    It's a ladder. I consider stepladders to only have a few steps.

    And because this is an EoFF debate, I suppose I should add that everyone who disagrees with me is a terrible person who wants the terrorists to win and probably even agrees with NeoCracker's gaming opinions.

    It's a ladder. It only becomes a stepladder if its parents get remarried.

    It's too late for that.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    If I were to refer to such an item in person, I'd just call it a ladder. However, I do realise that it is actually a stepladder. The extra word is too much hassle to actually say.

    It's both. This is like asking if a cat is a mammal or an animal.

    Sephex beat you to it. I think it went right over most people's heads, though.

    To be a ladder is must have rungs, not steps. If there are steps, then it is a stepladder.

    Sometimes the answer is so obvious that you overlook it.

    Actually legitimately misread this as Laddie or Stepladder.

    Please update the poll accordingly.

    A ladder is something that is leaned against a wall, house, or other solid object. A stepladder is something, like this, that can support itself.

    Everyone in this thread has been wrong so far. Congratulations guys!

    Damn it! I was going to say trout like this but now it's unoriginal. Oh well. My friend hates his stepladder. He says they never spend any time together and he always is made to feel like trout. He wants his real ladder back. "_"
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
