Wouldn't it also spoil the sport, you spoilsport?
Five more posts and you'll lose your posh position of Minister of Truth. Time to go shopping for your spacesuit for Monolith Dancing on the Moon. I heard they have great pink and black ones on Europa. That's a moon of Jupiter, by the way, not a continent just across the Atlantic... Human is as human does....Animals don't weep, Nine

HOW can we describe a Morris Dance in a question?

Could we say, "Morris dancing is a kind of English folk dance that is usually accompanied by music. There is rhythmic stepping and choreographed numbers by a group of dancers. Dancers may also hold items such as sticks, swords, and handkerchiefs."?

But could one say instead that it is an imaginary Native American folk dance invented by the French-Belgian cartoonist Maurice de Bevere, a.k.a.
"Morris" whose main hero, Lucky Luke,
Wikipedia wrote: is a solitary cowboy who travels across the Wild West
and who met Native Americans in many of his adventures?

Thank you for finally telling me what it was, and do you really want to confuse me by giving me more than one answer?

Isn't a point in this game to confuse the other players?

With over 5,600 posts in this topic, aren't some roads going to get trampled upon more than once?

Can we at least expect that the roads most often trampled are the funniest ones (for instance, confusing Wendy
)?

Why is it me that always gets picked on and confused, a road that's trampled by many means there are many others to pick on doesn't it?

Will you be satisfied if I answer that some people take being confused very badly, while you always take it very gracefully?

Whether or not you take something badly or gracefully it's still theft in the end right?

Does approval of theft make it not theft?

Is it theft when you take leave of someone who is happy to see you go?

Is it theft when you take something to Goodwill, or your church bazaar?

Is it against the rules to ask the same question more than once?
