No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

As a not quite middle aged dude, I only just now figured out how to see magic eye stuff. I tried a couple times in elementary school but didn't get it so I stopped. Had a few drinks earlier, stumbled on some magic eye pic that I could see clear as day and it blew my mind a little

This is a great random question. Me likey

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I'm full of random questions

If you could only eat 1 dish forever without worrying about vitamin intake or macros, what would it be?

What would your plan be if you woke up tomorrow and everyone else on earth disappeared without a trace?

What's a skill you want to learn and what's stopping you from learning it?

What's the largest animal you think you could beat in a fight with just your hands?

You stumble upon all the dragonballs, what is your wish?

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Oh this is easy!

Lasagne - its so versatile. I'd usually keep it realy light on mince and boost the vegetables, though. So many textures and ways to play with flavours, it'd be ages before it got old.

Alone? I dunno. Sleep or gooning, probably

Largest animal: a med-small dog? Like a whippet or something.

I don't understand the dragonballs stuff. Probably just too them down a hill (we've got some really steep streets for this in NZ)

Good choice garfield

No survival plans?

Reasonable choice

The dragonballs from the manga/anime dragonball summon shenron the dragon when you collect them all and you're allowed to make 1 wish, even including bringing people back from the dead

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Oh, one wish?

That's hard.

I think I'd wish for humanity to not have insecurities. I figure then we'd just have to figure out how to neuter greed and we'd be sorted from our own annihilation... (and inordinately better off both individually and as a species)

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

I think that's a deep answer. Insecurities rarely create good situations.

Since you're from New Zealand, do you own sheep? Have you put a toothbrush on the fence? Do you like Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement?

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 hours ago

Ha - We've got this new hybrid proto-sheep going on. I've got one 17 y/o and a 15 y/o and they're basically thick as two planks, bleat about irrelevant things and shit everywhere, so yeah, I've probably got sheep :)

  • Nah, the kids are alright, I just like teasing them for being trolls (and I get it back, don't worry! Bald AF and regularly reminded)

I haven't seen Germaine in a while but Brett's doing well. He hasn't taken me up on the millionaire munchfest or billionaire BBQ though, so it seems like we're stuck with the 1%ers for a while yet...
