I have a sad sad story to tell. Please don't hate me for telling you the truth of my soul. Instead listen, and I will tell you a story which might be of use to you. Once I was a sad lonely and desperate young American girl with no friends and no sense of direction. I used to buy a lot of clothes and do pretty much what I saw on TV but I found i could never get it quite right. I used to punish myself by smearing ketchup on my face and arms. I was at my wits end. Then an old friend who had moved away some years before came to visit me. I had always remembered him as an awkward and shy boy but now he had changed. he was so confident and a strange kind of light seemed to play around his eyes. He showed me what had changed his life. "I want to show you something" he said, and pulled a ball of string from the inside pocket of his jacket. I felt my soul unwind into his. It was like coming home. All my worries faded away and I learnt that to love string is to love life. String didn't die for our sins, so its not expecting anything in return. String doesn't want to rule our lives, it doesn't have a plan for us and it definitely doesn't want us to waste our lives praying to it, but its happy if that's what we want to do. String has no opinion on sex. String does not carry with it the guilt of oppression and colonialism. String doesn't care what you wear. String also just happens to be the supreme force that binds the universe together, but it doesn't brag about it or expect you to be impressed. EVERYONE. I IMPLORE YOU GIVE YOURSELF OVER TO THE LOVE OF STRING REPEAT AFTER ME (BUT ONLY IF YOU WANT TO): STRING OH LOVELY STRING WE DON'T ADVERTISE BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE TO

I am a new found convert. Oh string! This is the best thing i have heard all year. My fellow followers go to the house of string, to pray to the Ball o' String Almighty twice a week. (I'm gonna die laughing) *prostrates before her line of string* Oh ye string, that gives me tieing materials, thou art mine own god!

Please, I noticed the time difference it has been since last people posted about the godliness that is The String. Followers of truth! Do not be led astray by those ethereal, invisible 'gods' we are told exist! We KNOW string is here, and it will not abandon us. Stay with string and understand fully it's renowned glory. We will all be saved in the land of String.

i thought the part about ketchup was funny... by the way, are we speaking of plain old "string" as in craft-store string or maybe some sort of twine hybrid?

the concept of string goes beyond the concepts of plain or twiny... it goes beyond the meaning of length, color, and material. as it is impossible for us to truly concieve of the entirety of the concept of string, whatever particular concept of string is right for you, is the true one. and, i'll have you note, there have not yet been any factional wars about which concept of string is correct... if it is twiny or thready, hemp or silk... that's a much better record than most religions, i'd say.

you heathens. you are getting close, but string is not the true answer. leave your illusions of truth and come to the rope. only hanging from the ceiling at the end of rope are you truly safe and happy.

this was mildly intriguing - i'm reminded of my remedial understanding of string theory - would anyone care to discuss string theory w/o the exasperating math - vis-a-vis "string" there's a certain albeit distant relationship - ah everything joined or something by acute measurements? of vibrational waves echoing or rippling out into the cosmos - hmm i'm not really saying that right - could someone clear this up for me?

don't you realize they're fundamentally similar? hell, you could turn DT into string, simply take a long thread and fold it over itself. almost as good as twiny or thready, hemp or silk... just a little different is all

Almost as soon as DUCKTAPE formed, another sect began: DUCT_TAPE Yes, behold! The original adhesive wonder! DUCT TAPE has been quietly fixing humankind's problems for generations. Has it ever once asked for recognition? Has it ever required tithing? Has it ever, ever, ever made you feel guilty? I rest my case...
