IS IT TRUE?
Have you been talking to anonymint again?
I see you think you may have found humor in this, and I grant you it was an attempt, and probably the best someone with your limitations could come up with. In fact the
work I have done on humor is both extensive and nearly complete. Surely it would be complete we it not for tiny insect minds (like yours) combined with my general tiredness, and need to get onto other things like
- My " Proof of Haiku " hashing algorithm
- Tweaks to my "nested bullet list" theorem
- Improvements to my calculations as to the apocalypse
All of these are at least somewhat more important than my work on comedy.
That said, I have come to comment on an issue not entirely orthogonal to my comedy algorithm. It is most of all a complaint about Ricardo’s list.
But before I do that I must make some corrections.
Yep, that's (Knight Rider) definately a cylon....
No, you fools.
That is NOT Knight Rider! That is in fact a "Knight Industries Two Thousand" or as it is sometimes called:
KITT. So the entire permutation is COMPLETELY WRONG AT ITS CORE! "Knight Rider" must more correctly refer to the rescuee of the self made billionaire Wilton Knight (I must now pause parenthetically (which I often do (I don’t expect all of you to be able to keep up with (or even comprehend) the various depth of my parenthesis) for means of diversion) to mention that to be a BILLIONAIRE in the era before 1982 would even surpass my friend Risto as to wealth. And although there are many metrics for adjusting wealth for the terrible inflation hoisted upon the world by the Federal Reserve (not to mention the other central banking organizations) suffice it to say he would be somewhere on a parabolic arc of wealthierness.) who rescued a policeman and renamed him "Michael Knight". I personally identify with Michael Knight as someone who has needed to leave many former identities behind myself. It is this man who is the "Knight Rider". NOT the cylon like car you sub-men!
There was also a Knight 4000, and a "Knight Industries 2000". I would write Kinght 4k and Knight Industries 2k, but using the "k" for kilobyte, though not entirely uncommon in the computer world, had not really reached the world consciousness in the 80s. No to mention the resulting problem with "2048" and "4096" we also run into once we open that door. I personally think the show might have done even better if it had used a base 16 number as "Knight Industries 0x1388" just has a sort of panache.
Little is known about the Knight Industries 3500 who's debut never came despite letters to the show authors about this AND the base 16 idea ("Knight Industries 0x1388" would have been a tour de force). Evidently the show writers did not recognize someone whose achievements included authoring software used worldwide.
But to my main gripe with Fluffypony’s permutation of the words from Cylon Raider -> Knight Rider is his use of a simple linear permutation. And I know he had a goal in mind but there is a certain inexactness when you do not include every possible permutation. Which in this case would be expressed exponentially as n × n × ... (r times) = n
r which would leave us in … wait something has happened here. I seem to have switched to an entirely exponential font. Right as I was...
DAMN! My handlers are watching me again. They can see I am posting.
I am not able to continue at this time.
I will now delete this account forever and never return to this forum. After all someone has to actually solve some real problems while you beta males with Chryptorchidism play games with your internet money. (I doubt any of you are smart enough to even understand that joke (which was more of an insult (and a pun at the same time if you notice the prefix of the word (it’s not really a prefix as much as… oh wait… they are coming! ))))
Good day.
