Wow, you look... really quaquaversal today. Your orientations are, like, crazy dense in SO3. Did you do something non-periodic with your tiles?

Years ago, after making a self deprecating joke, a coworker told me to have more self respect and then said, "Hang out with me and soon you'll need to buy new pants. You know why? Because your BALLS will be so big that they won't FIT anymore". She was like 60 years old. Good friend, good soul
