New Game - True or False

[pyan]

Sorry, don't understand the question...


T/F - time really is speeding up...

[Interference]

False, we're all slowing down.

T/F If Time is a constant, then Constance isn't late.

[Sparrow]

True. Since I've been on the wrong side of 40 time goes by quicker with every passing year. An illusion I know, and probably due to routine and lack of sleep. It seems whatever decreases the quality and quantity of memories also makes time appear to go by faster.




T/F, the Speed of Light degrades over time.

Yes, I'm finding that the individual hours seem to crawl, but whole weeks disappear in a flash...scary...

False - the speed of light is the Universal Constant, IIRC. Just as well, or tomorrow never comes, to coin a phrase...

T/F - the glass is half-full...

Me 3.

Really? If Imps Race Corvettes, then the speed of light is the Universal Constant?

T/F - the glass is half-full...

F - The glass is too big. (The engineer's answer to the question)


T/F - Every cloud had a silver lining (at some point).

Granfalloon~ Really? If Imps Race Corvettes, then the speed of light is the Universal Constant?

I drive a Corvette.
The only constant is the repair bills!





True. Even death has a silver lining.


T/F, Freddie Mercury was the greatest lead singer of all time.

[Arwena]

False, Mick Jagger was the greatest (not necessarily the best)

(From Novalis)

T/F There can be mathematicians of the first order who cannot count.

[Granfalloon]

True - There is an Axiom that proves 1 = 0. It was written by a mathematician.

I'm assuming you mean the seal of the coffin?


T/F in order to add any continuous group of sequential numbers, you can use the formula N*(N+1) (N being the highest number in the sequence)

[Interference]

I'll give you that one, rather than risk gray-matter-melt-down ...

(It's a trick question, isn't it? )

T/F All things come to those who shop at Waitrose

[Granfalloon]

True, but at what price?

example:

1,2,3,4,5
5,4,3,2,1
----------
6+6+6+6+6 = (5*(5+1)

T/F? What if all the matheticians in the world got together, and invaded Scotland in an attempt to free the Scots from England's treacherous rule?

30??

At a very reasonable price, of course

That should get rid of a lot of unnecessary mathemeticians, then the rest of us can get on with the serious business of parties and soaps.

T/F "What would you do if" and "True or False" are exactly the same game but with different rules. Wow. That's, like, a meta-dimensional concept, man. I mean ... wow.

Wow! You are such a genious! What a genious you are! I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy!

(especially because I forgot the divide by 2 part. )

[N*(N+1)]/2 (1+2+3+4+5 = 15!) Argh!!!

T/F? The Greek symbol Epsilon is used in mathematics as the symbol for summation.

[Interference]

Only by Greeks and never in winter, though there have been a few examples cited of it being used in autumation (I was going to say "fallation" but was worried it might look a little ... naughty )

T/F: Ancient Greeks work in old Greek restaurants.

[Granfalloon]

True.

T/F? Aristotle was a cook earlier in his life.

[Interference]

True, then he got married *Ducks* Incomiiiiiingggg!

T/F Socrates didn't sew crates for a living, either.
