

 

[AuAL]

Wouldn’t all foods be like that if you put them in a pot and heated them long enough?

 

[Neia]

But wouldn't that be yucky rather than yummy?

 

[TBRS1]

If two words both begin with "y" and end with "y" doesn't that mean that they mean almost the same thing?

 

[Neia]

So... Delightful and Dreadful mean the same thing, or does that apply only to y words?

 

[TBRS1]

Are you saying that you aren't certain if "I had a delightful time" means the same as "I had a dreadful time"?

 

[Neia]

Are you trying to confound me?

 

[TBRS1]

Did it work?

 

[Neia]

Should I know?

 

[TBRS1]

Who is to say what you should or should not be expected to know?

 

[Neia]

But would I know if I'd been confounded?

 

[TBRS1]

Have you tried counting your fingers to make sure you aren't dreaming?

 

[Neia]

What do you mean... can't you count in your dreams?

 

[TBRS1]

Isn't it more a matter of rapidly shifting numbers of fingers?

 

[Neia]

What if, in the dream, I don't have any fingers but only thumbs?

 

[TBRS1]

Would it be better or worse to discover you have squiggley tentacles covered with little mouths?

 

[tree]

Have them where?

 

[TBRS1]

Where would you like to have them?

 

[Neia]

Aren't squiddly tentacles often found stewed in pots?

 

[TBRS1]

Are there people so untidy that they end up finding tentacled creatures roaming about in the kitchen?
