1. Mind your fingers!

2. Cellulose rules. Look it up and be reminded. From Papyrus to its myriad uses, it is up there with all the fundamental miracles that built our tenuous civilization. Talk about what bonds us. You may need to write it down on paper.

   1. Don’t be silly … the revered indigenous peoples of North America didn’t need to invent paper … they have “storytelling”

      1. And they somehow managed to hunt, fish, and pick berries under 5000 ft of ice.

         1. “And they somehow managed to hunt, fish, and pick berries under 5000 ft of ice.”

            Yes, stripping their environment clean of all useful resources, then moving on to another location to do it all again. They called this “being responsible guardians of nature” or something…

            1. Canada’s guilty whites ain’t got NUTTin on MY woke Nor CAL city … all hail the saclan MiWoks … who lived in harmony with the land and water …

            2. while managing forests by lighting them on fire and putting them out with a buffalo bladder of water.

         They apparently didn’t need the wheel, either. Or mathematics.

         1. Butt they had beasts of burden, called wimins.

            1. No… I won’t do it. I won’t say it. Too vulgar, even for gym.

            2. FC, good. You get verbal diarrhea every time GYM makes a comment. It’s super boring.

            3. @Loopus:
               To set the record straight, I get “verbal diarrhea” when gym makes a STUPID comment, which is about 99.25 % of every single comment he posts.

               If gym wants respect, he’ll only get it when he starts respecting me and others, but it seems that gym’s only purpose in life is to attack anyone he doesn’t agree with with his verbal sewage.

               And finally, I’m sorry if you’re bored with my “verbal diarrhea,” but my purpose is obviously not to entertain the masses. It should be obvious that my purpose is to not let gym’s attacks go unchallenged. I’ve never been bullied in or out of the public, and I’m going to make sure gym learns that painful lesson.

         2. … or recurved bows or astrolabes or gender reveal parties or soap. They were so virtuous while needing so little. Inspiring.

3. Chuck Norris begins folding paper after 10 fold…he’s still holding paper…

4. Folding paper 42 times will result in a wad thick enough to reach to the moon. If that’s what you want to do.

   1. Assuming 0.003″ thick paper, 2^42 folds would be about 208,000-ish miles. So, that would get you close, but one more fold would put you way past the moon.
