Gullible

[Beardo]

Try saying Gullible really slowly. It sounds like orange.

[Afg]

Hmm, is this a trick? How does it sound like orange, even if it is said slowly?

Let a few more people respond, and then I'll teach you guys how this works. >_> Let's see if someone can crack the code.

Alright, it will be interesting :)

[Insaanah]

:sl:

I know that everyone will say that I'm a spoilsport and so forth....but a serious question has crept into my head.

In terms of joking in Islam, how far is it allowed to make a fool of someone? I mean there are lots of people here who genuinely and seriously don't get it, and who will still be trying. Did Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) ever do that in a joke?

By the way, I am not criticising, this is a genuine question. I have heard that he never lied, even in a joke, but I don't have the reference to prove this. What about making a fool of someone?

:sl:

I fell for it too. :_

Glad no one saw me say the word gullible slowly, or else they'd think I'm really weird. :|

[Ğħαrєєвαħ]

^ lol sis samere :)

[Woodrow]

This idiotic frustrating thread must be violating some forum rule, so I can delete it.

We need to make a forum rule that anyone posting gullible jokes be banned for 6 years, 4 months, 3 weeks 4 days, 7 hours 22 minutes and 15 seconds.

Well, I was glad to read the first sentence, understanding that you did fall for the trap.

But the second sentence stopped me dead in my tracks. I believe this thread was created during the time of eHafiz. I really cannot be blamed for the horrible things he's done on this forum now, can I? :X

[Ğħαrєєвαħ]

Are you Brothers angry at each other? Sorry
This is only a thread about gullible joking hope you make up Indeed :) and smile that will help! and sorry if ive said anything wrong also for busting in Forgive me

:sl:

We are very far from angry at each other. Bro Rashad is a very dear Grandson to me. I apologize if you thought I was angry at him.

[Ğħαrєєвαħ]

oh sorry, i thought that because you said you will bann him here :"We need to make a forum rule that anyone posting gullible jokes be banned for 6 years, 4 months, 3 weeks 4 days, 7 hours 22 minutes and 15 seconds."..MashaAllaah he really is your grandson? wow beautiful :)...sorry i misunderstood you..Indeed :)

He is my Grandson in Islam, not by blood but I love him as much as I love my blood Grandchildren.

[~Raindrop~]

For those who didn't fall for it... I'll think up something. Don't worry. :D

*cough* *cough*

[Ramadhan]

I second brother Woodrow's decision to ban whomever post gullible jokes. for ever. That's right folks.

Enough with gullible jokes!
let's bring out some wicked smart jokes!

I think it is because Bro. Rashad made an error. I was told gullible sounds like lemon if you say it very fast.

[~Raindrop~]

oh really?

'A mu'min is not stung from the same hole twice'. (not that I fell for it the first time ;D)

Nice try, Grandpa :)

lol after my brother saw your reply i saw him whispering it to himself really fast. Expected, but... :-\

[Muezzin]

Hmm, is this a trick? How does it sound like orange, even if it is said slowly?

I'll tell you tomorrow.

@ mr br woodrow, i knew what you were doing, but i had to try it :exhausted

Strangely people will try it even knowing it is pure nonsense. Just like people will read this post to it's end anticipating that I will explain why. No matter how much I say that this post is meaningless and has no explanation. People will continue reading it. At this point you already know that this post is not going to offer any useful contribution but you will continue to read it. This post is absolutely useless, I am not going to say anything in it. But, here you are still reading it and the fact is you would read this post to it's end no matter how long I make it. You have now wasted over a minute of time reading this and you know further reading will still be a waste of time. But, here you are still reading.

This can also be seen in real life as well, which is what you were alluding to. People know they are wasting time but will continue to waste time. People will sit hours upon hours watching television or YouTube and in the end will have derived no benefit whatsoever. Yet, they persist in wasting more time into it. It's really pitiful.

Ha!
I never read your post all the way to the end!! :D

[glo]

Ha!

Actually, I did read Woodrow's post all the way to the end - I simply cheated by posting the last sentence only. :D

I guess the reason is quite simple.
It depends on the person who is speaking (writing). Sometimes is becomes evident quite quickly that a post may not be worth reading to the end ...

But when the poster is generally known to be genuine and informative and knowledgeable and helpful, then it is worth reading every snippet, in the hope of finding a new nugget of wisdom! :)


(Just on this occasion though Woodrow let us down in our quest for wisdom! ;D)
