Most of the time, they (our friendly neighborhood QI elves) may be right. The nature of the program is not meant to be hostile and anything found or learned from it is more to enrich someone&#39;s knowledge or tickle the funny bone-- it&#39;s not supposed to turn encounters with others into curb stomp battles. </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/placebo-homeopathy-qi-4th-nov-2011#post-292691 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 19:04:20 +0000 WannaBeLinguist 292691@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>^^^<br /> Uh...

If they call to your abode you can, not open the door or if you do open the door politely tell them you have no interest in their product, I have found they will go on their way without any fuss. In fact I admire their dedication and the time they give to what is I suspect for the most part a thankless exercise. If you do indeed want to engage them in conversation for the purpose of challenging their beliefs there is a wide variety of printed and web material available to read on which you can base you arguments. </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/qi-cruel-nature-god#post-292487 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 16:37:15 +0000 Rad Jackson 292487@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>Yes, because the trend of door-to-door evangelism represents such a perilous conundrum to society that we simply *must* rise up and throw down the shackles of leaflets and affirmations printed on poor-quality paper by enthroning their trivia on the BBC, thus paying them far more credit than they are due...</p> <p>OOPS.</p> <p>Quite frankly, I find it to be the only truly trivial element of Qi, and while I hope Pope Francis is eventually swallowed up and spit out by the people of the same bloodline who allegedly hung up the original martyr to the cause, I shall instead hope that Sports Direct have a sale on Lonsdale tops, as both that and the fall of the old dogmas are about as likely. </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/who-should-be-guests-on-qi/page/10#post-292445 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 20:56:30 +0000 @ExleyBen 292445@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>James May would be such a good guest on this show!

While there is probably some genetic influence on earlobe attachment point, family studies show that it does not fit the simple one-locus, two-allele myth. You should not use earlobe attachment to demonstrate basic genetics&quot;. </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/help-please-1#post-291797 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 20:43:09 +0000 FXRS 291797@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>Thanks for your help. &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif&quot; title=&quot;:-)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/help-please-1#post-291555 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 02:18:32 +0000 Rose 291555@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>Hiya, can&#39;t help directly, but I found this site to have a bunch of very helpful and knowledgeable people regarding English. language.http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/100968/when-did-the-term-get-lost-first-come-to-use<br /> Good luck! </p> http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/help-please-1#post-291491 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 11:24:18 +0000 FXRS 291491@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <p>In a (not so?) recent episode of the most excellent QI our Mr Fry talked about a word which meant liking a part of something although not liking (detesting?) the whole entity; e.g. liking the martial music of Hitlers Germany but detesting the Nazi regime in its entirety.</p> <p>Anyone know what the word is I am am looking for?</p> <p>I have been searching the internet for some considerable time trying to get the answer but without success.</p> <p>Grateful if someone can help &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif&quot; title=&quot;:-)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p>
