Questions with no answers
If you're in a vehicle going at the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights?
How does the bloke who drives the snowplough get to work in the mornings?
Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?
Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
Has a fish got a watertight head?
If it is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?
If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?
What colour is a mirror?
If a man is talking in the forest and there is no woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?

Handle everything in life like a dog would
If you cant eat it or hump it
Piss on it and walk away
I can't spell, this is a fact I'm well aware of, have been all my life, thank you.
Also my grammar is toilet, I'm guessing I could work on this, but wont, again I'm aware thank you.

Re: Questions with no answers
If you're in a vehicle going at the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights?
The photons from the lights travel at the same speed as you, so they "relatively speaking" don't do anything. However to an external observer, the headlights would seem broghter (but no beam).
How does the bloke who drives the snowplough get to work in the mornings?
As he's got a fecking great plough on the front of his vehicle it just pushes the snow to the sides.
Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations? Don't ask a hypothetical question if you don't want a hypothetical answer.
Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
But it is. Tw@t.
Has a fish got a watertight head? Yes, the water goes in through its mouth and out through its gills. It dosn't breathe through its head.
If it is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?
It is closed one day every four years. (Leap year)
If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?
You have succeeded in failing.
What colour is a mirror?
Whatever is "looking" at it.
If a man is talking in the forest and there is no woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?
It depends on the time of year. Blossom has both male and female components.

Oh dear. There's always one. Pedantry and pseudo-intellectual shite....
If you're in a vehicle going at the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights?

However to an external observer, the headlights would seem broghter (but no beam). and your proof is....
How does the bloke who drives the snowplough get to work in the mornings? As he's got a fecking great plough on the front of his vehicle it just pushes the snow to the sides. And he gets from his place of residence to his place of work how exactly? RTFQ.
Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations? Don't ask a hypothetical question if you don't want a hypothetical answer. ?
Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
But it is. Tw@t. It's not. At the very least it should begin with an 'f'. C0ck.
Has a fish got a watertight head? Yes, the water goes in through its mouth and out through its gills. It dosn't breathe through its head. And the mouth is where precisely?
If it is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors? It is closed one day every four years. (Leap year) Fcking pedant.
If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?
You have succeeded in failing. I'll give you that.
What colour is a mirror?
Whatever is "looking" at it. ? Not an answer. RTFQ.
If a man is talking in the forest and there is no woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?
It depends on the time of year. Blossom has both male and female components. See above.

Re: Questions with no answers
Why is the speed of light considered the fastest thing possible if darkness is always there before light?
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather, to skid in sideways, Champagne in one hand - chocolate covered strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'Woohoo - What a Ride!

Re: Questions with no answers
It’s a simple matter of matter and mathematics, i.e. you never here them say "sector 2, dark speed" on star wars or star treck do you, and there from the future so it must be true.

No, to the casual observer you wouldn't be able to see the car or it's headlights until after it had already knocked you down and seriously shortened your life expectancy.

Here are a few more to mull over in a slack moment:

Why is dyslexia so hard to spell?
Why did kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Re: Questions with no answers
Interestingly* this is more or less the thought experiment that led Einstien to relativity. He decided that you observe the headlight beams going away at light speed and someone stood on the ground also observes the light beams going away at light speed.

So most people would decide at this point that they must be wrong but Einstien was sure he was right so he decided that since they both see the light traveling at the same speed but the man in the car sees it cover more distance and speed = distance / time, time must be running differently for the guy in the car.
Clearly this is madness. Turns out it's right though. The universe is a wierd place.
*Not really. "Not at all interestingly" might be better, "You're really going to regret starting to read this" would be better still
