There is an answer?

neil_swann80 · 12-03-2023, 01:33 AM

Can you think of a question that doesn't?

What is the final digit of pi?

Who shaves the barber?

Anyone care to list a question with no answer?

neil_swann80 · 12-03-2023, 02:14 AM

Wouldn't the answer be that the decimal representation of pi is infinite?

Or perhaps more simply... there is no final digit of pi?

Is pi an irrational number as well as an infinite one? Isn’t the final digit of pi 0 or 1 in binary?

Is the Pope Catholic?

Did the robotic lover of pbooks not ask if there were questions with no answers?

Is a bear Catholic? Does the Pope crap in the woods?

And who does shave the barber?

Why do you want to know who shaves the barber?

neil_swann80 · 12-04-2023, 05:41 AM

Wouldn't he simply shave himself? Is he a vampire?

Martinoptic · 12-04-2023, 11:15 AM

If he were a chupacabra perhaps he wouldn’t need to shave?

Does the barber suffer from Alopecia universalis?

As for the barber & shaving? A self-reference paradox.

Quote:

In a small village in Erewhon, the only barber in the village declared that he shaved everyone in the village who did not shave himself and only men who do not shave themselves. So who shaves the barber?

neil_swann80 · 12-04-2023, 10:52 PM

The barber is female?

Martinoptic · 12-05-2023, 05:41 AM

Or could the barber be a they? Does anyone else feel use of “they” an abuse of the language? Why not an “it”?

Apologies if any non-binaries take offence. I’m not directing this at them just the language.

neil_swann80 · 12-05-2023, 05:56 AM

Did you hear about the non-binary prospector? Perhaps there's gold in them/their hills?

Martinoptic · 12-05-2023, 07:50 AM

Wouldn’t that have been a good bad joke?
