Damn Oracle is useless.

I've asked it heaps of questions, and all it says is that it's invalid query syntax.

For instance, I said:

"Oh humble oracle, who knows most everything can you tell me why it is that my car gets really dull when I don't polish it?" and it says bad query.

And then I asked it about what sort of database i should use, and It gave some sarcastic comment about bad database.

So then I ask the system manager what database I should be using, and he says oracle. So I ask the oracle again, but nothing happens.
