FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why did you make a site?
I wanted a place I could bitch about things publically. I had alternate motives, but that one is the one that got the site up and running, domain and all.
Why "Dark Seam"?
Why not? Well, truthfully, I wanted to use my gaming alias Darxim, but I thought people would misspell it and mispronounce it and misthink it. Its pronunciation is very similar to "Dark Seam", so I decided that would be the site's name.
What's your real name?
Bob... no, I'm just kidding. Nobody asks me what my real name is.
You seem to be very opinionated. What would you say your primary subject focus is?
Me.
What is the meaning of life?
An organismic state characterized by capacity for metabolism, growth, reaction to stimuli, and reproduction (webster.com). If you were looking for something else, maybe you should look up the word "meaning" while you're there. It's not 42. 42 is the answer to the great question of life, the universe, and everything. Don't get them confused.
It's also a very strange Monty Python flick.
Why are we here?
You had to be somewhere. Being here, specifically, is just a coincidence.
Why was I born?
Your biological parents had sex or your mother was artificially insemenated. The resulting zygote grew into something your mother couldn't hold anymore, so it had to come out. Thus, you were born.
Does God exist?
Of course I exist. How would I answer these questions otherwise?
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Reptiles were using eggs long before birds existed.
If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
By definition, no. Sound is defined as the sensation perceived by the sense of hearing (webster.com). This being the case, someone would have to hear it in order for it to be classified as sound.
If you stood on the north pole, would you get dizzy?
If turning 360 degrees in 24 hours makes you dizzy, then yes.
Why is the sky blue?
Blue light is scattered by the atmosphere more than other visible wavelengths of light due to its short wavelength. Scattered light is easier to see because it goes in many directions, as opposed to one single direction, in which case you would have to be directly in its path to see it. In truth, though, the sky is (ultra-)violet, blue is just much easier for human eyes to see.
The easiest way to perceive it is with waves of water. Think about it like this. All the waves have the same height, but blue waves have steeper slopes than red waves. These waves hit a post. The longer waves just ease on by, but the shorter waves break on it. It's the same with light waves hitting oxygen and nitrogen atoms, which make up most of our atmosphere.
Why is the sky red in the evening then?
Sunlight has to pass through more atmosphere to get to you at this point. The blue light is already scattered somewhere down the line and less of it makes it to you. However, the red light, being less scattered initially, dominates the sky. You can see it better because now it has more atmosphere with which to scatter, what with the angle of projection and all, and the blue is far less present.
How can I lose weight without diet or excersize?
Drink a lot of water, especially during meals. Sodas do not count, as they are carbonated (drinking boiling liquids is bad anyway). Also, avoid high fructose corn syrup as if it were the black plague.
Why does God hate me?
Because you cut me off on the highway the other day, you bastard! You didn't even bother to signal! Feel my wrath!
How do you know so much?
I don't. I figured out most of these questions today. Many of the answers are on the internet somewhere.
