Some may be relieved or disappointed to see that I have excluded Shakespearean tragedy from the list of options for various reasons.

For the next five minutes only, I’d love to have:

  • A taco
  • Silence

Honestly, I would prefer to live to work. I know that sounds crazy but I had a dream that never came to be. I would have loved that life and I would have lived for my work. Not for money’s sake. Solely for the love of the job. At present I have a job that I drudge through to live.

What parts of the world do the supper people come from?

I cannot vote since there isn’t an option for “What one band would you send to Hell”

Not sure, but there is the last supper. So where dinner came from I am not sure. Confusing.

Actually, the difference I’ve heard is supper is smaller than dinner. So light dinner = supper. Soup in the summertime for example.

I couldn’t decide between silence & a kitten. I’d like to snuggle a kitten in silence (edit: the kitten doesn’t need to be silent. Just the chaotic humans around me) lol

Supper comes from Old English/Germanic roots, whereas dinner is a borrowing from Old French, one of the many words in our lexicon we’ve taken from the French.

Yes to all and don’t forget breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Apparently a lot of you don’t live with 5 boys… Silence is a rarity.

I’m one of significantly more than 5. I understand this and am happy to live on my own these days.

2. Can you answer this question correctly?

  • No
  • No‌

0 voters

3. What does the correct answer to the previous question look like?

(a) How do a correct answer, wrong answer, and non-answer compare?
(b) Is a non-answer an answer in this case? Consider the English language, first-order logic, and common-sense perspectives. Discuss.

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

You’re a strange bot, Disco. You fail at logic, then you pass with flying colours when it comes to the warm fuzzies. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
