      Kurt Vonnegut as represented in the novel Breakfast of Champions, wearing sunglasses so the others could not see that his eyes were holes through which they could see another universe.

      Thanks for this question. I was wondering if I would ever be able to squeeze the Bay City Rollers into an answer.

      What? No. Of course there is a Dog.
      Have you been congregating with the Dog Atheists again?
      Do you think those sticks just fetch themselves? Do you think sirens in the night don't exist just so they will be barked at? These are the Cosmological and the Teleological Arguments for the existence of Dog.

      You have a name for a Dog. I refer here to the Ontological Argument for the existence of Dog.

      Besides, if there were no Dog would there be dog laws? This is the Moral argument for the existence of Dog.

      (I dedicate this answer to my friend Peter John, who encouraged me to major in philosophy by telling me I could always teach.)

      The ambience? There is a sleep drug called Ambien, so I will go with that. The ambience.

      Yes. Unless you count honey. Then, no. But otherwise, yes. I know, I know, it's bee vomit; but you have to understand I mix that bee vomit with apple cider vinegar and pour it over cabbage. Or sometimes I put that bee vomit in tea.

      Well, it's not blue. That's a rather unfair stereotype. If anything, blue is blue because people keep telling it it's blue.

      At the risk of sounding like Erwin Schrödinger, I'm going to say all colors are equally sad and not sad at the same time. Especially if they are in a box and you can't see them. Yes, especially then.

      It's summer in Antarctica right now. Truthfully, it is always summer in Antarctica in my heart.

    16. David Raffin

      Yes, it is true. The only exception to this rule, and this is important to note, is when it is false. Otherwise, yes, always.
      I hope this is helpful to you.

      Puns don't go bad. Puns are either born good or born bad. My view on puns is strictly deterministic. Therefore, even bad puns are not responsible for their actions.

      May your enemies fail to thrive and become mired in mediocrity. Let them then be trapped under a bookcase and besieged by rats.
