Exactly. So why the "rappers" in the initial post?

It's not about words per minute. People can type that. Doesn't always make sense. As I said. Whose Line is it anyway proves that that rappers aren't the only quick thinkers, as the OP suggests.

Well that just shows you know nothing about what you're talking about. rappers are now suddenly rapping at more than the speed of non rappers? It's about thinking on your feet in the situation you're in. Most of the participants of Whose Line could do the same. Not in the same league as Williams, which was aired, but still.

Well he's a good argument against the initial post, they aren't all rappers.

All well and good. However, plenty of people can think on their feet and put across what they intend, rappers aren't really an exclusive group there. Just a different version.

Cool. Most people don't give a shit who goes into space because it's not like any of us will.

Reply to TIL Sting is credited with co-writing the Dire Strait's hit song 'Money For Nothing' without writing any of the lyrics. It's because of Sting's singing 'I want my MTV' used the melody from The Police's "Don't Stand So Close To Me" triggered a copyright credit. by shaka_sulu
The lawyers got envolved.
Great accidental hit though.

Yeah, had family that lived in relevant countries at the time. They downplayed it guess part of me did too. But now I understand why they did. And even now I'm trying to wrap my head around what they went through.

I've had a few drinks, because, frankly, the world sucks. sue me. Also I thought about it more in that time frame. I think both my statements were true. Because the Nazi's were making shit up as they went, but the blue eyed blond thing was their gig, Lindbergh though so too. There has been talk that the Lindbergh baby wasn't "quite" right. How sad is that. Kid doesn't meet your standards, so you get rid of it?

But why not in comparision? Would have been a more interesting "study" reads like they had an agenda, which is why I brought up improve comedians.
