That's a false wassname.
She battled through in every kind of tribulation,
She revelled in adventure and imagination.
She never listened to no hater, liar,
Breaking boundaries and chasing fire.
Oh, my my! Oh my, she flies!

No, your question was a kind of false dilemma.
She battled through in every kind of tribulation,
She revelled in adventure and imagination.
She never listened to no hater, liar,
Breaking boundaries and chasing fire.

We bozos don't care. We just want to pretend that we've been serenaded by a bird lovely lady.

For anybody watching, the concept of a lead balloon is absolutely singular.

First, what is 'two' other than a collection of ones? That is, things only exist as ones, or even as one [collection of ones]. Of course, nothing is a non-existent qualifier and so no thing exists as nothing, and if it does then it is wrong to call it nothing. So spare me the spiel.

So, we have ones. But how many? Numerous or one? Well, let's consider the former. If we have numerous ones then they're all separated by, err, does not compute... they cannot be separated.
One on the Left and One on the Right. Can you tell Left from Right, my dear Coproduct? If so, you can count as high as you like.
Here we go again. First, we discover recursion.

Because nothing cannot separate anything and thus every one thing must be intimately connected. A flow of one thing into the next, so to speak. But then if this is the case then every one thing is in fact just one thing behaving in numerous ways.

So there ya go. A proof that all of existence is one thing, in about a hundred words.

Consequently, the prices of my robes and sandals have just increased in price. Supply & demand, I'm afraid.

How do you know that ones are not both numerous and intimately connected? And isn't this the worst violence? And how come I can't get no tang around here?

Presumably because people force tang upon you.

I'm talking about a kind of orange drink. Is that what Thommo is talking about? Or do I need an adult?

One day your trolling will get you banned. And when that day comes, I'll be sitting on a beanbag and drinking a cappuccino. Not because I want to, but because I have to.

I was going to say something obvious, but I stopped myself. See how much effort I put into everything here? How much of myself I invest?

Two is NOT a collection of 1's. 2 is {{},{{}}}, which is quite a different thing from 1. So, never mind then?
