Questions that cannot be answered

Post by Jason Larsen »

When we saw yesterday's Countdown, we heard some questions that cannot be answered. I have thought of some.

"How much can I eat before I fill myself to the brim?"
"How far can I go in my neighborhood until I tire myself out?"

Can anyone think of any more?

I would love to help you answer these questions Jason, please have hope! But I think we need some more information:

Have you ever measured your brim before?

What is it you are doing to your neighbourhood to tire yourself out?

This is my 999th post so I thought I'd use it to ask, what do you think I should ask in my 999th post?

My 3in999 questions that cannot be answered are
  • Sue, why didn't you use your 999 post to call Davy round to your house?

    Why did Jo Bo call the police saying he wanted his post rate back?

    And, is it a form of ambulance chasing to try to make this another backwards thread?

I think you should ask "what do you think I should ask in my 999th post?"

Ha Ha - You fell for it Corby.

I think.

Combining the questions that cannot be answered and the backwards thread is weirding out my brain.
Can I hide behind you, Jon, when Charlie arrives to hassle me?
