photo of a rock
Ceci n’est pas une rock
The Treachery of Memes
That’s not a rock. That’s a picture of a rock.
Ce n’est pas un rocher
“Ceci” si tu veux être précis
I was looking for this :)
No, that’s a jpeg representation on your screen of a photo of a rock.
It’s a jpeg representation on your screen of a photo of a rock which you probably have observed with your eyes
I haven’t seen this particular rock with my own eyes.
To further the spirit of the topic:
picture: An individual painting, drawing, or other representation on a surface, of an object or objects; esp. such a representation as a work of art. (Now the prevailing sense.)
image: An optical appearance or counterpart of an object, such as is produced by rays of light either reflected as from a mirror, refracted as through a lens, or falling on a surface after passing through a small aperture. Such an appearance may also be a mere subjective impression on the sense of sight, as an after-image (q.v.), and the negative image or accidental image seen after looking intently at a bright-coloured object, and having a colour complementary to that of the object. An image produced by reflexion or refraction is called in Optics a real image when the rays from each point of the object actually meet at a point, a virtual image when they diverge as if from a point beyond the reflecting or refracting body.

I’m here to put the F back in Art
That’s not my dad, that’s a cell phone. Duh!
rock
Clearly a stone.
Failed again.
It’s an image.
It’s clearly just binary code.
No u
Duh those are electrons.
More like quarks and other shit.
This is all just a collective hallucination
Right on, man.
Are you talking to me?
Or are you talking to yourself?
Or am I talking to myself?
How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real
The “other shit” being mostly electrons and photons.
Smaller shit than that. If you’ve got quarks in the mix, we’re looking for muons and Higgs bosons and the like.
This implies that you can both see where the electrons are and where they’re going. Obviously that’s impossible.
The only thing obvious is that obvious is but an illusion.
Yep, seems like a static gif file. That’s pronounced as jiff in case anyone was wondering.
It’s definitely not a pipe
No, it’s your display you are looking at
You’re just like Hitler, blocked.
Did I hear an rock and stone?
No that’s obviously a tiny boulder
Tiny boulders do not exist. you have obviously never seen a large boulder the size of a small boulder
Bite-sized mountain
I don’t think I want to bite that.
The pioneers used the ride these babies for miles.
Ride them for mules?
maybe a pebble. need banana for scale
The last exchange I read around the “banana for scale” thing was inconceivably contentious.
Where’s the NSFW flair on this baby boy?
could even be a boulder
Macrosand
you mean gravel?
Is it? Could be a pebble. We don’t have a scale after all.
I’ll be taking that rare earth mineral and you will say thank you. It’s for your own safety.
Rocks aren’t real people!!! Wake the fuck up and follow your instincts! It’s all a conspiracy conjured up by big GEOLOGY!
um…ROCK Hudson?? Dwayne Johnson?
Obviously sleeper agents to spread the infernal unnatural words of the geologist conspiracy. Rock Hudson! Just look how long they’ve been keeping the blinders on all of us.
so true!!!
True. OP needs to do his own reading.
The Brotherhood of Stone has been at this for centuries making people believe in rocks. Its the most despicable, heinous, ludicrous conspiracy that has its claws reaching into everything, literally everything. I’ve been researching it for decades and I still haven’t found just how far the rabbit hole goes.
Fucking Brotherhoods are never up to anything good.
Rocks are real people. That’s why they make great pets.
Rocks are not mere pets, do not be so arrogant to think of them as such. You might think of them as tools but you’d be wrong about that was well. We are the tools. We have been tools from the moment a human first picked up on of those profane things. A rock hungers for violence and murder yet lacks the capacity to perform such feats on its own. They use us, like Cain of old, to turn the grindstone wet with blood for goals beyond our understanding.
You’re out of your element, fleshoid.
Hey dude, fleshoid is not the preferred nomenclature, its meatbag.
I’m not your dude, buddy
And I’m not your buddy, bruh.
Walter, I’m not talking about someone who built the Spaceroads…
Clearly its not a rock as it is too smooth to be from nature and has been polished by hand.
You discount the precise erosion of the rivers!
Now this is just Big River talks.
True. The only thing eroding here is our liberties.
Have you ever seen a river bed?
Why would a river need a bed? Does it even get tired?
Of course? All that flowing. Why do you think rivers sometimes run dry? Because they’re exhausted!
Obviously you haven’t seen a good natural rock.
It’s a MINERAL, Marie.
Rock N’ Roll will never die! 😎🤘🎸
My first thought was it being an incorrect first line and my brain went “and I’m getting stoned.”
"She got a rock,
And I’m gettin’ stoned"
But then had that very programmed feeling of you shouldn’t say that because you aren’t getting stoned and you don’t want people to think of you as getting up and getting stoned on a Saturday morning. Talk about being programmed to fear what other people think.
Anyways Eric Church has a couple songs I liked
But this one’s not rollin’
… Otherwise we’d be hatin’
Rock and roll was slain by the metal in the year 2012 but rose again as an undead revenant abomination. Yeah it won’t die now but it had to die in order to become that way. They’re trying to cover it up but I know the truth.
Gray egg.
Why a rock?i want a snack
What size are we talking here? Looks like a pebble to me, fucker.
This is Patrick
I will fucking murder you over this rock.
It’s mine.
🔫🧑🚀 step away.
On my side it’s a bitmap image
