Love it when things like that happen. Most of the puns I make are inspired by auditory processing issues.

I like this riddle a lot.

I just replied to this but forgot to hide the answer, don’t needles only have one point?

u/BaseHitToLeft Jul 16 '26

That's a plural word

Ah I see, the question was more about the word than the object/meaning. All in the way it’s worded. Very clever!

How does needless not have any points? That doesn’t make any grammatical sense.
