With recent events, I find myself questioning everything.
The question for today is in the poll. |

It took a lot of study, but I achieved fruitcake status many years ago

| If you put nuts into a fruitcake, does it become a nutjob? |

In this context, a fruitcake is someone who is crazy

I do know this. and I also know that the one who choose No.3 is crazy already, but I cant completely understand what will mean by choosing the other two options.

If my most valuable ceramic cpu accidentally drops and is broken into 69 pieces, I would be crazy at least for several days

The way I read it is:
1) Will I go crazy if I breathe in too much dust from anti-static foam (even if for a short time...)
2) Will I go crazy if I drop my most valuable chip (or other possession...) and it breaks into so many pieces I can no longer consider it worth anything.
3) Am I already crazy?
