Most people glarp, & virtually everyone who glarps wants & tries to do it well. But most (or at least many) glarpers glarp badly. What is glarping?? |

Is it an activity? Something that most people do everyday? Does bad glarping affect the people negatively? Is it better to glarp badly than not to glarp at all? If someone could glarp well, would this make them celebrated? Is glarping competitive? For fun? Necessary? Is there a relevant group of people who do not glarp? |

is it a real word? made up? fictional? is the definition always the same? are glarpers aware of one another? can they compare glarping? is glarping associated with a specific culture? a number of cultures? can a quadriplegic person glarp? can one glarp in a small dark closet? |

if most people glarp, does this mean that most people are glarpers? Does anyone glarp professionally? Do most people glarp every few minutes? every hour? every day? every few days? every few weeks? months? years? |

When you say "most people glarp", do you actually mean the majority of the world's population? Do most Americans glarp? brits? S. Koreans? N. Koreans? Is there a certain age at which most people start glarping? 1 month? 6 months? 1 year? 2? 3? 4? 5? 6? 7? 8? 9? 10? 15? 20? 30? older? |

As for when most people start, this will vary from country to country, but most Americans & Brits probably start glarping in their 20's |

Would they be aware that they are g;arping badly? If they wanted to glarp better, are there glarping clsses they could attend? Books on glarping they could read? Does one have to learn to glarp, or do they just pick it up? Are there any laws related to glarping? The specific group of non-glarpers, are they linked by: Age? Gender? Religion? Where they live? |

Have people always glarped? Did the Victorians glarp? the Tudors? the Romans? Greeks? Prehistoric people? Do any other animals glarp? Does one require any equipment to glarp? Does glarping help prevent some sort of injury? illness? Do people normally glarp in the comfort of their own home? If I were to glarp with someone else, would it be likely to be my mother? father? brother? friend? water polo team mate? girlfriend? a stranger? If I was glarping with someone, would we be in the same room? |

Is glarping a continuous but potentially changeable state (like believing in God) or an actual event? Would people be likely to tell their friends when they had glarped for the first time? Is it permitted to glarp in North Korea? Are some people prohibited by law from glarping in the US? Can a blind person glarp? Can a cat glarp? If I glarp in the year 1995 and again in 2005, would I be classed as a glarper in 2000? Or an ex-glarper? Do the non-glarpers want to be glarpers? Do non-glarpers have a moral objection to glarping? Can an illiterate person glarp? Can a computer glarp? Might it be possible to program a robot to glarp? Is Kevin Costner a glarper? Is Britney Spears a glarper? Did Charles Dickens glarp? Did Beethoven glarp? |

If I were to glarp with someone else, would I know how good a glarper they were? Do more people glarp alone or with a companion? If I glarped with someone else, would this make it easier for me to glarp? more pleasurable? Is glarping pleasurable? painful? On average does it take 1 second to glarp? 10 seconds? 30? 1 minute? 5 minutes? 10 minutes? 1 hour? 2 hours? 12 hours? a day? several days? Is it necessary to be able to talk to be able to glarp? |

Well, they shouldn't. Glarping is not a medical matter. But doctors & esp. psychiatrists seem to think all sorts of things fall within their area of expertise. Probably most psychiatrists would distinguish between normal & abnormal glarping, but I hope glarpers will have the independence of judgment not to worry about the psychiatric seal of approvalis there any medication related to glarping? no |

As Kelly Cherru (an American writer) says, "Maturity os for people who don't have the good Goddamn sense to tremble with terror every blessed moment of their existence." As an atheist, I prefer to omit the end of that sentence"who don't appreciate the enormity of the debt of gratiutude we owe to God." But to get back to your question, physical "maturity" is probably more relevant would one pick a special place to glarp? not usually or might you wind up glarping while commuting home from work?yes could anyone describe themselves "in need of a glarp session?" possibly glarped out? possibly are there glarping aids at the pharmacy? no clothing store? noany store? no |

I am assuming that glarping is not connected to the actual act of being pregnant or giving birth since gender is irrelevant? Is it only parents who could glarp? Does glarping happen after the child is born? Relevant how long after? |

Having sex? Giving birth? Becoming pregnant? Something that happens during pregnancy? Getting married? Something you do with your child? Can both males and females do it? |

I think so Does glarping happen after the child is born? possibly Relevant how long after? it would have to be VERY soon after, probably within a couple of days Alex319 (Alex319) New member Username: Alex319 Post Number: 426 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Monday, October 08, 2007 - 8:33 pm: Edit PostDelete PostView Post/Check IPPrint Post Move Post (Moderator/Admin Only)Ban Poster IP (Moderator/Admin only) Having sex?

Would it make sense to say, "I glarped my baby"? (possibly with a few minor grammatical adjustments) If a couple had adopted a newborn baby, could th adoptive parents glarp it? Could the birth parents glarp, even though they no longer had the baby? Can glarping be done any time from conception of the baby until it is a couple of days old? If I saw a pregnant woman in the street could I glarp involving her baby? Wouls she think that was strange? Does a baby or foetus need to be present for glarping? Would a child whose parents had never glarped be in any way different from a child whose parents had? |

If I saw a child, would I immediately be able to tell if its parents had glarped? If not, would I be able to tell if I spent time and go to know the child? Is there a definite way of telling a child whose parents glarped from one whose didn't, or is it more guesswork? Would a child whose parents has glarped badly be different if their parents had glarped well? Would glarping while the child was in the womb require a visit to hospital? Is it possible to glarp an adult? To glarp oneself? |

But my informal & completely unscientific survey (asking friends & acquaintances) indictates that most people dislike their given names. This is hardly surprising, since parents have nothing to go on, because they have to name a child who doesn't yet have a personality. That's why more people should try my solution--change your name legally!! Thanks for solving it, Lynne--nice to see you again--& of course, I'm about to post a new puzzle you know where. |
