    1. If you a drop soap on the floor is the soap clean. Or is the floor dirty?

    2. Are oranges called oranges because oranges are orange. Or are or Oranges called oranges cuz they're oranges.

    3. Water can drown you, freeze you and boil you. Yet you need it to survive.

    4. In 100 years will we still be remembered?

    5. Game developers make the games as realistic as possible. But we play games to escape reality.

    6. Reading a book is just looking at a dead tree and hallucinating.

    7. Drinking alcohol is borrowing happiness from tommorow.

    8. Go to bed, you'll feel better tomorrow is the human version of turn it off and back on again.

    And those were the 8 best I could think of!

    I'll be honest, those are very philosophical and distant things. When I am in the shower I am usually thinking about what I've just eaten, what I am about to eat, what went well/bad that day and some impossible situation which could have happened that day. Of course that's if I am not singing!

    I'm going to be a real pedantic bastard here (all with good intentions) because that's who I am.
    They both approach a cleanliness equilibrium somewhere inbetween their two starting points (unless you periodically remove the unclean parts or expose fresh clean parts). This is the same for basically any cleaning product.

    The colour is named after the fruit - before the introduction of the fruit to the western world the colour was called yellow-red (modern sweet and bitter oranges ironically are not natural, they are genetic hybrids - mandarins, pomelos and citrons are the main "natural" ancestors of pretty much all modern citrus fruits including lemons, limes, grapefruits etc). The word Orange in relation to a place in southern France (and the origin of the modern House of Orange-Nassau in the Netherlands) was not originally linked to either the fruit or the colour, but the three have become conflated over time.

    Anything can kill you in the right quantities or at the right temperatures. There is no such thing as "totally harmless".

    Pretty decent chance, unless you and all your extended family suddenly die in a plane crash (although that in itself would most likely be memorable). How well do you know about people from 100 years ago?

    People play games to escape THEIR reality. A game is someone else's.

    Unless you don't get drunk

    Unless you're hungover

    It's pretty self-explanatory - alcohol makes you feel better now, at the expense of feeling worse in the future (the hangover)

    Alcohol also makes you do stupid things. In theory does that mean you are stealing stupidity from tomorrow as well or am I still misunderstanding your point?

    Ah yes, yes I see it now. That makes sense.

    I do d that if I get really hammered before going to bed if I have a nice strong cup of tea it reduces the impact of the hangover quite drastically!

    I don’t think thats how show soap works exactly, likewise muddy hands placed on soap can easily dirty the soap faster than it can clean it.

    Heat can burn you, melt you, set you ablaze yet if you’re locked in -70c you’ll beg for it ;)

    Provided you ain’t famous, you’ll be thought about as much as you/we think of people from the 1920’s, that’s how I see it.

    tree could technically still be alive depending on how the wood was obtained, but damaged yes.

    Imagination has its similarities to hallucinations but not locked to a trance.

    be one of those who don’t get hangovers

    it’s one of those batteries where you can’t use the device whilst it charges, or the battery will keep going down till you leave it to charge.
