Skepticism
Afternoon Inquisition 12.15
Today it’s your turn to ask the question. I can’t guarantee you’ll get an answer, but ask away anyway!
If you could ask any Skepchick any question, what would it be?

Would you like to come up to my apartment and look at my etchings?
Ha, that was a joke. Really, here is one, I need some help. How do ghost orbs show up on digital photography? I need to explain it to my wife.
Ohh, ohh, I have another one. Why are skepchicks so much sexier than non-skepchicks?
This question is for Rebbeca; Will you marry me?
[Oh come on, you all knew that was coming. You’re all just jealous that I got in first. ;) ]
@Gabrielbrawley:
1. Yes, we would all love to see your etchings.
2. Orbs are merely light reflecting off of dust and moisture in the air

3. Because. We were intelligently designed that way.
@Gold:
You know, I was going to say the first person to propose to rebecca loses 10 pts.
I wish I did.
@Elyse: Thank you, this is just what I had been trying to find and failed to do so on my own.
What do skepchicks scream during orgasm? “On the other hand!” just doesn’t seem like it would trip off the tounge.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
@Geran Smith: To get to the other side.
Boxers or briefs?
If you could change on thing about men in general what would it be?
Frick. Make that “If you could change one thing about men in general what would it be?”
I asked this via Twitter and got a lovely response from carr2d2 a lil while ago, but…
Where were you ladies in high school when I was a lonely nerd girl?!
I change my question to: Are these questions going to be answered?
@Elyse: Fair call :) I’ll retroactivly accept the penalty.
On a more serious note though; It’s a common question but I’m not sure if it’s been asked here. Of all the quackery that’s out there if you could pick one that turned out to be true, what would it be and why?
Which two natural numbers, when cubed, add up to a cube of another natural number? (Besides zero.)
First one to answer this question gets 1 brownie point.
What’s the oddest link/question/comment anyone’s submitted on the contact page?
@Freiddie: 3 and 4
Any advice to a wanna be Skepchick?
Any advice to a wanna be kick ass blogger?
How do y’all find the time to keep up this blog, have social lives, and work?
@Detroitus: 3^3 + 4^3 = ???
Nope, doesn’t work. Try harder. :)
@Freiddie: I have discovered a truly marvellous proof of this, which this comment box is too narrow to contain.
@Freiddie: oh, you said ‘cubed’… For some reason I read it as squared… I thought that was too easy.
Stacey: Why are you so awesome? … Also, what time does your plane get in Wednesday?
If you could change a single event in your life, what would it be, and why?
Where do I start?
“isn’t it your turn to walk the dogs?”
“you drank how much?”
“that’s a kinky idea – do you think teek would like to join in?”
All of the above are normally followed by “are you going to stop hitting me soon?”
(the questions change when you marry one of them ;) )
can I have a cookie now?
About the value of patience and good nature in the face of nonsense and egotism. I can’t do it. How do you all do it? DO you all do it?
@Freiddie: 625, this was the cartalk puzzler.
@Freiddie: Oh wait, that was a different question.
@LOLkate: That question works really well beside your avatar.
@Gold: My answer is no, but only because you spelled my name wrong.
@davew: “If you could change one thing about men in general what would it be?â€
I’d give them the gift of menstruation.
@TheSkepticalMale: Trick question…it’s you that’s awesome, not me, as evidenced by your win of SOotM for the last two months. And you know when my last flight to Phoenix gets in. :)
@Kimbo Jones: “Are these questions going to be answered?”
This one was, so yes. :)
This is a fun topic. I’ll try to answer as many as possible!
@Rebecca: D’oh!
What is the answer to life, the universe and everything?
@Kimbo Jones:
Neither. Skepchicks don’t wear men’s underwear
@Gabrielbrawley:
Skepchick.org of course.
@Elyse: Never?
@Steve DeGroof:
I think the oddest link/question was after I posted about breastfeeding in public, Rebecca got an email from Hooter Hiders asking if they could link to us and put her on the mailing list.
Now Rebecca gets updates on all the latest in breastfeeding gear.
Of course, that’s just my favorite :)
Jen: What’s your favorite film?
@Gabrielbrawley:
nope. not even sam.
Elyse: What is your favorite alcoholic beverage?
Who is the cutest skepchick?
Rebecca: If you had to spend the rest of your life on a desert island with only one person, who would it be?
@Gabrielbrawley: Yeah, the process of the skepchicks themselves weighing in on who is the cutest skepchick could be really hot, if not somewhat volatile.
Who would win in a fight, a shark or a bear?
@Nicole: “Where were you ladies in high school when I was a lonely nerd girl?!”
I got here as soon as I could!
@Gold: “Of all the quackery that’s out there if you could pick one that turned out to be true, what would it be and why?”
Homeopathy. Think of all the pain and suffering we could cure with water!
Which skepchick is the most fun in a bar?
@Steve DeGroof: @Elyse mentioned the Hooter Hiders, which was pretty funny. Oddest link, though, would probably be the semen cookbook. Oh, and then there was the angry email I got from the correspondence school I blasted awhile back, which I think I still haven’t posted. Hm.
How do you take your coffee?
@Rebecca: What about the psychic who wanted a link from your site?
Do you have you’re towel?
@Nicole: Being a lonely nerd girl myself! Without the internet! I didn’t get access to the internet until I went to college. Then I got even nerdier.
@TheSkepticalMale: That’s a topic I could go on about forever. I used to default to The Third Man, but as I’ve gotten older I think my tastes have changed a bit. Let me think about it some more and come back after I get home from work. :)
@Elyse: hey, speak for yourself.
maybe i’m revealing too much, but i actually do for work.
Is this the right room for an argument?
@davew:
Back hair.
@jtradke:
Bear. He just has to get out of the water and have the shark try to chase him a few feet. Game over.
I have this internal vision of you all as witty and urbane sophisticates. But from some of your comments I get the impression that it wasn’t always so. When did you become happy with who you are so that you became such attrative and interesting people?
