It's a map for a 101-sign version of rock-paper-scissors. Mouse over "Math".

Enjoy.

Is it just me, or does nothing happen? Is it just me, and this is some clever clever post-modern comment on # that passes me by? I love the # but this just warns me, in grey, how big the file is going to be, a file that never comes ....

I second that, Johnny. Except in my case, it crashes my browser after displaying some warning for half a millisecond. Which I obviously can't read.

Worked fine for me, even in Firefox. 101 different flash rollover events, so yeah it's big. You're not missing anything, though. Just rock paper scissors with most of the signs requiring two hands. TWO HANDS. Fundamentally unsound.

So according to RPS 101, Duck beats Satan!? Butter beats Gun!? Sponges beat Robots!???

Well, sponges would get the robot all wet.

Butter would get all in the barrel and casing of the gun, and would induce corrosive buildup.

And ducks could totally kick Satan's ass.

but the best part is the gesture for butter

if you click on them it gives an explanation:
duck doesn't interest satan
butter greases gun
sponge cleans robot

(very few of them seem to make sense).

in other news, happy post #1300 to me.

Took me a few minutes to realize the intent of that was to mime a churn.

Churns are so hot.
