Extreme Ironing
-
I remember hearing about this[^] somewhere, but I'm not sure if it's a repost. I am truly amazed by human rationality and stupidity at times. I mean seriously, ironing? :wtf:
"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him, the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable an ignorable war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." - Albert Einstein Web - Blog - RSS - Math - LinkedIn - BM

It appears that everybody is under the impression that I approve of the documentation. You probably also blame Ken Burns for supporting slavery.

Bah, I gave that up long before I gave up combing or shaving. I have to look the part of a serious mathematician. BTW, Dockers pants are quite nice when dried and spread to remove creases.
