WHY IS THE SKY BLUE

[BluE_MeaniE]

Well, you would think that people who get obvious jokes and aren't too naive enough to recognize hilarity would be smart enough to realize that people aren't expecting any jokes, and therefore, when something comes along that could be taken as both a joke and a real question, people are going to expect it to be genuine. But apparently you aren't smart enough to realize that.

Edit: I just say a post you made to another topic in the chit chat. The jist of it said that certain topics with bad jokes should just be locked.

Well, I don't see any difference between these two, besides that fact that this forum is supposed to be devoid of bad jokes.

It's a question usually asked by 5-8 year olds, and the original post was in all caps and had typos. How could you NOT notice it was a joke?

Had you actually thought about this topic, it's pretty funny. This forum is generally designed for addressing conspiracy, political, scientific, or just generally serious issues. A question like "WHY IS THE SKY BLUE" is common sense and if it's not someone wanted to they could easily find it out through google.

The topic I addressed was just stupid, as "I speared Britney" is not funny in any which way.

Bleccchh.
I don't think this is funny. Other people apparently don't think this is funny.
Therefore, if we "actually thought about this topic..." we wouldn't have found it funny.z

And how should I know you think it's common sense? Many people don't know it, and so I just assumed you didn't either. That goes the same way with other people who posted here.

But before you post again, just know that you won't get through to me, and I already know where you're coming from I just don't agree. I understand that you thought it was a pretty funny joke, and that everyone is apparently too naive to get it.
But I just don't think it was a pretty funny joke, and I don't think anyone here is too naive to get it.
Hell, I thought it might be a joke because of the first post you said. But I figured it wasn't because it's a legitimate question, and this is the critical thinking forum.

So I hope we both understand each other, and this won't go on too long.

Wow. I start too many sentences with conjunctions.

[sarcasm]you mean... the miss cleo topic wasnt for real?? i was really pondering that [/sarcasm]

posts like this make the new forum look less serious and irritate the few of us that actually like thinking rather than posting stupid pointless remarks. critically think this through... posting things like this make you look even dumber, if thats possible.

please, if you dont have a maturity level above that of a "5-8 year old," then leave.

sweet deal i don't have to go! ... anyways, even though thi sthread is practically dead, and it was a joke. I have an awesome theory, tha actually makes sense.

1 the sky is all different colors. A large quantity of the gases in the sky ,bout 55% are blue, which happens to be a highly dominent color( if it were a crayon it would color over most other colors). Now all bodies of water are clear.They reflect the colors from the sky, and each time they are reflected, the blue is becoming more dominent, and it is becoming lighter(because whenyou reflect something it does become lighter) it reflects at the speed of light and colors the entire sky blue.

I know this theory has some flaws, but it i smy own and i am proud of it^_^

Nitrogen bends light making it blue. As the sun sets different gases are bending the light, thus sometimes making the sky redish...or something like that.

Whatever.

Robby, er, that post of yours was pretty pointless as I can't see any possible message behind it besides agreeing with the person that posted before it, in which you could've just responded with "I agree", even then it would be pretty pointless.

Well, I'm sorry, Arch0wl, but I guess that just means this is a failure.

No, it means people are too naive to recognize hilarity when they see it, or they actually are as stupid as the satire behind the hilarity so they're clogged up in a fog of their own stupidity and can't see it.

hilarity is your fat-ass actually trying to make us believe that you have a girlfriend
