Um... Nobody knows everything because knowing everything would mean you'd know exactly what every single thing in the world is doing and thinking.

 

Um..it's kinda ment to be a funny/stupid post. Nothing really about anything.

 

I think its cute ... seeing Shadow_Goddess take the matter of the entire world into her own hands ... awww

But alas, to know every single thing would be too much for one to take unless they are from the future and have radically developed to take it in ... also, we'd have to consider the universe and atoms at the same time when thinking ... too much food for thought that!

 

Man has yet to figure out the meaning of "everything" anyway. One step at a time.

 

The topic is: Think you know everything?

Well, I don't THINK I know everything...I KNOW I know everything! Watch, I'l' prove it, ask me anything out of the list above and I will be able to answer any one of them!

 

11: There certainly are words rhyming with purple at least

12: It isn't even the only six letter word ending in those two letters

17: There are a lot more than four

OK, none of the above are exactly common, but they do exist. English does have rather a lot of words.

 

I got about half of them right I must be good for a thirteen year old!

 

You care to offer examples L?

And it's bloody obvious nobody plays Monkey Island here. How could you forget that classic rhyme for Orange?

DOOR HINGE!

 

People rhymes with purple, right?

Unless, if you mean rhyme with -urple.

 

Its not so much as a rhyme as a half-rhyme ... which actually is a real term ... guess what it means? It means that two words do not rhyme completely but they can be used as a rhyme of some sought ...

 

11) Curple, hirple

12) Crommt

17) Iodous, nodous, apodous, rhodous, cupidous, dipodous, frondous, mucidous, nitidous, paludous, rybadous, vanadous, blizzardous, biohazardous, branchiopodous, parallelepipedous

OK, crommt is listed as being obsolete, but the others up there aren't. The first two are Scottish. The last lot though are all perfectly valid, at least a couple of which I've had cause to use.

 

Um... It said "Only English Words" I believe, for 11...

 

11? month and bunch ... nah thats a half rhyme me thinks ...

 

How funny. I, with Kitrax, *now* know everything -- but how amusing that there should be others here who *still don't.*

"What is the first business of one who would learn [everything]? To part with self-conceit. For one cannot begin to learn what he thinks he already knows."

Haha. I found this quite funny!
Most of the question were American based knowledge. I'm a french canadian, so I didn't get a lot right. There's a few pointers, though :

6) I didn't understand the question. You would gain to rephrase it.

9) It's a canadian flag, on top of the parlement, on the 2$ canadian bill. I have one with me, and I have no idea where you saw an american flag.

15) Your question is not specific enough. i answered Blenheim Palace (I checked in the dictionnary, and they said this also).
