vertiginous question

The name Benj Hellie gave to this question: "Why am I me and not someone else?". It's called "vertiginous" because it makes people's heads spin, especially the heads of P-zombies. Also called the "even harder problem of consciousness", since it's even harder to solve than David Chalmers' hard problem of consciousness. Materialism can't seem to answer it. Its unanswerability and the fact that the self exists at all may possibly imply that solipsism is true, that animals aren't sentient, and that this is all a simulation where everyone else is an NPC. It may also imply that I'm immortal and that my consciousness will last forever, living as everyone.

How a nonsentient P-zombie NPC reacts after hearing about it: "The vertiginous question is meaningless. If I were someone else, I wouldn't be me."

Question Complex

When someone is prone to asking very personal questions

"Bro, did you get that girl last night"
"No, because she seemed offended when I asked her about her clit"
"Yeah, you always did have that question complex"

yellow question-mark

Da "pee-pattern symbol" in da snow dat gets created by da natural movement of yer "nozzle" --- i.e., da urine-stream "starts out strong" and initially lands several feet away due to yer full and "pressurized" bladder, gradually progresses around in a sideways-curve, and then forms a straight line back towards you as da stream-force tapers off and so yer lulu progressively droops till it's eventually pointing almost straight downwards; it then makes a final separate "dot" of yellow in da spot just ahead of yer feet when you perform a "sphincter stripping" --- i.e., you tense yer bowel-muscles to "get out da last of it" --- at da end.

When visiting friends' houses where there is often a bit of a line to da WC and so I may need to unobtrusively "take it outdoors", I always move a few feet away from da porch before taking a whiz, so dat I don't gross anyone out by their finding a yellow question-mark too close to where they'd need to walk.

Statistical Question

Any question that can be represented by data on a graph. A Non-Statistical Question is a question that CANNOT be represented by any data and can be simply answered.

For instance, a Statistical Question would be:
How many minutes does a typical sixth grader read each day?
This is a Statistical Question because, it can be represented by data telling how many minutes a sixth grader spends reading each day.
Non-Statistical Question:
What is your best friend’s favorite TV show?
This is a Non-Statistical Question because, it can be simply answered and doesn’t need any data to tell or represent what your best friend’s favorite TV show is.

Repeat the Question

When you force someone to repeat the question you were just asked. Using "it slipped my mind" as an excuse.

Gina: *asks question*
Ellie: *was tuned out* could you repeat the question?
Gina: ...
Ellie: I heard you, but it slipped my mind
Gina: yeah of course!

Jane: *in corner* sus
