But still refuse to answer "How many strings does a bass play with in water?" correctly, perhaps the chat monitors in the third world data entry centers will manually patch the nonsense for a more rational answer someday. lol =3

This was the first time I'd heard that gotcha question. I just threw it at Opus 5:

    None — a bass in water is a fish, and fish are notoriously bad at music.
    
    The instrument version plays four strings as standard (five and six-string basses exist for players who want to go lower or higher), and it prefers to stay dry.
Seems like a pretty good answer to me!
