I recently watched a Louis CK special, and one of his jokes was about his young daughter and her never ending pursuit of why things are the way they are. The game is as follows:

Person A asks a question. Person B asks "Why?", person c answers, person d asks "Why?" and so on and so forth until we make our way to the bottom of the barrel or waddle into abstract or profound ideas and concepts.

Example:

A: Why do bird go south during the winter?
B: Because birds don't like the cold, and they'd flourish in a warmer climate?
C: Why?
D: Because some birds are unable to survive the cold weather or would be unable to preserve the lives of their incoming children in that particular climate.
E: Why?

And so on and so forth. The initial question will decide the fate of this game, so I'll leave that up to one of you.

Why is the earth round, and not flat?

Welcome to Hell. This thread must be the new admission. *writes down on some paper*

*sigh* I imagine it would be difficult for anyone to poop out a triangular object. I mean **** son, that would hurt like a mother****er.

Edit: Since Cosaga's post would have killed the thread, let's go with mine. -_-

Why would it hurt? He's God! He can just will away the pain, if he even feels any.

After reading those replies, that might actually be for the best. In any case, go with Cosaga's post as it might lead to an interesting discussion.

From this point forward, "Why not?" is an acceptable counter question, but I'd rather people didn't use it just for the sake of using it. It would also be nice if we kinda steered clear of potty humor and tried to have a more meaningful discussion through the game.

Pardon me for trying to end a tragedy waiting to happen. It could have been good if the first 2 posters decided to take it seriously. And seeing as I deliberately took the post away from God as we know what happens when you people see that three letter pronoun.

Anywho, I'll finish this off with a new question. VD (lol your initials are VD), sorry but a usual counter to my why not reverts back to the question at hand, and we don't want to get into God posts.

Why do hot dog's come in packages of 10, but hot dog buns only come in packages of 8?

Strategy. They want you to buy two packs of hotdog buns instead of one so they can get more of your money.

@ Cosaga: If the members of this forum are unable or unwilling to have a mature conversation that may or may not involve a God, then perhaps we should end this here. I was hoping to be able to discuss something beyond the material world, be it spiritual or religious is nature, but it appears I was wrong to assume that was possible. I'll leave this thread to you guys and hope my idea doesn't go to waste because hot dogs and poo are deemed more important.

I'll try to think of another game that's more "friendly".

You actually wanted a mature conversation in a Why? game on a gaming forum >_>?

I surely didn't expect it to turn into "Why can't god poop triangle poo?" and I didn't realize this forum was beyond mature discussion just because a few sections are devoted to a mod.

As I stated before, you guys are obviously free to do whatever you want with the thread, but it hurts to see what I thought was a good idea be devoted to childish humor. What Spunky posted after Cosaga is what I was looking for in terms of maturity, but you can only go so far without the conversation because esoteric in nature.

But why?

1 pack of Hot dogs = 10

2 packs of buns = 16

3 packs of buns = 24

4 packs of buns = 32

5 packs of buns = 40

You'd need to buy 5 packs of buns and 4 packs of hot dogs to get a total of 40 of each, but that's a lot of hot dogs.

If for more money why not make it 9 and 7 making the gap between getting the same amount of both larger, thus getting them more money?

For crying out loud...THIS IS A FORUM. You are bound to get messages like that, it's what keeps the forums alive and adds some humor to it. In no way do we have to be mature when playing a freaking game.

So cut all the crap now, and let's continue before this is closed, just think of anything you want:

Why does a wheel roll?
