answer with a question [game]

Post by SquishyBoi »

ok this is a weird one
you know how it is technically to "answer" any question with another question?
the point of this game is to answer the question above your post with another question that the post below will answer with another question.

here are some ground rules

1. no double posting
2. you don't have to answer the question seriously
3. don't sue me

ok i'll start

"what is sesame oil?"

Does common sense immediately imply knowledge of certain edge cases?

How does this qualify as an edgecase?

Isn't a relative someone related to you, like a father, uncle, or cousin?
