No, I'd rather go to a dentist, than a "toothiologist" who thinks sugary drinks are good for teeth and a door and a piece of string are state of the art dental equipment.

Poor woman.. But then again, she look old enough to be a seasoned pro and you never pull threads from a prop dress, they sometimes are held up by a piece of string, there's really no time to do complex fittings so the wardrobe dep makes these quick-fixes very often. The director sounded like an ahole, shouting really does not help here...

I swallowed two pieces of string.

They came out tied together.

Really, I shit you knot.

If you wish to measure a piece of string, you must first invent the UNIVERSE!

Your video, Horizon: How Long is a Piece of String? (Full), has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

My thought process:

"How long is a piece of string?"

This sounds like a great documentary!

"The more you measure it, the longer it gets."

Giggity?

Thanks for the promote!

This is great... Saw it on TV two days ago while eating breakfast. *promote

Here in Aus we have cans and pieces of string, powered by diesel. This whole internet thing is just a fad.


Diesel works ok, but I prefer to run my internet box on koala juice, it's more organic.

The tin can/piece of string thing made me smile.

They probably have brain damage now from not being able to breathe for the first 5 minutes of their life. The mother is probably going to die now swimming around with a fish hook and piece of string in her mouth.


I say good, we don't want anymore of our Crocodile Hunters getting killed horribly. I say fill their habitats with oil!

Pffft. I've got a better way. All you need is a piece of string, some wire hangers, a battery, a 16h century painting, some tinder and matches.

Yup, definitely torture.

That is not torture. To prove it, I'm willing to go on national television in front of a live studio audience, and have my string taken away from me repeatedly. I think it'll prove my point that this is merely an "enhanced interrogation technique", and that the term "torture" to describe this method is a misnomer.

*seconds later, Simple_man was tortured in front of a live audience as they point and laugh at his futile attempts to keep his pitiful piece of string*

"You look pale, Simple_man. Tell us what happened."

"You know, I didn't know how bad it was going to be. Look, all that's been done to this country, and I heard that string was being dangled in front of people's faces, only to have them take it away afterwards, I never even considered torture. I thought I could hold out, but it was hideous and horrific. If I knew it was going to be this bad, I wouldn't have done it. How long did I hold out? 5 seconds? And what was the average? 10? Damn, now I feel like a complete pussy. I want to thank Videosift, I want to thank my family for praying for me, and I'm going to go to the EMT to check me out, because I'm feeling kinda nauseous. My hands, Christ, look at my hands! They're SHAKING."

Why don't you ever want to play?
I'm tired of this piece of string.
You sleep as much as I do now, and you
don't eat much of anything.

I don't know who you're talking to
I made a search through every room,
but all I found was dust that moved
in shadows of the afternoon.

And listen,
about those bitter songs you sing?
They're not helping anything.
They won't make you strong.

So, we should open up the house.
Invite the tabby two doors down.
You could ask your sister, if
she doesn't bring her Basset Hound.

And I'll cater
with all the birds that I can kill.
Let their tiny feathers fill
disappointment.

Lie down;
lick the sorrow from your skin.
Scratch the terror and begin
to believe you're strong.

All you ever want to do is drink and watch TV,
and frankly that thing doesn't really interest me.
I swear I'm going to bite you hard and taste your tinny blood
if you don't stop the self-defeating lies you've been repeating
since the day you brought me home.
I know you're strong
