But if you have seen the unseen then the unseen has been seen and thus is no longer unseen. But if you have seen what has been seen then even through forgetting the seen is not unseen, because before it was seen it was unseen and by being seen it had become seen: An irreversable process. So even by forgetting you cannot unsee the seen.
But by forgetting you can become as if you never saw, which, for all practical purposes, is no different than not having seen. As far as seeing the unseen, I have seen it, but most people have not, so therefore it remains in the “unseen by most” category.
That goes without saying. It is written on that sign. Pay no attention to that sign, either. And while you’re at it, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
Don’t you get all those invites from people like “Cathybabe” and “Voluptulicious” to add you to their “friends” list? Even on Beliefnet, I’m always getting offers from people sincerely appreciative of my spiritual viewpoints wanting to be friends and send me their pictures. I’m trying to figure out how to STOP being invited!
That’s just the way we are: unheeding fools that take no advice, no matter how good, from the fish that live in our toilets. Why, many’s the time..Arggh~~~the aliens~~~the probe~~~oh no. please. please please please~~~arrgggh…..
Merci, Dr Handle, for the translation into French – and not one misspelling. I’d forgotten “odalisques”. Sounds much nicer than “grosse”. But it also has that pesky connotation of concubinage.

It is the distance light travels in a year. There is no way to turn that into a measurement of time. I can measure distance in hours, however. The time it takes me to get from Point A to Point B is all that really matters. I just need to get the teleporter working…
And of course there’s an obsession from the men. They think about it all the time. But at this site, even us women show the same behavior. Which I thought was interesting.
There’s probably somebody with a change apron lurking in the shrubbery – if you are spotted looking at the water, they jump out and make you pay a sightseeing fee. The money is no doubt used to maintain the scenery, which thoughtless tourists wear out by vigorous looking.
No, it’s the actual forbidden planet. That’s why they don’t want you to look at the water, because then you might see the outline of the invivisble monster.
During WWII, military authorities asked Salvadore Dali, whom they considered an expert on visual arts, what type of camouflage to use to hide paratroopers. He suggested dressing them like harlequins.
no splashing in warter
Everyone knows you have to play hard to get when it comes to water.

That isn’t water
I’m seriously confused. I’ve got to stop accepting things at face value.
We set up this huge fountain display and we want you to pay no attention to it whatsoever.
And once the dancing water fountain show begins, we beg you to still pay no attention.
Perhaps it is a sign designed to alert us to global warming. The glaciers are all melting and we’re not paying attention…
I find myself wanting to argue with the title, since I personally have seen the unseen.
But have you unseen the seen?
All the time. That is one of the benefits of aging. You can see something and promptly forget having seen it with no effort whatsoever.
But if you have seen the unseen then the unseen has been seen and thus is no longer unseen. But if you have seen what has been seen then even through forgetting the seen is not unseen, because before it was seen it was unseen and by being seen it had become seen: An irreversable process. So even by forgetting you cannot unsee the seen.
But by forgetting you can become as if you never saw, which, for all practical purposes, is no different than not having seen. As far as seeing the unseen, I have seen it, but most people have not, so therefore it remains in the “unseen by most” category.
Is that like being a little bit virgin?
Good point… That’s how you have to think of it.
Unseen thing is a virgin…
And when it has been seen…Well… Let me put it this way: It has snorkeled!
It is better to have seen and forgotten, then to never have seen at all.
How do you know?
We are warming the water, please pay no attention. Once it starts to boil, we’ll let you in.
As long as you don’t fall in, you won’t get boiled.
But remember, the life is precious, but the deep water is unforgiving. I imagine deep, boiling water is even less forgiving…
Yes, that is just one more reason to avoid falling in. Besides, the squids don’t like it when you step on their mustaches.
Any squid that can maintain his moustache in boiling water is not going to be bothered by me.
Hey, the vice squid is tough!
Meowth,
If you don’t want to fall in to the boiling water, you can gently step in.
True, if you gently step in, the punishment is not as harsh. They just send you to the harsh browns instead.
poor Steve..
Pay no attention to the Steve and the Dave.
And pay no attention to the water.
That goes without saying. It is written on that sign. Pay no attention to that sign, either. And while you’re at it, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
Ignore these instructions.
Ignore the talking cat. He is part of your imagination.
I am part of my own imagination, thank you very much!
Perhaps no public bathrooms nearby?
Nearer than you think. The notice is saying ‘Don’t look over the wall: there’s a urinal for midgets over there’
what about the weird internal diagram in the background? I want to know the story behind that. .
The dark grey part seems to be depicting a tangle of human figures. Maybe it’s an orgy!
Hope for the best, expect the worst!
It looks to me like Dr. Handle was right. The aliens have landed! And they’re having an orgy!!
So I guess what we have to do next is protect ourselves. Where are those ushers with the condoms?
Ohoh, by all accounts those guys are totally into rectal probes.
Check the back to school aisle on failblog.
laconejita, you mean tinfoil hats!;)
Best protection from an orgy!
So that’s why I never get invited!
Don’t you get all those invites from people like “Cathybabe” and “Voluptulicious” to add you to their “friends” list? Even on Beliefnet, I’m always getting offers from people sincerely appreciative of my spiritual viewpoints wanting to be friends and send me their pictures. I’m trying to figure out how to STOP being invited!
Voluptulicious–hahaha. That’s a new one for me. Cathybabe and RawTeenVid and I have been friends for a long time.
No, but can I re-purpose voluptulicious as an adjective? For use in describing women like Nigella Lawson {www.nigella.com/product/gallery.aspx}.
Put on you tinfoil hat!
*Your
My R fell off…
I’m sure they told you that would happen if you played with yourself.
No, they just took it for the Team Rocket logo.
Well, I *tried* to warn everyone about the aliens, and urged everyone to Use Protection, but would they listen, noooooooooo…
i would !>:(their going to infect my brain!
That’s just the way we are: unheeding fools that take no advice, no matter how good, from the fish that live in our toilets. Why, many’s the time..Arggh~~~the aliens~~~the probe~~~oh no. please. please please please~~~arrgggh…..
We are not aliens. We are from France. Here, consume mass quantities.
Your instructions are to late. I took it upon myself to consume mass quantities many light years earlier. And have the doughy body to prove it.
“too late”, not “to late”. I may as well speak French. I’d type about as well.
Vous etes trop tard – nous avons manges beaucoup de stuff il y a plus que vingt ans. Et nous avons les corps tres odalisques to prove it.
Merci, Dr Handle, for the translation into French – and not one misspelling. I’d forgotten “odalisques”. Sounds much nicer than “grosse”. But it also has that pesky connotation of concubinage.
I just think that “odalisque” sounds a bit more exotically voloptuous than “porky”.

