That being said,

Google is most peoples' friend. So many questions here -- even the esoteric-seeming ones -- have answers that often come up as the first or second hit in a google search, which one might have found on their own quite easily.

If you haven't searched Google on the question you're about to ask, do that first. Then we don't have to tell you to search Google. The questions here become of a more interesting caliber, and you don't come off as lazy. Everyone wins.

One other possibility:

Has anyone got a copy of this fanfilm called IFOTOS?


Adam edit: Abusing my power here to remove the answer. This is too good a tradition to dismiss with a FAQ. Don't worry you didn't do anything wrong. happy

That's rich coming from someone proclaiming the word of Meatball in their sig...

Besides, Meatball should be capitalized.

I got censored! I got censored! dancing

Your exception to my .sig is duly noted, DarthArjuna. I have made the appropriate amendment as desired.

We thought of that. It simply does not hold the mystery and intrigue, as a question at least, that Meatball does.

Edit: Ever wonder if that's actually the Question? To Life, the Universe, and Everything? I mean, we know the Answer, but not the Question...

    According to the book, "Life the Universe and Everything", the planet Earth was actually created as the computer to generate that very question.

    And the question is answered at the end of the book.

    Outrider, I get the feeling you didn't catch the reference.

    Durb... was it? I don't remember. All I know is that the Earth was demolished five minutes before the completion of the program. Or do you mean the scrabble-esque experiment that Dent tries to carry out with the natives that's something like, "What is nine times six," or something like that?

    And it isn't much of a stretch to believe that this is an alternate universe where the question has been found, and that that question is, "What *IS* Meatball?"

    Hrm. Let's continue this in PMs, or in the social thread. Hijacking is bad, m'kay? (Even though I started it.)

    Copyright has been popping up a lot lately. Maybe a small write-up on what's legal, what isn't, and what shades of gray are permissable at what times?

    Actually, the answer is very simple, people just don't see it:

    If you have to ask, it's illegal.

    You'd be surprised how often that works. Meaning that, if the question arises in your head about whether it's okay to do something, chances are a lawyer somewhere has already answered your question in the negative. That's what they get paid for. That quick rule of thumb will serve you 95%+ of the time.

    I think all this *Meatball* stuff is pure, utter nonsense that means nothing and is referenced to by too many who don't know what it means (like me). Make it go away.
