I thought this was going to be a torch that radiated
darkth. |
|
|
I thought this was going to be a flashlight that shined
the image of a croissant on the wall... |
|
|
//shined// Past tense: shoon |

Shoon sounds like something I shouldn't be doing.
"You shoon be riding your bicycle in the snow", you
know... |

The funny thing about the halfbakery is it's not really inventing things. |
|
|
Of course not. That would take skill, time and expertise. All I have is a computer with an internet connection. |
|
|
//skill, time and expertise// |
|
|
Someone who actually wants to invent something. |

<looks up in the sky, notices a croissant-shaped cloud illuminated against the night sky> |

[marked-for-ridicule], Bad Pseudoscience, wilful and gratuitous contradiction of the Widely Known To Be Probably Right "Dark Sucker" hypothesis ... |
|
|
I'd subtly ease into the ridicule, followed by casting aspersions through the alienating medium that raises questions about the origin of knowledge through inherent willfulness. |
|
|
Will it also counterpoint the surrealism of the underlying metaphor ... ? |
|
|
<puts on philosopher's cap> But would the light actually BE, or would it merely suggest cognition by the reader? <removes philosopher's cap> |
|
|
My cell phone isn't a smartphone. Does this mean I'm not allowed to use it as a flashlight? |
|
|
//the window followed by mirrored glass was a major technological factor in the development of photography//
...and advancements in photography allowed the design of the first printed circuit boards.... |
