Is Ann delivering a pizza? Walter? no | ||

If, in an alternate universe, pizzas were always made without tomatos, would this puzzle still work? | ||

Are Ann and Walter characters in a commercial advertisement? | ||

Does Ann have anything to do with the pizza(s)? does Walter? Are all of the other people who are geting the pizza in one place? Is each person getting a pizza for themself? Is how many pizzas are involved relevant? Is where the pizzas are coming from relevant? Does Walter run a pizzaria? Does Ann? | ||

Does Ann have anything to do with the pizza(s)? does Walter? no to both Are all of the other people who are geting the pizza in one place? no Is each person getting a pizza for themself? no Is how many pizzas are involved relevant? sort of, I guess...trying to figure this out might help set you on the right track Is where the pizzas are coming from relevant? no Does Walter run a pizzaria? Does Ann? nope, they have nothing to do with the pizza | ||

So, how many pizzas? (Please insert the LTPF list of positive integers) Are the masses watching Ann? Walter? Both? Relevant? Relevent how many people are included in the masses? (If yes, please insert once again the LTPF list of positive integers) If Ann and Walter knew each other, would the puzzle still work? Are Ann and Walter part of the masses? If, in yet another alternate universe, Ann hated tomatoes and Walter was fond of them, would the puzzle work? "Walter won't go near them." Is this just because he hates the taste? Because he is allergic? Because his childhood was plauged with nightmares of being eaten by giant, mutant, evil, flesh-eating tomatoes? General location relevant? Country? Continent? Relevant when? In terms of year? Season? Day? Time? Is there some competition going on here? Forgot to ask this earlier... Ann and Walter are alive, correct? Fortunately, in that it causes.... Monetary gain? The avoidance of pain/some other miserable thing? The occurence of something good? Inner peace? Entertainment for the next half hour or so? Anything physical relevant about the masses? About Ann? Walter? Anything non-physical relevant about the masses? Ann? Walter? | ||

So, how many pizzas? (Please insert the LTPF list of positive integers) infinite, really. try thinking metaphorically about the pizza Are the masses watching Ann? Walter? Both? no, they really aren't connected to Ann and Walter Relevant? Relevent how many people are included in the masses? no, again, this is pretty much infinity (If yes, please insert once again the LTPF list of positive integers) If Ann and Walter knew each other, would the puzzle still work? it would be less likely to work. there are circumstances where it could work, but they are rarer Are Ann and Walter part of the masses? which masses are we talking about? the ones getting pizza? no If, in yet another alternate universe, Ann hated tomatoes and Walter was fond of them, would the puzzle work? not if everything else about Ann and Walter remained the same "Walter won't go near them." Is this just because he hates the taste? no Because he is allergic? no, but OTRT Because his childhood was plauged with nightmares of being eaten by giant, mutant, evil, flesh-eating tomatoes? he he, no General location relevant? yes (I was wondering when we were going to get to the typical LTPF questions that usually get asked right away - thanks!) Country? yes Continent? yes Relevant when? yes, very In terms of year? this Season? Day? Time? none of rest Is there some competition going on here? no Forgot to ask this earlier... Ann and Walter are alive, correct? during the puzzle, yes, today, no Fortunately, in that it causes.... Monetary gain? The avoidance of pain/some other miserable thing? The occurence of something good? this Inner peace? Entertainment for the next half hour or so? Anything physical relevant about the masses? About Ann? Walter? Anything non-physical relevant about the masses? Ann? Walter? about Ann and Walter, yes | ||

Ok, Trying to sort this out... We have Ann, who likes tomatos: this is relevant. Ann lives in some country on some continent. is the Country - (LPTF generator of all countries) Is her particular occupation relevant? If so, does it have something to do with: • delivery • entertainment • media • education • sales • manufacture • research • none of the above? Next we have Walter. He doesn't like tomatos, this is relevent. Does Walter live in the same county as Anne? If not: is the Country he lives in - (LPTF generator of all countries) Is Walter's work relevant? If so does he work in the same line of business as Ann? If so, same branch, different branch, or rival company? If not, Does he work in: • delivery • entertainment • media • education • sales • manufacture • research • none of the above? Finally we have the "masses" This group consists of an effective infinite amount of people. They are all recieving pizza. Is all the pizza identical? Is it all from the same place? Is the topping on the pizza relevant? Apart from the pizza, Is there any other feature that relates all these people together? • Geographic • Work • Entertainment • religion • education • Social Status • Financial stuation • Social Network • none of the above? Are all these people in the same place? Is the "occurence of something good" for these people, the fact that they are all recieving pizza, or is the pizza serving another need also. (food for the homeless, etc) Have they all ordered pizza, or is it a gift? Is this set during the Depression? | ||

