A pithy lit'l ge(R?)m..!! <3 :)

A R[ae]gex quote...!! :)

Recently, this quote "came to me" out of nowhere, in response to a cute little cartoon shared by my dear friend Arun Kapoor...

And i felt it deserve(s/d) to be shared...with YOU too/esp....!! J

================

"....OLL i need....is a 

((CARTOON)?(ist)?) (FRienD)?...

Hmmm...."

:~ me-(mo)R(on)

================

Yes !!

I couldn't believe it...!

It was a unique, REGEX quote...where (expr)? denotes 0 or 1 occurrences of expr --TRY it..! :)

And then, I spontaneously thought (& wrote!) aloud (on FaceBook). . .

that 

since there aRe 3 ? symbols, (0 or 1 occurrences!), there aRe 2^3 = 8 possible combinations & hence quotes possible...! 

Now, that's pithy....ain't it..!?! ;-) :P
[

Yeah...what a PiTy...!! :( 

Indeed it is...that the language has to suffer a fool like me gladly !:D

"....OLL i need....is a...Hmmm..."
--Sadness...un-expressed emotions..!! :-(::

================

* * (001)

"....OLL i need....is a FRienD...Hmmm...."
--Loneliness...

================

Soon, I also observed that (010) & (011) r not meaningful...

* * (010)  "....OLL i need....is a...ist...Hmmm..."
&
* * (011)  "....OLL i need....is a ist FRienD...Hmmm..."

================

But the REMAINING were oLL fine :)

"....OLL i need....is a CARTOON...Hmmm...." --again, someone lonely...but who loves cartoons..! :P [who else..! :P]

================

"....OLL i need....is a CARTOONist...Hmmm...." --Purrhaps..the editor of a newspaper/magazine..!? :P

================

‎* * (111)
"....OLL i need....is a CARTOONist FRienD...Hmmm...." --straight-forward... :)

================

Sorry fer irritating oll by stating the 'obvious' (?!)...but ONLY becoz i tried it did i realize that 2 of them were invalid..!

But as I've quoted E.T.Bell in my blog ,

"Obvious, is the most dangerous word in mathematics." 

Thanks fer bearing with me...!

Lots of LOVE & Bessst Wishes...AL(L)ways...as always...! :)
