If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound? OF COURSE IT DOES and this is an age old “deep question” that people still ask to this day, but it’s only truly debated on a metaphysical level when people are blitzed out of their minds. What does this mean in terms of the question that was asked of me… It means that I can easily stop being a smartass. I do it all the time. I am often a very nice guy who doesn’t make any waves.
The question you should have asked is “Can you stop thinking like a smartass?” to which I would have to answer no. Now granted, I don’t have to act on what I think. I do not have to respond sarcastically or with some with some witty comeback for everything I ever hear, but ultimately my mind is programmed to be a smartass.
Good thing it is, because without me in the world there would be one less quality website to visit. You would have to find entertainment in trolling forums and YouTube all day. There would be nobody to give you the answer to your question that you so rightfully deserve, because on a whole; people are politically correct.
Remember school? The place you go to learn to communicate, and all they do is tell you to shut up?
