How old do you have to be to qualify for death of old age?

[Specstile]

Has ash forgotten about pidgeot all these years later?

[Milsap]

What does OK actually mean?

[Pam-the-Lamb]

 If I put a cigarette in my mouth, is it a metaphor?

[Kerou 犠牲]

If I put a cigarette in my mouth, is it a metaphor?

I'm pretty sure it's still a cigarette

[Kpyna]

If a tree falls in a forest and no one's around to hear it, does anyone care if it makes a sound?

ah but does it even make a sound for people to care about in the first place?

Sound:
1. vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear.

so pretty much, if there are no bodies and thus no ears, it's not really sound. it's just vibrations that are uninterpreted.

[Milsap]

It makes a sound. Just because there's no one to hear it doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

[Kpyna]

No, it makes vibrations. Sound is an interpretation of vibrations by ears. It's like saying a pencil is a drawing. So if nobody ever hears the vibrations, there is no sound. Once someone hears it, then there's sound.

[Kerou 犠牲]

sound is what you lot are init

[SirBlaziken]

Sound:
1. vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear.

That gives it away right there. They can be heard if they reach a person/animal's ears. However, even if it doesn't, it still happened as the vibrations were still present.

If Nintendo trademarked the name Technical Machine, would it be called a TM™?

trick question: no-one here ventures into the shower on a regular basis anyway

[Lord Raven]

No, it makes vibrations. Sound is an interpretation of vibrations by ears. It's like saying a pencil is a drawing. So if nobody ever hears the vibrations, there is no sound. Once someone hears it, then there's sound.

then why do we call it the "speed of sound" and not "the speed of vibration"

a sound is a vibration, but a vibration is not always a sound
