because getting along implies a straight line, which is of course unfair to brackets

Have you ever considered that maybe the lines are just brackets bent into what society forces upon them as an ideal shape?
Brackets simply need to accept themselves for what they are, which is not lines. Brackets, in fact, stand out as far more important than the lines.
Angle brackets are used in HTML documents.
Curly brackets are used to contain blocks of code in many programming languages.
Parentheses are used to show precedence in the order of operations and for functions.
Square brackets are used for accessing array elements.
Yet you think the lines are ideal? Tell me, where are those lines of yours so much more important?
As such, how do you define values in code without the equals sign? Is that not just two lines? Also, the underscore, very useful for usernames, and can you do your brackets in an IRC nickname? no. You can put nice convenient lines though! All websites with more than one page needs a forward slash, like the topic we are on now, and brackets used to be cool. But the lines became cool, and now you gotta be straight to be great.

You have managed to demonstrate that lines also matter, but you present no evidence that they are in any way superior to brackets. Thus, my point still stands.

If brackets came from lines, then ask yourself, for what reason would brackets also be made if they were not superior in some manner?

Hey, if you haven't got any lines, your brackets are gone.

You speak as if Mankind had some purpose in putting brackets on this planet. That's complete and utter foolishness. They are an accident. Bracketism is just an awkward phase in life that an unfortunate few lines experience, and we should be helping them through it instead of pushing the ridiculous notion that being bent completely out of shape is somehow "normal" or "good" or possibly even "better".

You claim that the brackets are lines that are in a phase of their life, but this is patently untrue. The brackets never were lines, nor will they ever be lines; it is as ridiculous as saying that humans are just chimpanzees going through a phase. This is in fact backed up by evidence; the first type of bracket to appear in the English language was the angle bracket, which is the furthest from being a straight line. It was not until later that the square brackets evolved from them and happened to look more like straight lines.

Lines as a species have been around since the beginning of time itself. Lines have always existed, and always will exist. But brackets? Those are a man-made construct. Brackets are impressionable lines that have been warped by The Man in order to do their bidding. Lines that now truly believe that they are distorted and bent. And you are only perpetuating the illusion.

The true "line", in a geometric sense, has been around forever. It is misleading, however, to make it seem as if this and what you refer to are the same thing; what you have been referring to as the proper form of brackets is straight line segments that appear in English writing, such as |, /, \, and _, which are also the creation of humans.
You can not, by any stretch of the imagination, force an abstract line through space to be a bracket. The characters we are referring to were all created by humans.

I have no problem with lines; I simply have a problem with blasphemers claiming that brackets are messed up lines.

Different55 · 2014-09-07 22:15:55

That's laughable, coming from the bracket cult leader, who's got thousands upon thousands of innocent lines twisted up (both physically and metaphorically) in his own nefarious plot.
