Burning Questions

If no one was in a forest and a tress fell, would it make any noise? Is the glass 1/2 full or 1/2 empty? Why do store that are open 24 hours a day have locks on the doors? Why are manhole covers round?

Answer #1

I think the half full/half empty question depends on whether your working towards emptying it or filling it up

Answer #2

those questions frustrate me

Answer #3

1)yes it still makes a noise,it just means no one was around to here it. 2)Wichever one you prefer. 3)Because some 24 hours stores close on holidays 4)because they didnt want it to be square or a triangle..Is that so bad?

Answer #4

Nope…without sound vibrations reaching your ear, there is no sound

It’s 1/2 full…nothing can be 1/2 empty

Power outage = security

They are less likely to buckle and stick out like the corners of square ones would do…they’re stronger under the weight of vehicles.

Answer #5

the 24 hour open stores are required by law to have a locking door. and half full, half empty, depends on your point of view on optimism and pessimism
