So did I, but I've been reliably told that I've long since lost themConfused
When people get lost in thought it's often because it's unfamiliar territory.

Did the long black dress and heels suit it?

No - this is where the sensible people shelter from those curious Velveteers. They live at the other end of the garden in the Velvet Room... we live this end in the Velvet...

...wait for it...

Meanwhile, back on thread, and apropos of nothing...

I'm borrowing my neighbour's petrol mower on Saturday.

If God had meant us to have showers, our armpits would have faced upwards.

No one actually calls me Philip (as from Victor "Philip" Parau).

The only rule of this thread is that you cannot directly respond to any prior posts.Geek
 
That is, this "thread" is NOT a thread.

Personally, I prefer cabbage to broccolli, but am not a bg fan of John Cale.

I own an Cadillac from ancient Egypt.  A museum offered me $1000000 for it.  I turned them down and sent it to the dump.  It ran like crap.

Peter Rideout broke his own rules on the first page, and no one has commented on it.  In other news, dogs have fur and a politician told a lie.

DWaaron = DWuniv - DWothers - DWgod

Aaron is me.  Univ is the universe.  Others is people who are not me.  God is God.

DW
 
is the change in weirdness of:
 
Thus, this equation reads:
 
My change in weirdness is equal to the change in weirdness of the universe minus the change in weirdness of other people minus the change in weirdness of God.  To sum up, my change in weirdness is the change in weirdness of the universe minus the change in weirdness of everything in the universe that are not me.
 
God's change in weirdness is zero.  This is because the concept of God has been so thoroughly explored that nothing new can be learned about God.  Thus, God's weirdness cannot change.  The equation can now be simplified:
 
DWaaron = DWuniv - DWothers
 
Now, the weirdness of the universe is increasing, as more and more is discovered about it each day that is weird and that no one understands.  Because weirdness is relative (if you compare the weirdness of the universe to the weirdness of any individual person, that person seems less weird), as the universe increases in weirdness, the weirdness of each individual person goes down in comparison.
 
Thus, the equation is
 
DWaaron = (+) - (-)
 
This means that my weirdness is increasing at a rate faster than that of the universe.  At some point then, I will overtake the universe in weirdness.  When this happens, I hypothesize that I will become the universe.
