    Why couldn’t I eat the whole slice?
    Because I just had supper?
    Because I didn’t have the calories?
    Because of the chocolate chip cookie I had earlier?
    Or the KitKat?

    Has life ever given you lemons? If it did, could you make limoncello cake instead of lemonade?

    Google? What is that? :D
    These lemon blossoms look good, but can you make them with a thin lemon glaze instead of a thicker lemon icing?

    Can one speaking the same words cause it to be heard as a question or a statement, depending on the inflection in one's voice? Does not a period or question mark serve the roll of voice inflection in the written word? Right?

    Does not a question require an inflection of curiosity? Wouldn’t it simply be a case of punctuation being used, or misused, to mask a statement as a question to which I was referring? Does the following strike you as a question or a statement?

    “I am doing great, thanks?”

    And you notice an absence of inflection exactly how? Perhaps in the way you read it? Is not the perceived "misuse" then simply due to your inference? Would you have made that inference if you had known my intent?
    Do the following strike you as questions or statements?
    Did you just get here? You just got here?
    Are you going to the movie? You're going to the movie?

    Ouch , my head hurts just reading those posts above. Too much thinking required for this early. I haven't even had my coffee yet.
    So, to pose a proper question so @skahtboi doesn't get his knickers in a knot :D

    How is everyone?

    • You are a wascally wabbit, aren't you?
    • Could 2021 be any worse?
    • To make any statement a question, you just have to add the word "right", right? :D
    • But I'm just being a wascally wabbit...

    Since whales have been observed having REM during sleep, does that indicate they are dreaming?
    What are they dreaming of?
    Lunch?

    Wouldn't it be weird to dream with only half your brain asleep, with literally one eye open?
    Could you imagine breathing being a conscious thing instead of automatic?

    Why do you have to go to the gym to swim? Can't you just fill your bathtub? :D

    Or maybe I could jump off the dock if there wasn't ice on the lake?

    Wouldn't they be dreaming of music? Maybe R.E.M.'s "Nightswimming"?