We have Ann, who likes tomatos: this is relevant. Ann lives in some country on some continent. is the Country - England, although I think it might work with a few other European countries (LPTF generator of all countries) Is her particular occupation relevant? not specifically If so, does it have something to do with: • delivery • entertainment • media • education • sales • manufacture • research • none of the above? Next we have Walter. He doesn't like tomatos, this is relevent. Does Walter live in the same county as Anne? yes If not: is the Country he lives in - (LPTF generator of all countries) Is Walter's work relevant? not specifically If so does he work in the same line of business as Ann? If so, same branch, different branch, or rival company? If not, Does he work in: • delivery • entertainment • media • education • sales • manufacture • research • none of the above? Finally we have the "masses" This group consists of an effective infinite amount of people. They are all recieving pizza. Is all the pizza identical? no Is it all from the same place? no Is the topping on the pizza relevant? just the tomatoes Apart from the pizza, Is there any other feature that relates all these people together? no • Geographic • Work • Entertainment • religion • education • Social Status • Financial stuation • Social Network • none of the above? Are all these people in the same place? no Is the "occurence of something good" for these people, the fact that they are all recieving pizza, or is the pizza serving another need also. another need - ish, although certainly they are thrilled about the pizza (food for the homeless, etc) Have they all ordered pizza, or is it a gift? a combination, i imagine Is this set during the Depression? no, but good guess... explore Add a Message | ||

Does this occur before 1900? before 1910? before 1920? before 1930? ... before 1990? before 2000? Is the pizza which is on its way a physical object? Or an idealised (Platonic) pizza? Is the phrase being used in the sense that in the 1980s we might have said "Mobile phones are on their way"? | ||

So did Ann invent pizza? Did Walter? Or bring it to England? Did this occur in... (please insert the LTPF list of years) | ||

So did Ann invent pizza? Did Walter? Or bring it to England? no Did this occur in... (please insert the LTPF list of years) prior to the 19th century, Ann and Walter may have lived in about the 16th or 17th century | ||

Hmm.... Did either of them invent something? Tomatoe paste? Do something else which would make them famous? If Ann had not existed, would we still have pizza today? If Walter had not existed, would we still have pizza todat? If neither had exisited? Did either take some major step in the development of pizza?ÊOf something else? | ||

So the pizza is filling some need... (Or is it a want?) Let's take a look at Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs... Is it satisfying: Psysiological Needs? (Food, Water, etc.) Safety and Security Needs? Belongingness and Love Needs? Esteem Needs? (Achievement, etc.) Cognitive Needs? (Knowledge, Understanding, etc.) Aesthetic Needs? (Order, Beauty, etc.) Self-Actualization Needs? (Realization of Potential, Inner Peace, etc.) Or, if its a want, The want to have some tasty food to fatten up on? The want to have some comercial on TV? (Although I don't know who wants this...) The want for a healthy, food-driven economy? The want for an alternative to hamburgers? If pizza, for some reason, were spelled "Phyeatsse," (but still pronounced the same) would the puzzle work? What if it were pronounced and spelled "fish?" Would a similar puzzle work with, say, green pepper in the place of tomatoes? What if pizza were replaced with some other food? (Like Chicken Parmesean?) | ||

(Food, Water, etc.) well, sort of i guess Safety and Security Needs? Belongingness and Love Needs? Esteem Needs? (Achievement, etc.) Cognitive Needs? (Knowledge, Understanding, etc.) Aesthetic Needs? (Order, Beauty, etc.) Self-Actualization Needs? (Realization of Potential, Inner Peace, etc.) no to rest Or, if its a want, The want to have some tasty food to fatten up on? this is part of it The want to have some comercial on TV? (Although I don't know who wants this...) The want for a healthy, food-driven economy? The want for an alternative to hamburgers? If pizza, for some reason, were spelled "Phyeatsse," (but still pronounced the same) would the puzzle work? sure What if it were pronounced and spelled "fish?" is it still pizza, or is it fish? Would a similar puzzle work with, say, green pepper in the place of tomatoes? no What if pizza were replaced with some other food? (Like Chicken Parmesean?) pizza works best, a few others might work a little bit | ||

Would Walter still enjoy a pizza, despite not liking actual tomatoes? |
