No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
Okay! Can do!
Defnitions: Flat (adjective), My chest. Example My chest was flatter than an angle measured at 180°
Straight (adjective) anything that has perfect parallelism to my chest. (See notes)
Notes (Straight): Straight cannot be used as an adjective to describe my sexuality.
Additional information some users may find helpful: This is satire
FAQ: Is this commentary on anything political? A: No, this is typically considered bad humor.
Is this a joke? A: yes, this is a joke just as much as the author of the joke is -entirely.
Why did you write this? A: I thought of this stupid joke and have no impulse control on writing dumb comments (see previous question)
What is the meaning of life? A: 42
Do dinosaurs really exist? A: I had Dino nuggies last night and do not believe big chicken would lie to me about making up dinosaurs, so yes they are real
Has this joke gone too far? A: This joke is for me, I need to make myself laugh
As a serious note though, on a micro enough scale, everything will become bumpy/not a single linear thing. On a macro enough scale it would be impossible to determine variation and appear flat.
In a common human sense, many things are flat and linear to normal human perception. Many crystal and metal formations have flat, straight, and sharp features.
And something theorized to be existing and straight would be (iirc) the planck length. Light so energized that the wave becomes essentially linear (please verify because this is memory only)
