"It's pandas all the way down!"
Yesterday Gregory and I determined that the physicists have it all wrong. There are no photons, electrons, or quarks. It's all pandas. The entire universe is made up of pandas!
He was discussing math acronyms and mnemonics, and said that his favorite is PandA, Perimeter and Area.
We frequently go off on silly little linguistic tangential adventures together, bouncing off of each other's goofiness until we end up very far from where we started, free-associating and punning and twisting words until we have to stop because we are laughing too hard. Yesterday this resulted in the following:
A square has a panda, a circle has a panda, even a star has a panda.
Hey, wait, even a panda has a panda!
If a panda has a panda, then that panda must also have a panda, because every panda has a panda.
Every panda has a panda, and every panda's panda has a panda, and every panda's panda's panda has a panda!
This must go on forever, such that the entire universe is full of pandas.
The entire universe is pandas. Everything is made up of pandas.
The entire universe must, therefore, be in black and white. Color is an illusion generated by our consciousness.
And furry! The entire universe is black and white and furry.
Microscopically furry, of course.
Nano-pandas and micro-milli-pandas and sub-atomic pandas, all furry, make up the entire universe.
It's all pandas!
(Which, of course, reminds me of the famous story about the turtle supporting the Earth. To paraphrase, "It's all pandas all the way down!")
