Everything that is designed and built 'round' either turns or spins. What is something 'round' that does not turn or spin?

Cannot include anything round that is built in a fixed position that does not rotate.

      There are potentially hundreds of thousands of round objects that don’t move at all in the intended use. It depends on the purpose or the function of the object. There are four such objects in the above inset alone.

    Those are fixed in position items not designed to turn.  Doesn't count.  Like same thing as drawing an image of a circle on paper.

      That stipulation is not part of your original post. “Everything that is designed and built round” is quite specific and literal.

    Sorry, no easy escape for you, cannot include anything in a fixed position. Now I have to edit my question.

      An edit is exactly what I thought might happen, in fact, it almost has to if you want your question received at face value. Accordingly, based on any edit, I can also alter my response. 


      By the way, I’m not the one who needs the escape, because I answered your question exactly how it was originally worded, you changed the parameters later. I just caught you on a technicality, that’s all.  The one needing an escape is you, mon ami.

      Ok, this brings up the question as to whether or not you mean turn or spin or rotate on its own, turn or spin or rotate as part of the function of working with other parts of a machine, turn or spin or rotate for any reason or purpose that does not involve its primary use . . . ?

    Let's 'keep it simple'.

      It is simple. I’m simply trying to ascertain your meaning to remove ambiguity. You’re dismissing the angles I bring up, are you looking only for a narrow set of responses. 

      This is the way an analytical mind works.

    Would you like to discuss something more significant in analytical detail like supernatural creation or infinity of time maybe?

      Why and how are those automatically “more significant”?  The significance of a thing is both subjective and relative, wouldn’t you agree?

    Anything a little more interesting than wheather or not round things can or cannot spin perhaps.

      That’s possible, but not all things fall into the same realm or realms of importance to and for all people. If a list of priorities were to be started, almost anything that’s placed at position number one could theoretically be shot down when someone beings up a different topic that he or she (not “it”) considers to be more important.  Additionally, situations and circumstances cause shifts in what’s overall important to a particular person at various times.

    Ok anyway now I know that round things that can or cannot rotate is a significant subject matter for you. Fini?

      I’m open to all kinds of subjects. You won’t see me getting cornered into just one of them.

      What about the coins; do they count or not?

    Yes, you gotta count them roll 'em up. Rolling counts the same as spinning, rotating, turning, revolving or just going 'round' and 'round'.

      Here’s another one, piping.






    Does it count or not?

    It counts as something that can be rolled, turned, rotated etc. until it is fixed into position.

    Your question asks for things that are round that don't turn or spin but we can't count anything round that doesn't turn or spin. 

    That's a little light on logic.

    A part  of a design that is round does  not count as something that will turn, spin, rotate etc.
    Never mind logic, it is not required to ask this question or reply to it; just be argumentative.
