I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's been so long since I've studied this... but if you look at ∞ as a limit, then ∞/∞ could be a non-infinite number, depending on what the limit is. For example, the lim x²/x as x→∞ is ∞, but the lim x/x as x→∞ =1.

This is true. Usually, ∞/∞ is said to be undefined.

Come to think of it, I've only studied ∞ as a limit... Anyway, does this make sense? I mean, it matters what kind of ∞ you're talking about....

It absolutely depends. I've been assuming we are taking ∞=Aleph-null, but that's probably just me...it's a number in the sense that it's the number of elements in the set of the integers, for example.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Well, if you're me, you look at the infinite signs and go, "boobies!", which takes away the math-pain considerably.

Just trying to live up to the thread title.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Because, of course, boobies/boobies = porn.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

boobies/boobies = porn.

A bosom divided against itself cannot stand.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

At least not without some serious support.

What is even happening?

A bosom divided against itself cannot stand.

Surely I am not the only one here old enough to recall the "It lifts and separates," commercials?

Hey, I was quoting Abraham Lincoln. Bra technology wasn't as advanced back then.

Compassionately intolerant

Nope.

Not the only well-aged bra commercial viewer. I remember well the two fingered X demonstration.

Never quite understood why seperated was somehow better than the squished together look of Empire dresses of old.

What? Boobs can't get along?
