The Truncated thread
 
This is were you send the flowers to this rock chick par excellence.
Here honey.Take them,they're for you:

She's a doll that's all I can say.

RdTv 06.02.2006 06:44 AM

Truncated. The name says it all (not really),anyways I think she's cool, I like her posts and she always seems to keep it interesting around here. She's one of those that I look for (stalk??) whenever I log on. It must be that devilish grin, or perhaps those sharp stalks of fire protruding from here head.

Thank god i'm not the only freak who does that.

Hardly my friend, I bet there are a lot more but maybe too cool to admit it.

i don't understand why the artist would give arms and legs to the ruler but not to the rock! it's inconsistent, and illogical!

Many thanks, folks. You guys are just SUPER.

It seems fairly obvious.

The ruler, being as thin as it is and, we can reasonably assume, anatomically oriented such that the ulterior portion of its anatomy correlates with the topmost lengthwise portion, would never be able to remain upright without some method of support. The rock, however, is fully capable of 'standing' on its own, and needs no legs for locomotion, as it can simply roll itself to its desired destination.

The rock does not possess arms because it developed a masturbatory compulsion as a pebble and caused all sorts of embarrassing ruckuses at social gatherings. A cruel but necessary preventative measure.

Sheesh.

I'm sorry - was the advisory that "Those who collect secondhand wombs for decorative/demonstrative purposes are psychologically flawed, and therefore need not share their assuredly erroneous opinions" accidentally left out of this thread?

Preposterous, even a simpleton knows an upright position for a ruler is for it to "lie flat", and that ruler's "height" is no more than the few millimetres between its larger "top" and "under" sides. So not only is the diagram illogical, it is also anatomically incorrect!

Please observe these anatomically correct, scientific diagrams of an anthropmorphised ruler:

fig.1

 


fig.2

 


the height of a ruler is determined by the measurent of the side placed on the y axis in fig.2.

Pfffffft. Maybe BRITISH rulers.

The horizontal orientation of the body of the ruler is far too impractical. An anthropomorphized ruler's function is not, like the inanimate ruler, to measure, but to mingle with other less fortunate species, pleasing aesthetically with its precise symmetry and prudent right angles and socially with its jocular charm and playful persona. These duties require convenient mobility, which would quite obviously be hindered by such extensive width as that of the above-referenced diagram. Doorways, corridors, narrow Italian alleyways, and basic household furniture would be impossible to utilize for the horizontal ruler. Therefore, to accomodate these expanded functions, the evolved ruler stands upright in the lengthwise vertical position as portrayed by the initial drawing.

bearing in mind that most rulers are no more than 30cms (12 inches) long, i think you'll find that your arguement holds no water!

How presumptuous of you to assume that the society of animated objects has created its community within the physical confines of our human one!

Do YOU see any rulers and rocks ambling casually along at your feet?

I didn't think so.

Do you know why this is? No? I'll tell you then.

In order to accomodate the needs of a significantly smaller species, in addition to avoiding the injuries that are an inherent risk in coexisting with a population of much larger and therefore unintentionally careless beings, our tiny friends have built themselves a dimensionally proportional living space directly beneath our topsoil. The construction is tailored to their relative sizes, and they are able to function efficiently and freely without the cumbersome burden of an intolerant and occasionally destructive group of coexisting creatures. Though many troublesome and inexplicable geological phenomena can be attributed to this underground network, it is generally minimally invasive to the upper world, and is often an asset within the farming community as it hydrates and aerates the land.

I understand that this is an oft-neglected subject of study in the regular curriculum. I am happy to help educate you in such matters.

does this point not defeat your own arguement, a ruler would not need to stand upsideways if it lived in a dimensionally proportional living space, constructed and tailored to it's size, where it can function freely, i.e. without having to stand on its side?

*Sigh*

Like in the human world, universal standards must be adopted for optimal coexistence of diversity within and without species. The ruler, when lying horizontally, is significantly wider than its peers. To accomodate such a disproportionate size in the standard of construction would be ludicrous. One could apply the principles of evolution to this very situation: the absurdly wide ruler, being in the minority in that respect, naturally evolves to adapt to its environmental circumstances. This is much more scientifically logical and efficient than the other, more similar species adapting to the ruler's needs, or the establishment of structural standards based on the circumstances of an isolated anomaly. If the latter were the case, said species would quickly become resented by the others, and, if not extinguished by the technicalities of physical limitations, would be socially ostracized to the extent that they would become obsolete.

It's just easier on everyone if the ruler stands up vertically.

CRACKED ACTOR
- Album: Aladdin Sane
- Lyrics and music by David Bowie
http://cgi.algonet.se/htbin/wrapcoun...ounter=counter

I've come on a few years from my Hollywood Highs
The best of the last, the cleanest star they ever had
I'm stiff on my legend, the films that I made
Forget that I'm fifty cause you just got paid
Crack, baby, crack, show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack, is that all that you feel
Suck, baby, suck, give me your head
Before you start professing that you're knocking me dead
Oh stay
Please stay
Please stay

You caught yourself a trick down on Sunset and Vine
But since he pinned you baby you're a porcupine
You sold me illusions for a sack full of cheques
You've made a bad connection 'cause I just want your sex
Crack, baby, crack, show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack, is that all that you feel
Suck, baby, suck, give me your head
Before you start professing that you're knocking me dead
Oh yeah
Oooh stay
For a day
Oh yeah
Don't you dare
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hoo
Hoo
Yeah

Why, yes Jareth, yes you may.

Truncated is the best poster on this board hands down. The red bar just means she's better than you and isn't afraid to show it. Bow down!

I've gone over this one before, but hey! Let's do it again, just for shits and giggles.

I post about SY when I feel there's a debatable issue; generally, when I feel it's warranted.

Do I feel the need to repetitively state my undying love for all that is Sonic Youth, day in, day out? To mindlessly list my favorite song off each LP; do it the following week again in a poll; do it the week after in respects to each individual band member?

Not particularly, no.

So Kim, what do you like to eat for breakfast?
Thurston? Any thoughts on global warming?

-Dude! Sonic Nurse, like, TOTALLY rocks!
-Well yeah dude, but like, Washing Machine was cooler.
-Dude, ALL of SY's albums RULE!
-Dude, yr right! SY OWNS!
-Sonic life man!
-RAWWWWWWWK!

Repeat 75 times. Assign varying thread titles to break up monotony. Repeat again.

I like SY. The other members of this forum like SY. There are only so many dimensions of discussion on that topic.

I like interacting with fellow fans of SY because I enjoy their perspectives on OTHER music and issues. On the whole, I find them to be of above average intelligence and open-mindedness.

In regards to the appreciation of SY's music, thanks kids, but I don't need any help on that one.

And so, if my failure to beat a dead conversational horse, or to mindlessly jerk off other SY fans simply on the basis of a common appreciation, makes me a redundant poster, then I personally advocate my own uselessness.

Next please.

Glice 06.02.2006 02:12 PM

I concur entirely with truncy-wunky on the above. The thickness of a persons plectrum is not entirely interesting to me, even less so speculation on the same.
