Absolutely bat shit questions I want the answer to.

[Hawdyerwheesht]

I found myself thinking about historical reactions to sleep talking today e.g., what did regular folks from 100s of years ago think of such things given that ominous signs were (presumably) met with much suspicion?

Was it conveniently ignored?

Did they associate sleep talking/sleep walking with signs of the devil?

I did try to Google it but didn't really find anything useful.

What are your bat shit crazy questions that no one asked (or wanted to know the answer to)?

Sleepwalking, known as somnambulism, in ancient times was considered a "curse," "plague," "demonic possession," "a mark of evil," or "punishment for some unconfessed sin." Attributed to witchcraft in the 1600s, as evidenced in Shakespeare's "Macbeth," somnambulism, is another disorder without physical markers. Witches, women who made a pact with the devil in exchange for supernatural powers, used somnambulism against their victims. Some believe it to be old wives tales or superstitions, in the Middle Ages, most townsfolk feared that sleepwalking could be a contagious evil and the sleepwalkers, and their families, were shunned by the community.

My dog actively "talks" and "Runs" in his sleep.
I always wonder if he remembers his dreams and realises it was his imagination, or does he wake up wondering how he got back on myhis bed 😁🐕

I've just watched a Cbeebies bedtime story about the 3 primary colours coming together to be friends. My question is, how did we decide on red, blue & yellow as the primary colours? And why do they mix together to make all other colours?

I'm not sure what your question is?

Red, blue and yellow are the primary colours BECAUSE they mix together to make all the others. And because (back in the days of natural dyes, at least) it was very hard to make those three colours from scratch - eg you couldn't make red without using something red.

I suppose the question is why those colours? What is it about their (chemical?) properties which gives them the ability to create so many other colours

It's about the properties of light.
