M? Because she does math the best and does exactly what I tell her to do.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Why should it be a female?

Re: Interesting Conversation
Usually inanimate things are given a female gender. Sort of like a ship.

I do not find inanimate things are beautiful. I was not talking about this M either.

Re: Interesting Conversation
I was talking about M the package, you were talking about M the girl.
I do not find inanimate things are beautiful.
Seen any astronomical images? Seen mountains and the oceans? The blue sky? A sunrise? A sunset? Are they not beautiful?

Re: Interesting Conversation
Yes, maybe. But animate objects can be more beautiful
and M is beautiful but I do not find it comfortable to think of him as a female.

Beauty means a lot of things. I would say that it is something that touches your insides.

I'm sure M should have cut it in the ratio which is as close as possible to [Dickinson]\phi[/Dickinson]
What do you think?

Re: Interesting Conversation
Too show why I believe in many things you do not is because when you have lived as long as I you will experience them. For some reason, I just began to draw. It was pretty good too. I had no training or aptitude for it but it just happened. I filled up books with sketches and then it stopped as suddenly as it started.

When do these start? At 90? Do I have to live that long?

Re: Interesting Conversation
Nothing happens to you until you at least get into your mid twenties. Before that time a person is like in a cocoon.
For most people they never get out. Stuck in that box they are.

Re: Interesting Conversation
The backtrack quote?
Yes, your school is wise not to appoint me to do anything. I am a difficult employee. I have difficulty relating to younger people. Some are intimidated and call me sir, this is annoying. Others call me gramps, which makes me violent. Others try to mug me which also makes me violent.
And yet, you wonder why no school has hired you?

I guess that it would be impolite to ask how many people you know then?
