@discobot wanted me to answer a question, but I’m not really sure what it’s question ever _was_. Tripler @discobot can’t think for itself. ---

The unanswered question. To those who know and understand him, there’s a certain poetry to discobot’s words, and an even deeper poetry to the silence between the words. Your shunning is thus, in a way, profound: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/trkFgIMC-Ks/hqdefault.jpg "The Unanswered Question") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trkFgIMC-Ks) I pity you.
