General Random Questions Thread

[BennyJackdaw]

Meh, sometimes I have a random question I want to ask, but I don't think it warrants its own topic. We all have moments like that where we want to ask random questions that are hard to just look up, but we don't feel we need to make a topic for them. That's why I asked for permission to start this General Questions thread for those certain things. For when you're trying to remember the name of a song or a movie, or when you're pondering something that happened to your body one day among other things. If you have a question, go ahead and ask it. ...Though if you're going to ask something PG related (assuming it's allowed) try to keep it in spoilers.

I used to play this game called Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom, which I kind of stopped playing cause I was worried about where the story would go. The game kind of had an oldschool 80s/90s kids-movie feel to it. Something about the game reminds me of this one movie where this boy is supposed to help this natural kingdom against this evil guy who almost looks like a mix between a Mortal Kombat character and a Dragon Ball Z character, and the boy's aided by a bunch of Kangaroo warriors who each represent an element, almost like a TMNT-esque movie except with Kangaroos instead of Turtles. I also remember that the kid actually said "**** happens" in the movie. I might be able to look it up, but I don't really want to see the movie, I just want to know what it was called. ...That, and why I end up thinking of that movie when Majin and the Forsaken Kingom comes to mind.

I'm not 100% sure, but that sounds like Warriors of Virtue.

That could be it. I just remember the kangaroos, and I think there was someone named Titania, though that might have been something else. There were also other guardians of this realm made up of other animals (I think one was a Minotaur), though the main heroes of the realm were all kangaroos. Though it probably is right, since I can't really think of any other movies with the same description.

Anyway, if anyone else has any other questions to ask about any random thing, go ahead and ask them here.

What actually contstitues a post on the forums? I know I read the answer somewhere but I can't remember where. It's any post that isn't in Off-Topic or Forum games, right?

I believe so. I know for a fact Forum Game posts don't count, but I don't know about Off-Topic posts.

Off topic certainly doesn't count either.

Why are parents always so critical of each other? Older parents to new ones especially.

[BennyJackdaw]

I'm not sure. Some people are different from others, so I guess it varies.

I think it's because no one wants to think that they did something wrong in raising their children and potentially messed them up somehow. So if another parent is doing something different, they convince themselves that other parents are doing it wrong, because that's more comfortable than confronting the possibility that they themselves are doing something wrong.


Of course, in truth, there's not always just one right way to raise a child.

[BennyJackdaw]

Got another question. This one's kind of weird.

Sometimes I get a random weird thought in my head, and it often messes my brain up and causes me to randomly blurt out nonsense. This is something I've never been able to explain, but it's been with me my whole life. My mom says it's part of my aspergers.

[Skall]

What exactly are you asking? Are you asking if it really is a part of Asperger's?


Your mom may be right, but much of the human brain is still a mystery to us. Some things get caught in the woodwork, get tangled with our nerves and transmitters, or just glitch.


Many things about the autism spectrum is still only speculation, with how diverse the ends of it tend to be. We only know so much about mental health as we know our minds, after all.


If it's a serious issue that is affecting your ability to communicate, I suggest seeing a professional about the matter.

   You know I always wondered if squids will evolve like us in time.

[Salakar Crocoli]

It's certainly a possibility, escpecially if all other life dies for some raeason, but I would say that it's every unlikely.

I assume that question was caused by splatoon?

Octopi, and maybe squids, but I'm not sure, are highly intelligent, maybe more so than many birds and mammals. I don't think it's a stretch to imagine that in the right conditions they could evolve human-like intelligence.

I recently saw something in the news that is driving me crazy. I read they recently threatened to attack us with 5 MILLION nukes. So does North Korea think America is stupid?
