Groovy number lets number then
It’s not the little Red Book.
It’s the big Red Book.
One and one is groovy time
I see the number too.
And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. (Revelation 13:17-18)
Kant said:
2+2 = 4 is not a paradox.
but 2+2 = 5 is not a paradox either.
@Algernon 0404. You mean one ON one I assume.
The Lord spake, saying:
“Be groovy and multiply!”
All of your time are belong to numbers.
@Marum:
But 2 + 2 = 5 might be
Stupid chicken maths!
@Marum 4:07 Mark of the Breast?
For us Yanks of a certain age:
3 is a magic number
Too much television makes your brain number.
This is your brain.
This is your brain on numbers.
Operator: Number please?
Caller: 123-4567
Operator: I’ll connect you…One ringy ding-y…two ringy ding-y…
(A brief tribute to Lily Tomlin)
Groovy. I can dig-it.
For some stupid chicken reason, that little smiling TV with legs makes me think of Natasha Bedingfield.
This is your brain.
This is your brain on math.
Counting numbers is so mind-numbing.
Screwy IQ test. Numbers:
1: 3″; 6″; 12″ = A play by Shakespeare.
2: 00 ; 000 = Book by George Bernard Shaw.
3: 2X + 2X = 4X = an impossibility.
Answers later.
@Marum:
Uhhh…mate?
2X + 2X actually DOES equal 4X….
Q1 3 plays by shakespeare
@Big Fat Cat | 4:17 am: That’s a bit of a stretch! 😛
@Pete 0437. I’m a Queenslander, remember.
2X + 2X = 4X is an impossibility > For NOTHING equals XXXX. (Our beer)
Number please = I would like some novocain.
@Marum | 4:45 am: That’s a coincidence. NOTHING is what Fosters and Budweiser taste of.
I told you it was a “screwy” IQ test. I may as well answer the other two.
3″; 6″; 12″ = 3plays by Shakespeare (see the edit)
3″ = Much Ado About Nothing.
6″ = As You Like It.
12″ = The Taming of The Shrew.
00 ; 000 = Book by GBS = Man and Superman.
@Marum:
Aha…sorry mate.
Temporarily blanked out about the XXXX oil cans y’all consume down there. My bad.
😉
Make the most of your time.
Stop looking at the clock.
@DnT:
I’m convinced they ship Fosters to us ‘coz they refuse to drink it.
They prob’ly keep the GOOD stuff fer themselves!
But that’s just a guess.
😉
@DnT 0451 In the days when I thought I could drink anything, I bought a carton of Fosters Light. I drank half a stubbie, and gave the rest away.
Groovy Crew adds up to 420.
The internet make (or take) the most of your time with the number 34.
@Pete 0458. You mean they ship Fosters to the US of A?
You should contact Amnesty International or someone. That is total cruelty, amounting to torture.
Numbers are reliable. You can always count on them.
@Huu Yuu 0503. 34 is half of 69 minus 1. Threfor you must be doing it to yourself. 🙄
The Yanks think they are getting their revenge. Didn’t you know they ship Bud over here?
@DnT:
Some of us DO call it “butt-wiper” ya know.
😉
A squaw sitting on a Deer skin has 2 children.
A second squaw sitting on a Buffalo skin has three children.
A third squaw is sitting on a Hippopotamus skin.
How many children does she have?
A. 13.
Because the squaw on the Hippopotamus, is equal to the sum of the squaws of the other two hides.
Squaws in Africa???
j/k
@Huu Yuu | 5:03 am:
A few years back it occurred to me that, if cats and porn are the most common things on the internet, then according to rule 34….
Don’t get excited. It turns out there is cat porn, but I didn’t find it all that interesting.
@ Pete | 5:41 am:
Oh, yeah, an African squaw maybe, but not a European
squaw, that’s my point.
(Apologies to Python.)
I often go numbers. I go number 1 or number 2.
A 120 pound squaw can NOT carry a two ton hippo!
😉
@Pete 0541 Pythagoran Theory. Asq + Bsq = Csq
For Hippopotamus read Hypotenuse – Tis a tearable pun.
@Marum | 4:52 am; So, you’re saying that book by GBS is a load of balls? 😛
Q. If the answer is 9W what is the question?
A. Excuse me Herr Wagner. Does your name start with a “V”?
The Groovy Crew started multiplying with themselves and turned square.
@DnT 0547. One would assume, that, that is, because you are not a cat.
