woot! I might, but won't, get baseballed. That calls for a celebration!

... can I get three cheers?
Only if you cheer for yourself. And do it away from this topic, you're getting too annoying, and that was NOT a proper question.

Just not in this thread. This is the APF topic, you're supposed to ask questions here.

Welcome back, Gareeku. :)

Should I keep my uber-old doodles or should I BURN them?

Why do I think my uber-old doodles look like crap? D:

Would Gar kick my butt if I was a -really bad- draggy? :B

How come all the other dragons can breathe fire, but I can't? D:

Do as you will.

Because you compare it to stuff.

I'd say so.

It has something to do with burritos. Which reminds me, stay away from me if you ever have the stuff.

Public broadcast.

Because the root word is obtain, which has a B in it.

Having run out of useful questions....


Where might I go to find some questions that the APF's might reasonably be expected to answer?
How about if I limit that to those that the other folks watching might find amusing as well? (obviously, one would hope that the APF's find these amusing to start with...)

We don't find questions - they find us. (aka: Don't be so lazy.)
Make it so.

One or two, yeah.
Well, if you sweat, you need to refill somehow.
They're tasty and.. err.. I.. err.. don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, look over there; an obvious distraction!

Is there a way to find a cure for this and plant it in a pill?

Hilary

Why do we cry when we're sad?

Kenji

All this talk of blood drives in the DMFA forums got me going.
Is it possible for blood to change types? Cause growing up, everyone, including doctors, always told me I was A+, or A, I forget. But last time I donated blood, they sent me a donor card saying that I was O. Now... either someone's been lying, cause my dad has no "i" blood in him, someone really goofed in testing,  or my blood changed. Any hints?

Kitsune Ascendant

Are not ronin warriors and g gunam the coolest anime shows in existance?

what about zoids?

speaking of which, why'd they have to kill that with fuzors?
I may be a bit young to be worrying about it so much, but I'm not changing this sig until I find true love.
yappities by silverfoxr, and are awesome.  Thanks!

Cure for what, seriously? I haven't been paying much attention so something's bound to go whistling past my head.

A way of relieving emotional stress. I first read this and thought it said, "why do we cry when we're happy."

Seriously, I doubt it. Someone, somewhere is wrong, because I'm fairly certain blood type is genetic. And genes don't mutate unless exposed to radiation. Even so, a change in blood type shouldn't be a possible result.

I liked Gundam Wing's story the best and Stardust Memory's opening theme the most. What little I saw of Ronin Warriors was forgettable.

I liked Zoids and Zoids Chaotic Century. My only regret was not being able to watch the anime to the end and compare it to the manga. Speaking of which, I think the entire series is discontinued. Pity.

I forget, what were Zoid Fuzors? I only vaguely remember seeing commercials of it on TV, back when the WB still had afternoon shows (Jackie Chan Adventures! Yay!).

I go when the mood strikes me. Usually when the questions pile up. I expect them to start piling up more starting Wednesday, when college starts for me and I'll be worrying myself about getting from Point A to Point B, finding out where Point A and B are, getting into a routine, and stressing about what homework I got. Oh, and wether or not I'll be questioned on how I'll deal with the homework and studying and how often I use my laptop for just fun. I worry about my Trickster friends. I'm sorry, am I boring you?  :[

What, exactly, is 'pocky?' Has the APF answering this ever eaten it? And, if so, does it taste good?

Zedd

why are my tears so corrosive that they melt through old style ceramic tubs?

why do people play the game of life if they don't believe they can win?

if emotions could be turned into a power source with something other then solex then which emotions would be strongest?

Pretzel or Biscuit sticks dipped in fudge of various flavors. Never had them. N/A.

Maybe the old ceramic tubs are in such a bad state that anything can melt through them.

Not all games are about winning or losing. And even those that do have a winner can be fun to play for everyone, not just for the one who wins. If all you care about is winning, you'll miss enjoying the game.

The most intense ones.

That's a forum-related question. This isn't the place to ask them, lest we all feel the wrath of Damaris.

(*Prepares to be shot*)

"The hand of the Damaris will bring a terrible plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses and donkeys and camels and on your cattle and sheep and goats.  The Damaris will bring locusts into your country tomorrow. They will cover the face of the ground so that it cannot be seen. They will devour what little you have left after the hail, including every tree that is growing in your fields. They will fill your houses and those of all your officials..."

llearch n'n'daCorna

... with officials? (I can't think of anything worse than an office full of bureaucrats...)


perhaps I should have chosen something better to ask? Perhaps not...


Why is it that chlorophyll generates that specific green colour, and what makes the yellow colour on new growth in that particular shrub? (I'll see if I can find a name for it, and come back, mmkay?)

*picks out a question from the pile*
Plants use sunlight for their photosynthesis. The light that they need is the red one. So they absorbe it and the other colors get reflected off and thus can be seen by you.
Colorful blossoms are there to attract insects/etc to distribute their pollen to the other plants.

The lighter color reflects more of the light to prevent burning the delicate new leafs.

I'm sorry. I just randomly wandered in here too.  I don't think I've read the last fifteen pages.

Out of curiousity-  If someone asks a serious question, do any of the APFs ever do research?  The library staffer in me wants to know.

Depends on what we feel like. (At least in my case.)

Quote from: BillBuckner on September 25, 2006, 06:19:10 PM

Partly. Fact is that you can only see those colors that something doesn't absorb. So something black absorbs pretty much the whole spectrum and something white does not.
