Who wants to be simple or silly? Can't we surprise people with silly in the midst of practical or a sudden streak of practicality while still enjoying our silliness?

Isn't doing too much of any one thing going to get boring? Even if that one thing is being silly?

Is there a difference between silliness and nonsensical?

Is nonsense always silly, even if not all silliness is nonsense?

Wouldn't silliness at some point just be normality?

Does that depend on your definition/idea of normality?

Doesn't normality depend on the sample size?
