If you expect the unexpected then doesn't that make the unexpected expected?
Expecting the unexpected means being prepared for unforeseen events, not that you anticipate the exact nature of those events. It's about adopting a mindset that is open to changing circumstances and ready to adapt, rather than predicting the specific outcomes.
What is the difference between a quiz and a test?
A quiz is typically shorter and covers a specific topic or section of material, while a test is more comprehensive and covers a wider range of material. Quizzes are often used for practice or to gauge understanding on a smaller scale, while tests are used to assess overall knowledge and mastery of a subject.
Ethos pertains to a speaker or writer's credibility and authority on the subject matter.

Why does the Porridge bird lay its eggs in the air?
It's an evolutionary adaptation that has developed over millions of years. For centuries the porridge birds had their eggs made into delicious porridge omelets by the neanderthals, but alas, laying their eggs in the air saves their succulent eggs from becoming our breakfast.
How do you know if you kill two birds with one stone?
Well, presumably you will know whether you threw one stone only, or more than one. And, if you succeed in killing two birds, you will likely find two dead birds, nearby. However, there is the possibility that you could mortally wound one (or both) of the birds and one, or both, could fly some distance from you, before cooperating, and dying. That would be hard to ascertain, as birds often hide very effectively before they die. So perhaps the best way would be to make sure that you are very accurate and powerful in your throw. From a pragmatic standpoint, it certainly helps if the two birds are standing in line, one behind the other. That way, you don't have to use geometry and calculus to figure out the ricochet angle of your stone's throw.
Why do you waste your time here?
Because it's fun answering peoples obvious questions because these idiot people dont know of another way to find out answers, that or they feel good about helping out others by answering there questions, im just here to find an answer for something that i cant so ive only ever been on this once, so im not wasting my time.

What is it called when fat people hate skinny people?
This attitude can be described as weight discrimination or sizeism, which involves prejudice and discrimination based on a person's weight or body size. It is important to promote body positivity and acceptance of all body types.
If we ever know everything there is to know what would we all do then?
Knowing everything there is to know is not the same as knowing what to do with that knowledge once you know it. The major lesson taught from the fall from paradise mythology in the Old Testament is that Adam and Eve were ill equipped to handle the knowledge of good and evil. While they were living in the Garden of Eden the arguably knew all there was needed to know. Particularly the warning God gave them to not eat from the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil. While Adam and Eve were happy frolicking in the garden, their thirst for knowledge was even greater so they chose to ignore God's warning and ate from from the tree. Because in the garden there was only good it was necessary for Adam and Eve to leave the garden and go out into the world so they could know good and evil. This has been the legacy those mythological people left for humanity. We are now in a world filled with good and evil and it is incumbent upon us to learn how to deal with that knowledge. To know what God knows does not mean that we know what to do with that knowledge or even that we can handle owning that knowledge. This is the game, to be more godlike we must come to terms with good and evil and learn how to deal with that knowledge. And another point of view: Undoubtedly there are more questions than answers. WA's own statistics bear this out. There are many instances of the same Q being asked in many, many different ways. All of which can be replied to differently I suppose, a comma here an exclamation mark there, the diversity is infinite and then some. All of this adds to the spice of sharing information & the diversity of opinion. By much the same token, and I think this is Socrates: The more we know the more we don't know. The wider our knowledge of a subject the more we realise that there is more & more to be discovered about what we learn. In that way I imagine knowledge is like the universe, ever expanding. And infinite.

Second answer
That depends on how you define the egg. If it is a chicken egg, then a chicken would obviously have to come first in order to lay it. If you mean eggs in general, then eggs were around long before chickens. The first creatures to lay eggs on land were lobe-finned fish, fish with usable lungs and a means of locomotion outside the water. A group that split off from these fish became amphibians. Evolution continued down the line as groups split off to become reptiles, such as dinosaurs. Predatory dinosaurs known as Theropods eventually gave way to birds. The modern chicken is believed to be descended from wild jungle fowl active in South, East, and Southeast Asia. In conclusion, fish, amphibians, and reptiles laid eggs millions of years before the appearance of chickens.
In cricket, a delivery from a left arm spinner which goes from off to leg, ie into a right handed batsman. It is rare to see this type of bowling for a number of reasons:
- It needs a very complex movement of the wrist for it to succeed.
- There are fewer left handed people than right handed people.
- It is pointless, as the delivery which spins into a batsman is much easier to hit than the one which turns way, which the left arm spinner bowls normally.
The term is thought to have originated in 1933 test match (5 day) between England and the West Indies at Old Trafford, Manchester. Englishman Walter Robbins was dismissed by a ball spinning the other way from West Indian spinner Ellis Achong, who had Chinese ancestry, hence being dismissed by a Chinaman. The most notable current Chinaman bowler is the West Indian Spinner Dave Mohammed.
(NB a Chinaman can also refer to a person from China)
What is the use of rhetorical questions?
A rhetorical question is one that is asked without expectation of an answer, often with the implication that the answer is known to the person or group addressed. It is actually a persuasive argument couched as an unanswered, or unanswerable, question. Example : "Are we going to put up with more foolishness from our elected officials?" (The person speaking implies that the answer should be "no".) Example : "Are you going to keep bothering me?" (The speaker does not want to be bothered.)
This is the great unanswered question of life. Philosophers and theologians have struggled with mankind's reason to exist, even if the simplest answers are still incomplete.
For a discussion, see the related question below.
The egg came first because genetic mutations that led to the modern chicken would have occurred in the egg before the bird hatched. This means that the egg, containing the genetic mutation for the modern chicken, existed before the first chicken hatched from it.
