YMBAAI you had to verify that Jameson's post had exactly 24 identical copies of " if you understand recursion" in it.
(I posted a similar thing, a while back, with one letter changed in the middle of it all.)

Post # 331
on an earlier post I wrote the following:
"Anagrams" of 313 are:
133 = 19*7
331 is a prime.
331 is not a member of the "Quadratic Primes Series", but it does have some interesting properties:

Ah! But richie, you haven't listed "Penrose tiling"! (At the bottom of which, there's a picture of a Penrose tiled real floor!)

I was too concerned with periodic patterns I forgot about "Quasi-Periodic" tilings
and Quasi-crystals.

You mean it's not? :?:


Been there, done that, still wearing the same T-shirt. :oops: :oops: :wink:


simply amazing! and i thought i was the only one with that thought pattern.
i've had this same hoodie on 3 daze...perhaps it's time to change, you think?
after showering, i always put on clean stuff then wear it for a couple of days...just don't see the point in changing everyday (except for undies and stuff like that)

I wear the same shirt and pants for over a week, then I change for the next week and so on

You might be an aspie if the word bean means anything to you

I did that about a week ago on the science,math & computers forum.
The thread was "Tesseract 47". It was my 53rd post and 53 has a mathematically
significant relationship to 47.

YMBAAI:

... you know exactly which size, and style of jeans are comfortable, and the girl at the store doesn't understand what's funny about "Do you want to try those on?".

... you have since decided to just buy your jeans online from now on, because that exchange was too difficult.

... your Google homepage has nothing but "How to of the day", and links to Instructables, and Make magazine.

... within ten minutes of talking to your Phsycologist for the first time he asks you if you've ever heard of Asperger's.

... your decision of what to wear that day is a mental graph of your clothing's comfort vs. strength of aroma.

... you spend $10 on a pair of socks because you can't stand the seam at the toe of cheap socks.

... you dropped and broke your hair clippers so you haven't had a haircut for six months because you can't be bothered to replace them or go to the barber.

... you don't even own a hair brush.

You contemplate getting a treadmill, and replicating Roger Bannister's endurance experiment. I was able to do almost an hour on a ski machine, helped along by music.