Light Years are a measurement of distance…
OTOH time passes whilst you travel the long dark light years, so a light year can be a measure of duration, just not a very good one.
My time is measured in dark years.
It is the distance light travels in a year. There is no way to turn that into a measurement of time. I can measure distance in hours, however. The time it takes me to get from Point A to Point B is all that really matters. I just need to get the teleporter working…
Thank you, Dr. Hawking, for that correction.
I’m not Dr. Hawking, but you’re welcome just the same.
Are you sure? I could have sworn I heard some hawking when you made that comment.
It must have been on your end. I didn’t hear anything.
The people at the top seem to be ignoring the water. They must be warming, up there.
Well if they are having an orgy, I assume that they’re feeling pretty hot.
No orgy yet, they are still just warming up to each other.
I was just thinking that no matter how PG rated an Engrish picture is, we always seem to turn it into something sexual.
Why do you think that is?
dunno.. but it sure is fun!
“Hard” wiring in the brain.
As we professionals say, (pardon the advanced technical language), the brain bone’s connected to the crotch bone.
Rule 34, sub b) No matter how innocuous the picture or initial comment is, the conversation will turn to that of a sexual matter.
Oh, Now I feel really stupid. I should have checked my Engrish Manual before posting the question.
Thanks,
You guys have been spinning something sexual on pictures I haven’t even rated yet.
Yes. Do try to keep up.
“Spinning something sexual”–that’s a reference to that hanging device about which I wrote that little poem, isn’t it?
I asked the same question about our apparent obsession with pee and poop sometime back in the spring. Believe me, this is better.
That’s the difference between The Puerile 10-Year-Old Within and The Puerile 15-Year-Old Within.
Or the difference between the horny adult and the horny perverted adult.
It is a biological imperative. Of course we are obsessed with it!
And of course there’s an obsession from the men. They think about it all the time. But at this site, even us women show the same behavior. Which I thought was interesting.
It is an innate need designed in both men and women. If it wasn’t, the species would never survive.
There’s probably somebody with a change apron lurking in the shrubbery – if you are spotted looking at the water, they jump out and make you pay a sightseeing fee. The money is no doubt used to maintain the scenery, which thoughtless tourists wear out by vigorous looking.
you mean like DEMOCRACY?it looks slippery..~~~~~
Is that string of tildes supposed to be a Wikipedia signature or an artful Grecian wave motif?
When wet.
Um,i’m gonna go with no.
or neither.
Damn. I just lost the game.
Doh! Now you made me lose the game!
Sad. That majestic looking sculpture thingy features so prominently in the photo, and yet all I could focus on was the sign and the water.
Is this the set from “Forbidden Planet”?
No, it’s the actual forbidden planet. That’s why they don’t want you to look at the water, because then you might see the outline of the invivisble monster.
If they didn’t want us to pay attention to the water, why did they make the statue/monument/whatever it is into a fountain?
It’s a double bluff. They WANT you to look at the water so you don’t notice when the top of the monument opens up and an ICBM comes out.
It’s the the old “hiding something by making it obvious” trick.
During WWII, military authorities asked Salvadore Dali, whom they considered an expert on visual arts, what type of camouflage to use to hide paratroopers. He suggested dressing them like harlequins.
And that’s not as stupid as it sounds. If you think it is, run picture searches for “Berlin Brigade” and “dazzle camouflage”.
Hey, I could circle this monument! Where’s the sign saying “throw your ice-cream into the fountain”?
Wow! What is this monument, it looks really cool!
