    "You know how that saying goes: You can't make a gyroelongated square bipyramid without dropping a few tiles" - Michael's DONG Toys, 2018
  • "Hey dad, why is my sister's name rose?"
    "Because your mom loves roses."
    "Thanks dad."
    "No problem strictly convex gyroelongated square bipyramid deltahedron."

  • Just imagine walking down a dark alley, carrying your cube when suddenly Vsauce Michael jumps out of nowhere and says "Hey! Vsauce, Michael here! That's a nice cube you got there. It'd be a shame if it got SNUBIFIED "
  • 2:59 “You can make a prism out of anything... well, you can’t make a prism out of ANYTHING. Like, you can’t make a prism out of, Justice.”

    Michael: a square anti-prism
    Me: Cuben't
  • @devuns1522
    Vsauce: talks about shapes and how they're formed
    Goblin Brain: D20, D8...

    “You couldn’t make a prism out of like...
    Justice”

    You cast a light and onto justice and then that light is divided amongst the eyes of the people.

    Michael, an intellectual: lets make a tetrahedron.
    Also Michael: What sound does llamas make? bblllaeregselweggerel
  • “You know how that saying goes, you can’t make a gyro elongated square bipyramid without dropping a few tiles. Got me through a lot of rough parts in my life.”
  • This made me realize that 3d models for sonic and Mario and such are essentially gyroelongated shapes with thousands of sides. Neat!
