"Can you see what I see?"
#1: Jan 23rd 2023 at 5:39:53 PM

Sometimes, over in the "ask the above poster a question" games, some users can't help but ask goofy, non-serious questions, often associated with memes or other works, which, while amusing, not everyone is always into, especially if they were hoping to answer a legitimate question about themselves. In that case, how about a thread for all your joke question needs? Any questions that don't require a serious answer are welcome. Of course, you can answer your questions however you want (within TV Tropes' rules, naturally), but not taking the questions seriously is encouraged. If your question/answer is a reference to an existing work (which most probably will be), linking to the work is encouraged, though not required.

If you're looking to ask/answer more serious or legitimate questions, you want this thread instead.

For an example of the type of questions we're looking for:

Why is there smoke coming out of your oven?

[down]Indeed, but before you can understand recursion, you must first understand recursion, but before you can understand recursion, you must first understand recursion, but...
