Did you ever want to play questions?

Should we be making declarative statements on the questions thread? You know the rule, right?

You are aware of the repercussions of a non question post, even with a ninja edit, correct?

I wonder who has collected the most Donalds…?

I added “ETA” to emphasize my edit. Was that really a ninja edit?

If you have to ask a question to answer a question, was it really a question?

(Is this the most surreal thread of BB ever?)

Could I really turn you into a birder, or is that only something you could do? Isn’t the call of the wild hard to resist, though? An eagle!? How cool is that!? Did you get any photos?

Well a golden eagle would be cool would it not? Bald eagles are quite easy to spot in the pacific northwest though, haven’t I see some soaring about in the sky just in my front yard?

Did you know that if you start visiting the questions thread there’s a risk you’ll run out of likes and see the dreaded “You’ve reached the maximum number of likes today” message?

Fucking hell, I was driving and almost slammed into the car ahead of me–what the hell to do!?

Aren’t I glad I got to hang out with the pair at the PHX zoo?

What is Late Stage Capitalism, and why have I seen this phrase in so many threads in the last few days? Is my head in the sand?

Well it runs on my laptop on one core, so it’s not going to be finding the next Mersenne prime, is it? But do you know what it spat out today?
15551555155515551…15551555155515551 with 16633 digits ( (1555*10^16633-5551)/9999 ) is prime, doesn’t feel it should be a prime, does it?

Should I feel a little sad that my program’s already taking well more than a minute for each test of a 16,000 digit (cool looking) candidate with a less than 1% hit rate?

There is, but are you sure you wouldn’t prefer the original?
