Hey, that's pretty scary. :whoa: :whoa: :whoa: :whoa: :whoa: :whoa: ..from "nothing" it would be very easy to drift into "anything", and then where would we be ? :eek: :eek: :eek:

We would have gone from nowhere to anywhere. Perfectly obvious to me.

Topic drift from nothing to something would imply that nothing was in fact something to begin with, so where are we now? Are we only just now truly on the topic of nothing, and if so what were the last 7,000 pages about? Nothing? Does this mean that by allowing the topic to drift we have now gotten ourselves back on track to the original topic which was nothing? Does this mean that nothing is nothing and something is nothing as well?
No more coffee for me............ :eek:

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Something ventured, still nothing gained.
So, if I venture something, and still gain nothing, does that mean that my venture adventure is unadvantageous or only uneventful?

So does that make you..
(rimshot please)
good for nothing?


Isn't it amazing;

nothing can grab your attention
in any language!

Is a functional person
a BAD for NOTHING?

A contentedly gruntled chap.

And on the street mothers warn :
Don't Dis the gruntled...

Il n'y a rien que rien

Drawing on my fine command of the English language, I will say nothing further. 8)

If nothing came, then you already got it. No point in waiting further for nothing.

I must have been a really good husband because all of my ex-wives always told me that I was good for nothing!

`Nothing In This World` is a feeble attempt at pop music by a spoilt little sucker. It does nothing for me.
