It has got to be roadkill.
 
The sound of a fully tuned petrol engine under load and accelerating away...

V8, top fuel, two-stroke twin, big single... anything with a real snort!

Nothing better :-)

Landscapes (especially those containing a body of water).

The answer is it depends...

At this time of my life, I have not met her yet...

The Beatles song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".

Nice answer, wasteofo2.

George Harrison complained that his songs were often passed over for album consideration by Lennon and McCartney.


In my high-school days, it was a tight spiral pass with no wobble, with perfect wind compensation, laid right into my outstretched hands such that I did not have to break stride.

I can see why, Harrison was just too good, they couldn't let him get all the fame.

Nearly all of them. Similar to weighing feminine beauty there is much to appreciate.

I find beauty in many things. I like many of the answers already given, (I've never seen Tsunami's right, large toe, so I cannot comment on that. :smile: )

I like the song "While my Guitar Gently Weeps" I also like their song "Something", also by Harrison.

At the risk of sounding shallow (or a perv), what I consider the most beautiful thing is the nude female form (I don't mean in a sexual way). There are so many beautiful fluid lines, subtile textures and delicate color in the human body (doesn't matter if they are fat or thin or somewhere in between.)

I have a theory that we like things (subconsciously) that relfect on the 'female form' :D

The most beautiful thing? Women, what else is there
 
  • #24
People smiling. One of my friends has a great smile and I am glad that I can make her smile often.

That would be the second most beautiful thing. The first would be able to understand them.

found this on slashdot. I looked at it and I found it to be the most beautiful art I've seen in a long long time (well, I'm only 17 so long long time might not be too long to people older than dirt)
