The Post Whatever Thread

[Seattle]

Had cause to use a public toilet cubicle the other day. Some grafitti was scrawled near the bottom of the door, "Beware of Limbo Dancers"

That actually reminds me of a person story. Long ago, when I was between college and grad school, I briefly worked in retail at a large "department" store.

It had large public bathrooms. I was using the bathroom, sitting in a stall like that, when I hear a weird noise coming from the stall next to me and then a hand came under the side of the stall toward me.

I pinned the wrist backyard hard and heard a loud yelp coming from the next stall.

I finished my "business' and left the bathroom. I don't know if the person had already left or was still in the stall.

I reported it to store security just as something for them to be aware of but that was the last I heard of that "limbo dancer". Maybe he "retired"?

What question should you ask?

How much dirt would be in the hole in wegs yard if I filled ½ of the hole in 47 days?

 

[Michael 345]

When sitting, I have something...but I never have it when I'm standing...what is it?

Flat arse

I don't understand the concept of 47 days. That's just NOW 47 times.

imagine what is in that heap-pump filter ...
stampeding limbo dancers would be the least of your worry's

my guess was a codified pre determined answer relating to Fibonacci sequence until i realised the initial size of the amount could be a quark while foolishly attempting to rationalise the 7 fold paper sheet rule

Close

More like 47 arbitrary periods (called day) between fairly evenly spaced 48 arbitrary NOWs

7 fold

Only 7 fold???

Have to recalibrate, does not compute on my abacus

So much more convenient.

If NOW is after 47 days then half the hole would be filled.

I once ate a banana whilst talking and walking up a steep hill, never again.

What was the banana saying?

And where was it going walking up a hill?

 

[TheFrogger]

Bananevis?

Bock's Car was the name of the B-29 that dropped the Fat Man bomb on Nagasaki.

 

[TheFrogger]

Thanks SideShowBob. I didn't know that. I know the other plane was the Enola Gay. There's a song about it.

What was the banana saying?

It was just talking a load of bananas.

And where was it going walking up a hill?

It wanted to be top banana. Get it?

Talking of nuclear blasts. I always think this is a wow story:

The six ginkgo trees, which still grow about a mile (1.6km) from the bomb site, suffered extreme damage in the blast.
However, new buds soon emerged from the burnt trunks, leading to the ginkgo becoming a symbol of hope in Japan.
