-- What was the primary food source 100 million years ago in the
|
||
|
approximate area of today's Germany?
|
||
|
|
||
|
-- Dinosauerkraut!

The apocalyptic landscape was no one's friend. As another day dawned,
|
||
|
The scrap dealer Scrap once again put on her protective gear and exited
|
||
|
the cave on her roaring tricycle, ready for all challenges.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Scrap soon crossed paths with a chaotic rider, but managed to get away
|
||
|
by driving safely. Good thing she brought the protective gear.

A person enters a bus and asks the driver how much a ticket costs. "2
|
||
|
units of the currency," the driver responds. The person is confused: 2
|
||
|
of what currency? After two seconds, the driver hands a ticket, closes
|
||
|
the doors, and starts driving. Cleverly, and with a satisfying sense of
|
||
|
comprehension, the person realises that the currency was time, and the
|
||
|
units were seconds. The bus then promptly stops, the driver looking
|
||
|
perplexed. "Was I wrong?" the person wonders, as the driver picks up an
|
||
|
LED lamp and touches the person twice. Nothing happens, the driver
|
||
|
apologises for "forgetting the new rules", and the person is thrown off
|
||
|
the bus -- after all, the person did not have two units of *the state of
|
||
|
being current*. (The funny point is that rules can be unclear and
|
||
|
change without making sense.)

-- What's the difference between a person *X* who studies the [279 Thule
|
||
|
asteroid](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/279_Thule) and a person *Y* who
|
||
|
destroys it?
|
||
|
|
||
|
-- X is thoughtful. Y just fought Thule.
