Question #1 thoughts:

It really comes down to one's definition of "soup". Have seen several arguments for and against and it really comes down to what one considers soup to be.

As far as cereal goes, does this refer to dry cereal immersed in milk? Or are we considering a cereal porridge, like oatmeal? It would be an easier case to make for considering porridge as soup. Somewhat more difficult for considering milk poured over dry cereal as soup. This goes back to one's definition of "soup"

Question #3:

Pan pizzas (and other pizzas) are often square or rectangular rather than round. Pizzas are usually round cuz of π. Pizzas are considered a type of pie. Pie and Pi are intimately related. So it follows that pizza pies are usually round.

2. The meaning of life....
This has two definitive answers. Life is a cereal made by Quaker Oats. Life is a board game made by Milton Bradley.

6. Yes.
7. Roads. I hate flying, and I like driving V8 gas guzzlers.
8. Call loved ones to say cheerio.
9. The former. Living on a deserted island would be hell. Basically a slightly more beautiful version of solitary confinement.
10. Those pesky Ruskies.

3. Why is pizza round? Should it be?

Square pizzas are easily available.

Pizzas are round for the same reason that tortillas, crepes, dosas, utthapams, pancakes, rotis, puris are round. It is easy to take a batter or a piece of kneaded dough and spread it around in a circle with concentric strokes (batter) or repeating rolling with the pin (dough) than to make any other shape.

It is also interesting that for all possible shapes, the circle has the smallest perimeter for a given area. This means that a circular shape can be packed easily for delivery.

So true, people would be like, "obviously he is telling the truth because this is beyond crazy." You could write pamphlets about the TIGER debate, it would become a historical piece.

The wind. So I can better adjust my toss and my shots while playing tennis. And, of course, so I can better track my opponent shots.

The wind should be a light, translucent color so I could still see the ball. This visibility would be accomplished with special glasses or contact lenses -- cuz I do not want my opponents to have the same advantage.

You should be very concerned if you are called a cushion head. Especially if you are called a cushion bum shuffler.
Domo arigato, Mr Robot. But you have not answered part one of Question #11... What is a cushion head?

Can you imagine how that would change the game of golf. It would be crazy.

I feel like in tennis it wouldn't make tons of difference as usually you know what the wind is doing but it's hard to deal with.

A cushion head is not good, a bum shuffler is not good, and a cushion bum shuffler head is the worst.

1. If it's mostly liquid it's soup. If not, it isn't.
2. The Invisible Man.
3. Better question: why do so many people like pizza?
4. How would you have time to do anything in just one minute?
5. Nothing in case they accused me of being a witch and burned me at the stake.
6. They shouldn't be executing anybody legally or otherwise unless warped into the past 500 years ago.
7. Roads. I feel I would have better chances of surviving a road crash than one involving a plane.
8. Probably nothing because life may just be an illusion anyway.
9. Live 5 more years with 100 million bucks and spend that time paying the best doctors in the world to keep me alive for another 5 years and so on.
10. The penguin population would explode. Humans would all be drowned in the rising floodwaters.

Evasive answer. Still does not answer part 1 of Q #11. Not getting any conclusive answers from the local Google either. Is it Aussie slang?

Should I try to see if I can force an Aussie Google search? Can anyone else provide some enlightenment.

Okay first off I am very offended. Pizza is amazing.

Secondly, you will die no matter how much money you spend, it is inevitable.

Finally, is this fact that the melting ice would flood the world? I find that debatable.

Seems to be some sort of battle going on between Australia and Google. In January, the latter had threatened to pull their Aussie search engine. I have unsuccessfully tried to force an Aussie Google search using:

www.google.au
www.google.co.au


I did come across the following Aussie slang list. But, alas, no mention of cushion head or bum shuffler. I have however seen references to "pillow hair" and "pillow head" here & elsewhere.

Also, No luck with either term at this site:


I am starting to think this is a private joke between @Lleytonstation and @Federer and Del Potro
It seems that @SystemicAnomaly will never accept your ambiguous philosophy.
It is not a private joke. Nothing funny about being a cushion head.

The truth is there if you look in the right place.

Have already spent far too much time on uncovering this obscure slang. Sudaca indicated that he could not any definitive answers either. So I'm giving up on this and will assume that:

Cushion head = Pillow hair

Dark matter or people's thoughts, can't decide which.

Not all pizza is round- but round makes it taste better.

4. If you were warped 10 years back in time for one minute, what would you do?
Buy Bitcoin.

Roads- I need a place to drive my car.

I am not very good company, so I would opt for the 5.

10. If Antarctica suddenly went from -55 degrees Celsius on average to 10 degrees Celsius, how would it be colonized and by who?
I think the aliens who already live there should be given first choice.
