oh these smartie farts

i had a scheme which i used when someone explains something that i'm trying to
understand: i keep making up examples. for instance, the mathematicians would
come in with a terrific theorem, and they're all excited. as they're telling me the conditions of the theorem, i construct something which fits all the conditions. you know, you have a set (one ball) - disjoint (2 balls). the the balls turn colour, grow hairs, or whatever, in my head as they put more conditions on. finally, they state the theorem, which is some dumb thing about the ball which isn't true for my hairy green ball, so i say, 'FALSE!'
