Okay, I don’t even know who **dude robert** is, but the above thread made me laugh and laugh and laugh. Hilarious.

Anyway, my finger itched yesterday, but now it doesn’t. What’s going on?

How many unstable isotopes should I put in my radiator for it to work properly? What is the half-life of a well-maintained radiator?

If I accidentally put oil down the radiator, does that kill off the brake fluid?

I was surprised to see the **dude** ask whether there have now been sufficient tests of Bell’s inequality violations to truly dispense with the local hidden variable interpretation of QM. Wait!! [I just noticed that wasn’t the **dude**!](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=829441) Phew! I was confusing it [with this one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=829313), about a “chemist man” who gives a dragon some “chemistry stuff” that makes the dragon very thirsty and then the dragon’s stomach explodes. Yes, that definitely has the authentic “dude” vibe. But it’s basically the same kind of _Gedankenexperiment_ demonstrating similar intellectual curiosity, only operating at a slightly different level. It’s just that most of the **dude** ’s _Gedankenexperiments_ [involve dragons](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=828510) instead of photons.

My candidate for the next question:  
I seen a BBQ thread called “Help 'the dude” find his new thread titles". It’s hilarious. Who is this idiot?

I drank three pints of water and a few hours later I pissed myself. Am I dying?

If I shit on something, does that make it mine?

😃 This one kills me. Every time I read it, I laugh more 😃

I had a real life “Dude” moment this morning. There was a thread hanging from the back of my shirt and I couldn’t reach it properly to cut it so I said, out loud: “Why are things annoying?!”

Oh God. This gives me flashbacks to that cringeworthy scene in **Dumb and Dumber** – “I hope you’re not using the toilet, it’s broken.” :eek:

Did you post in GQ to get the answer? If not, you can’t compare yourself to the inimitable **dude**. 😉

Could a dragon win a fight against an M1A2 tank? Not an ordinary dragon, though. I mean that one fine day, a chemist man comes along, and says dragon, I’m gonna give you some chemistry stuff, and he does, and the chemistry stuff gives the dragon superpowers. And the dragon says, gee thanks chemist man, now I have superpowers. And then the dragon sees an M1A2 tank coming down the road, and it decides to use its superpowers to attack it. Would the dragon win? Would it?

How about two dragons?

What if a tank didn’t come along down the road for a long time, so the two dragons that both had superpowers got really bored, and so they decided to fight each other, because they were, like, really bored? Then what? Which dragon would win? Would the other dragon use its superpowers to run away? There’s so much I need to know. Sometime I feel like my head will explode. Do you think my head will explode?

And it’s normal that I walk around thinking that my head will explode, right?

I just want to make sure everyone knows I’m really different, but also want their assurances that I’m not.
