The many questions-not-worth-their-own-thread question thread XV

[Disgustipated]

I got a question. Why do radio DJ's still insist on talking over the beginning part to nearly every song on the radio? They always talk over the song right up until the lyrics start. It's like they think the song without the singing is worthless. It's really annoying, and most people find it annoying, yet they still do it.

I guess it is done to avoid short moments of silence, as these moments are also experienced as weird by the listeners.

Most radio stations have software that cuts out the first and last silent seconds of a song to avoid this. You can call talking throughout the first and last part of a song a tradition, especially on commercial radio stations or find yourself a station that focuses more on the music instead of the constant talk.

If everyone had free and unlimited access to bacon and cannabis would there be world peace?

 

[Traitorfish]

Yes, because everyone would die of malnutrition.

I didn't say only bacon and cannabis.

You said infinite cannabis, and infinite bacon. Perhaps a few veggies might survive, and I suppose Cheezy will too, but everyone else? Deadski.

My brother would thrive on an all bacon diet, as long as he had salt. When he was younger we used say that "he'll have a bit of bacon with his salt", due to him always salting even proper home-cure.

How come those pound cakes available in convenience stores never actually weigh a pound? I'd like some truth in food labels, please.

 

[Dachs]

Because if you made a pound cake with a pound of flour, a pound of butter, a pound of eggs, and a pound of sugar - the reason it's called pound cake - the resulting cake would probably be too big to sell in a convenience store

so it's just the proportion of ingredients that stays the same

I'm pretty sure that everyone here besides warpus would get tired of bacon after maybe their 15th strip, tops, and then eat something else.

Ok, so let's say I have a rather large treadmill...

If I were to put a Delorian on said treadmill, could I reach velocity required to go back in time and keep myself from imagining this question?

 

[W|M]

There's a treadmill that can hold a Delorean and still go at 88 mph?

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Amazing - it worked!!!!!

I tell you what - I'll try it out.

If I succeed I'll post BEFORE THIS POST in the thread.

That would only happen if they weren't stoned.

Are nutritionists to be trusted?

Is it in the same league as social sciences?

Even bacon is too good of a food for consumption by stoners -- how do you think Taco Bell manages to economically sustain itself producing its crappy menu year after year?

It's crunchy and it's available in limitless supply. Of course the stoners will go for it.

I had brinner yesterday and conclusively proved this false.

diet is a personal choice, trust is a vague term, and social science is a contrived term without meaning.
