No, you don't get it. r0's ultimate level of foolishness is "creating a thread like this". He is making fun of you.

Asking 'Do you have children?'
And when 'yes' is the reply...
Asking 'Are you married?'

I'd think there are some single parents though.

I just heard another definition for being foolish which goes:

Doing the same thing the same way many times and expecting to get different results each time.

My mother is single.

I looked at my watch, i got 12:30 a.m
Doing the same i got 12:31 a.m
Doing the same i got 12:35 a.m
Doing the same i got 1:31 p.m
Doing the same i got 1:39 p.m
and so on...

And therefore you were wasting your time. Since you were expecting different results each time, there was no need to be looking at the watch because each time you knew what the time would be.

I thought that was the definition of Insanity.

Whats even more foolish is that two gas engineers actually did that, and you can guess what happened there...

I'll post the article if I can find it (read it back at Christmas sometime).
