I was unsure whether to post this under "Culture: Sex: Pornography" or "Culture: Music: Style".
In fact, I was just unsure whether to post this.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jun 28 2010 So, you set up a nodding Homer, perhaps in the window of a car, like one of those nodding dogs... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeric_nod... and point the sensors of your AI device towards it [pertinax, Jun 29 2010] Wikipedia says http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatits an ability test. [pashute, Jul 01 2010] This was actually a little-known musical style that Ella Fitzgerald tried, but it never really took off.-- figmeant, Jun 28 2010 In that case, you should open the box and collapse the wave function.-- 8th of 7, Jun 28 2010 This was (with both meanings) in that giant Schrödinger of an idea we had recently where all the annotations turned into a list of pündingers. However I cant find it on ‘search’ and I don’t recall what the idea was called.-- pocmloc, Jun 28 2010 // I don’t recall what the idea was called //
"Open the box, kill the kitty" ?-- 8th of 7, Jun 28 2010 //unsure whether to post this// Until I clicked on the link, I was unsure whether you had. Now that I've observed it, the idea has lost whatever quantum coherence it may once have possessed.
Seriously, is there an idea here?-- mouseposture, Jun 28 2010 //is there an idea here?//
Nope, none whatsoever. But everyone slips occasionally and is unable to resist a bad pun. Feel free to mark for deletion, in which case I shall oblige.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jun 28 2010 Schrödinger's Cow.... "Would you like milk in your tea?""Of course - do you have some?""I might have"."What do you mean: "You might have"?""Well I keep a cow in that box over there"......-- xenzag, Jun 28 2010 [MB] Aliquando bonus dormitat Homerus.-- mouseposture, Jun 29 2010 I thought that this idea was just to provide empiric evidence that the cat was actually alive.-- jurist, Jun 29 2010 'Tis we that dream.-- pertinax, Jun 29 2010 <HAL>
"Will I dream, Dave ?"
</HAL>-- 8th of 7, Jun 29 2010 If you think that Homer nods, then yes, apparently. This may be an as-yet unexplored alternative to the Turing test.-- pertinax, Jun 29 2010 [Mouseposture] Factotum aliquot semper clitoris.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jun 29 2010 Bzzzt! Bluff: no such animal!-- pertinax, Jul 01 2010 Max, well... be you! Can none?-- pashute, Jul 01 2010 //Factotum aliquot semper clitoris.// Hmm... suspiciously Google-proof. I won a prize in Latin once. I've forgotten the Latin but the prize -- a dictionary of classical quotations -- remains, and I can't find that. [MB] would you translate, please?-- mouseposture, Jul 02 2010 //[MB] would you translate, please//
Certainly. A loose translation into Western Apache would be "nohwíí -’isdzánh " (at least, that's the best I can do with the available character sets).-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jul 02 2010 No, no! the translation is: May the goddess bring you many happy camels and protect you from the painful reproductory diseases of the wicked temple whores.-- blinddriver, Jul 03 2010 To symbolise the uncollapsed waveform, this really should be in the "Halfbakery:Category" category-- hippo, Jul 03 2010 servants are almost always clitoris?-- daseva, Jul 03 2010 Google-proof because bollocks. Trust me on this one.-- pertinax, Jul 03 2010 //Google-proof because bollocks.// No, Google-proof because "clitoris."
That's only the second-best way to poison a search. The first-best way is to include the name of a band. The zeroth- best way is to make it yield an audio clip of Rick Astley.-- mouseposture, Jul 03 2010 random, halfbakery
