The "Did you know" thread..... - Page 464

Greenman,
On behalf of everyone, and I mean everyone, thank you for posting, but I want to lift a discussion to a higher level.

I wanna see some butts.
Like in WURZ's avatar, just... much bigger. I mean... BIG. Like a mother of a big photo.

What do you think buttmen to breastmen ratio on VEF is? I know you have been thinking about it, haven't you? Now you are. Even if you weren't.

Taxonomically, I have much properly based reasons (empirically tested evidence) to consider them two subgroups of the genus "pussymen" (cause we all love it).

Let's pay respect to our favourite wise madman, Diogenes of Sinope, called The Dog (that's what "the Cynic" means in Greek: Διογένης ὁ Κυνικός, Diogenēs ho Kunikos), hence the brutal symbolysm openness by Jean-Léon Gérôme:

Jean-Léon Gérôme, "Diogenes" (1860)

When scolded for masturbating in public (thus charged of corrupting the youth of Athens - all the Greek philosophers that meant something were accused of doing that; it's is an unmistakable mark for someone aiming at writing an article "Who is who in Greek philosophy" for this thread, or for any other purpose ), he replied:

"I wish it were as easy to banish hunger by rubbing my belly."

He was exiled from Synope for frolicking with coins (he defaced coins; his father was a banker, and he himself was also enrolled into the banking business aiding his father. However, it didn't take him long to become embroiled in a scandal involving the adulteration or debasement of the currency).

He arrived to Athens with a slave named Manes who abandoned him shortly thereafter. Diogenes dismissed his ill fortune by saying:

"If Manes can live without Diogenes, why not Diogenes without Manes?"

There`s no reason for Numero to feel ashamed

That's just because I often either forget or don't like to use smilies. But, I should've put one "

" after "butts".

Don't bother. Not much sense in my sentences anyway.

Former BBC and now Channel Four's para-athletic and paralympic commentator Rob Walker's early claim to fame was being able to shape his torso into the image of an elephant! He did this in a section of Chris Evans' Channel Four early-evening show in the 90's.

I am pretty sure elucidate means to make something clearer. I tend to use a lot of long words sometimes when a shorter one would suffice, erm be enough.

I will try not to be so verbiose in future, please accept my contrafibularities

Right having re-read your last post Numerous One I realise what you are referring to - arses to tits! I have no real interest in ratios and we get all sorts on here that like legs, arses, lower regions, tits etc...each to their own, but when it gets to weird stuff like feet(and just cannot see why a foot is erotic) and other fetishes I leave well alone

Thanks, masta!

Speling is my favourite subject.

And as long I stay focused on my goal, which is excelence in every aspect, it surely shows.

The word swims reads the same when viewed upside down.

NOON is another one but only when using capital letters.

Does anyone know the English word that describes words that have this behaviour? I found ambigram but that is where the word is rendered in such a way to retain a visual representation from a different direction/perspective.
