She was requested to wear it by her coworkers so they could take off their safety glasses when using the microscope.

BT, you just described a sheep. :-p
Down, boy; he's just rambling again.

:rolleyes: Still not buying this right?
Her light's off right now, but when she gets around to reading it, she won't buy it.

Yeah, I know, but he did describe a sheep.

Aww, her lights are never off, she just glows. :!) (see doc's note).




Better? Nah, even sounds hokey to me.

I'm doomed.

I don't know about that. You seem to be pretty good at the bobbing and weaving, not to mention running and hiding. Maybe she'll get tired before she catches you.

I don't know if I want to admit to being good at bobbing.

I can run and hide though

Yeah... leave that alone; it's not an apple.

:smile: Yep, I'm having legal review it now to see if they can find any loopholes.

Oh, they just got back to me; they suggested the following revisions:
"Such misinterpretation of said comments shall thus not be grounds upon which to relocate his sleeping area outside the bedroom, such as, but not limited to,[/color] the couch, futon, chaise, garage floor or dog bed."

Of course, did you ever actually dream you might get such luxurious accomodations as a dog bed should you wind up in such hot water? You'd be lucky if you got the dog house as shelter from the elements; the dog is certainly not going to give up his bed! :-p

Your own or someone else's? :bugeye:
 
  • #5,612
no, I mean an actual turtle, the four-legged reptile with a shell. It was an abstract turtle.

Make up your mind. Actual or abstract.

That's a pretty happy looking turtle there! :biggrin:

It was an actual, abstract turtle. I made it in Paint one day. It had a multicolored shell rim and red paws, head, tail, and backbone, and it was otherwise black on a mainly black background.

Sounds like a PF member

So, you're saying there are actual abstract turtles, and non-actual abstract turtles?

No, of course there are. If you draw a picture of a real, literal turtle, and the picture is abstract, then you have drawn a real, abstract turtle.
 
  • #5,626
this is my idea of an abstract turtle:

You should draw that: an actual abstract teethshoe.

I'll be pretty damned happy, too, if I can still balance an apple on my turtle when I'm 150. :biggrin:

If you're trying to confuse the kid, I'd like to point out that Mother Nature seems to have beaten you to it by a couple of years.

Are you sure that's supposed to be a turtle?
 
  • #5,630
Yes, I am sure

It's a nice piece of art but I wouldn't call it an actual turtle. What kind of turtle has a concave shell?

Looks like the top should have nuts in it.

Both the anorexic kind and the introverted kind. They're hard to tell apart.

That's why it's called abstract.

would u like to take a sit on that turtle, Moonie?

Well yeah... they pretty much come as a set.

I have a theory that if sixty people bring knives to a place that nobody knows exists, everyone will feel a slap.
 
  • #5,639
Personally, I feel that abstract representational art should capture the essence of the subject in some way. A sculpture with a concave back is an interesting 3 dimensional doodle, but it doesn't show the spirit of the turtle.

Shouldn't you be in that turtle dish?

It's a not-actual abstract turtle

That would be an actual non-abstract turtle, or maybe a non-actual, non-abstract turtle. :-p

No, yomamma was right, it would be a non-actual abstract turtle.

It's not turtley enough for you?

Or maybe a non-actual abstract non-turtle.

Faraday did extensive experiments based on this very theory.

I call it a wodden non-actual abstract un-turtle with non-convexlike shell and abstract legs for short: WNAAUTWNCSAAL (acronym)
