Question to discuss:
If something is true, is it always true? Can it be possible for a statement to have once been true, but is now false? Or would that be an instance of an improperly defined and generalized statement?

Stranger 2: You sound so dull

Stranger 1: you're boring

Stranger 1: like one of those people that try to sound smart and say they don't own a tv

Stranger 1: but in reality no one cares

Stranger 2: Yes

Stranger 2: Well it depends

Stranger 1: A statement that was once true can become false.

Stranger 1: And vise versa.

Stranger 2: Ppl considerd dumb in one society can be considerd genius in another.

Stranger 2: Mysteries..

Stranger 1: "All doors in the world are blue."

Lesson learned: Omegle is not a good place to probe for (even barely) intellectual discussions.

Obviously things generalized could switch between true and false. But even non-general things can change. Obama is president of the US. While that is true now, in a few years it would be false. Saying Obama is the 44th president of the US would always be true.

But yes, I don;t know why anyone would think omegle would be a good place to survey people.

again, that would be a problem of not properly defining the assumptions for the statement. "Today is 29 January 2014; Obama is currently the President of the United States."

Yes, no, and yes.
