Lyrics junky alert! A shout-out to Ricardo Autobahn​ and Jenny McLaren of Spray. It is to say thanks for https://spray.bandcamp.com/track/rotating-the-square from Enforced Fun, and the wonderful line "You just can't keep doing that! It makes no sense! It's like rotating the square in Tetris!" I'm putting it alongside Stefan Gange's "Reality might not get out of Beta today" for memorable lines. https://spray.bandcamp.com/track/rotating-the-square

Via ... a long chain of plusses... Originally shared by Kristian Köhntopp »From Stanislaw Lem's "Return from the Stars" published in 1961: The books were crystals with recorded contents. They could be read with the aid of an opton, which was similar to a book but had only one page between the covers. At a touch, successive pages of the text appeared on it. « -- https://twitter.com/SeraphinaMadsen/status/811251711557926919
