Society & Culture Pointless and dumb yet entertaining conversations...

[youngsaint]

Today at work we were discussing the differences between a rock and a stone and when it is either...

Size, shape, weight, beauty and roughness were all chucked out there...

What other pointless conversations are there?

 

[La Dispute]

A mate and I had an ongoing one.

'Is food from rivers and lakes Seafood?'

Apparently it is which I think is just shit.

 

[darsh!]

Sounds very interesting to me... i want to when a stones a stones and a rocks a rock

I had a long discussion with a mate on which country's flag is the best, i think the end result was canada's is cool and new zealand and australias's look too similar...something like that anyway...good times

Me and my friend have had so many conversations of that nature that I can't remember any of them. One of my pet hates though is people who don't like that sort of talk, or find it wierd. Much more interesting than shitty small talk.

Yes.

And they certainly go out of their way to derail the conversation.

w***ers.

You just reminded me of one between me and a friend that has just been flogged to no end.

Pet Hate and Pet Peeve. It is a pet hate!!!!

Whether teeth are bones.

Inside joke vs In-house joke.

Whats a fruit and whats vegetable.

rule of thumb is if it has seeds its a fruit, so technically pumpkin is a fruit.

From doctor dictionary

A fruit is actually the sweet, ripened ovary or ovaries of a seed-bearing plant. A vegetable, in contrast, is an herbaceous plant cultivated for an edible part (seeds, roots, stems, leaves, bulbs, tubers, or nonsweet fruits). So, to be really nitpicky, a fruit could be a vegetable, but a vegetable could not be a fruit.

Whenever me or my mate says a sentence or two with a few words that rhyme we end up getting into a compeititon where we have to say a word that rhymes with the chosen word.

I once got a mate pissed off by arguing that abortion should be compulsory (he's strongly anti-abortion) and using stats like 0% child crime.

One of my favourite quotes is from Irish rugby player Brian O'Driscoll.

"Knowledge is knowing that tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad."

Just stay out of my way... or you'll pay! LISTEN to what I say!

Hey, why don't I just go eat some hay, make things out of clay, lay by the bay? I just may! What'd ya say?

I said that I could go to the bush and grab a wild horse and run it in the melbourne cup, there was about 20 minutes where my mate was explaining it has to be a thoroughbred but I dont rekn they could tell the difference I would just paint it or something so it looked good.

A wild horse would run way faster than all the other horses as well

Might be hard finding a jockey that could stay on it though. You'd probably have to get someone like Tom Burlinson to ride it.

 

[clivewaterhousen]

I always maintained that I wouldnt even need a jockey or I would just get one on at the start and then ill get him to jump off and let the horse run off

 

[lixler]

mine were dripping grease and tasted pretty bad

and i just now spilled orange soda in my eye

I spent an hour long train ride arguing with my mate about names (surnames) needing a vowel in it.

We ended with teh agreement that names must have a vowel in it but there are many documented cases of names that have no vowels.

These convos are what kept me going through uni tbh lol
