Retarded in most cases, as the means of answering those kinds of questions usually come about by the very fact that they're consistently asked.

How can you distinguish between answerable and unanswerable questions?

>> No.9233740

That's another of those stupid unanswerable ones!

you can answer the answerable ones and you can't answer the unanswerable ones, duh

Depends on what you mean by unanswerable.
There are plenty of reasonable people who believe it is impossible to know for certain whether a deity exists or not, doesn't stop people from asking the question. Others consider the same question answerable.
Some 'unanswerable' questions have become answerable through time with science, as a lot of theoretical physic hypothesis have been proven.

This question is not answerable.

A question can always be answered. Whether the answer is a good answer asks if there might be an even better answer.

All questions can be answered, and all answers can be questioned.

Now that's some serious bullshit you got right there.

And who the fuck tips in a literary conversation. You know that half the shit /lit/ is centered around is fedora-tier, right?

>> No.9233923

The problem is that you can't know if a question cannot be answered without first asking it.

>> No.9233924

what the hell does *exeunt* mean?

Answers that cannot be given are not worthy answers.

Refers to actors leaving a stage during a play. Used to read Shakespeare a lot not knowing what it meant.
