hey all,

a recent reply on a thread on here got me thinkin?
the old adage of 'how long is a piece of string' has never really been established or has it?
so with enuff brain cells mushed together on here maybe this adage can be answered thus enlighten everyone with 'how long is a piece of string'

my answer:
the same distance as it takes a week to walk a fortnight.

any one else want to tackle this unanswered question?

btw you ppl people you clicked on this thread for cheap smut i say, well i woulda clicked here as well.. :P

A length of a piece of string is precisely double the length of it after it has been folded in half...

Its as long as from point A to point B
sometimes if you fold it in half then its only half as long

but if you fold it in half then there is the distance of the turn around - so half aint exactly half

yes that would be slightly less than the origional piece of strings then

Is that Pie r squared or 2 times the radius

sad

ah but if you join the two ends together it could go on forever?

If you joined the there would b a knot taht u would bump into all the time

If you joined the there would b a knot taht u would bump into all the time

could, but depends on how the join was made. What I find most frustrationg is the question h posted does not specify if the string is standard string or silly string.

That's so easy. It's as long as it is.

well if it was silly string it would be all over the floor lika a mad womans sh i teeeee

not if some one shortened it

i was taught the usually the first half was exactly half but the last half was not because by the time you get to the last half you are tired anfdthan the mesurment is out thus buggering up at mathamatics
hope that clears all thosae silly thoughts

On a similar vein, I wonder if the first person who said "I wouldn't be dead for quids" is still alive?

I think he died. And of course it is only as long as you want it to be which is usuall just short of long enough! If that makes sense.

I know 4 sure if the string is too long, its only too long at one end.

hmmm $2.63..
well didnt quite look at it in that light
so maybe you could extrapalate the difference between both..
! that reminds me of the 'goodies' ep with the string song in it..
come to think of it it was about string that ep.. funny stuff!

mr. bond - sad.. huh? dude your on here a bit so 'whats all that about?' haha

extrapalate
dam i just gotta fit that in somewhere sunday will impress my wife some she thinks i'm a little short of a full deck

I like your wifes thinking:P

it about as long as a word as this origional piece of string

a string = a cubic

twice half the distance from one end to the middle

screw this ! how longs the hare on a rabbits back ?

same length as apiece of string silly

well $2.63 we are waiting my dear..

It depends what colour the string is.

seriously people

a length of string is precisely twice half its length

now doesn't that make sense :P
