Bikes have no windows and can move. There doesn't seem to be any correlation whatsoever. Fascinating

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 87 points 10 months ago (3 children)

By that logic it's the wheels that make both the car and the bike move.

Which isn't...entirely wrong, but I wouldn't say it's correct.

I know! Let's try putting wheels on a house

Which can move! Ho-ly shit. There might be something to this "wheel."

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Tell that to rats and gerbils.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago (2 children)

.... Those things move all the time

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

And are stationary at the same time. 😉

... without wheels. Wheel theory once and for all debunked by a proponent. How ironic

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Perhaps the wheels charge them tho

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 months ago

How is everyone so obsessed with wheels? Here in the South, we say wheels don't move people. Vehicles with wheels do.

Sometimes the windows need just a little bit of help.

[–] Huschke@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You're on to something. Boats have steering wheels and they can indeed move.

But what of the mysterious seaplane?

[–] dogsoahC@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

It still has cogwheels.

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I didn't say it's wheels and it doesn't even make sense once you think about it. Wheels are connected to the ground. Moving is all about getting to another ground. If anything, wheels hold you back.

With people who share my sense of humor

Bicycles is my favorite greek philosopher

[–] Hyphlosion@donphan.social 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What if bikes DO have windows, but every time you’ve seen a bike, the windows were just rolled down?

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

That would change everything

Edit: it's also unfalsifiable which doesn't make it wrong but you should bear it in mind
