Post by: lazs2 on April 28, 2004, 08:09:20 AM
Do you still beat your wife?

Only yes or no answers will be counted.

Invalid poll. The question assumes the respondent has a wife. No woman has a wife, so clearly women cannot vote in this poll. Which is what you wanted, I guess...

Also, the poll has been posted in the wrong forum, which is bound to skew the results.

  Yes, I still do not continue to beat my wife, and I always will, never.

I love that song by the Dead Milkmen - Gonna Beat My Wife.  

For those that don't know it, its a take off of a James Brown song and a joke on him.   Hit the kazzaa and go find it for a good laugh.:D

shane... I will admit that women are usefull..  voting is not one of their uses tho.

So far... the poll proves that while wife beating is rampant among AH players... very few will admit it.    

I expected frivolous answers and scorn from the furballers but expected the missunz doodz and sky accountants to follow directions.

Arg... WTF. either let us delete our own posts or move the new topic and reply buttons to opposite sides of the screen.

This is in reply to (New bettle poll... )

The correct answer is mu!

is mu!

---------------------------------------
mu as defined by dictionary.com



1. The country code for Mauritius.

2. /moo/ The correct answer to the classic trick
question "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?". Assuming
that you have no wife or you have never beaten your wife, the
answer "yes" is wrong because it implies that you used to beat
your wife and then stopped, but "no" is worse because it
suggests that you have one and are still beating her.
According to various Discordians and Douglas Hofstadter the
correct answer is usually "mu", a Japanese word alleged to
mean "Your question cannot be answered because it depends on
incorrect assumptions".

Hackers tend to be sensitive to logical inadequacies in
language, and many have adopted this suggestion with
enthusiasm. The word "mu" is actually from Chinese, meaning
"nothing"; it is used in mainstream Japanese in that sense,
but native speakers do not recognise the Discordian
question-denying use. It almost certainly derives from
overgeneralisation of the answer in the following well-known
Rinzei Zen teaching riddle:

A monk asked Joshu, "Does a dog have the Buddha nature?"
Joshu retorted, "Mu!"

I asked for yes or no answer so your answer would be thrown out.    also... it would not be the correct answer for people who have stopped beating their wife nor, would it be the correct answer for those who continue to do so ...

Post by: lazs2 on April 28, 2004, 12:38:51 PM
so.... it would appear that everyone who answered the poll properly so far (had to throw out some answers as nonresponsive) admits to beating their wife now or in the past.

Lazs - you cocked it up. According to Levi, you have to have at least SEVEN possible answers. Yes/No doesn't cut it - I am told.

How do you get a "yes" outta that?  

The question is "Do you still beat your wife?"

I never have, never will.  Those who have and/or continue to do so are not men.

But...it's your poll.  You think that equates to a yes...I think your data is going to be flawed and therefore so will your conclusions.  watermelon in, watermelon out.

Post by: SELECTOR on April 29, 2004, 12:31:51 PM
are you still allowed to beat your wife with a stick as thisck as your thumb...

did you know that there is an old english law that has never been changed ( so it is still valid, to a point) that it is leagal to shoot a welshman in the back with a bow and arrow...
