Me: "I can tricep press as much as you can! Look!"
Geekman: "That's pretty impressive."
Me: "That's because I'm super strong. Superstrong. Like superstring. But stronger."*
Geekman: "I hate to disappoint you, but I think the tensile strength of a superstring is probably greater than that of your muscle fibres."
Me: "But my muscles are made up of superstrings, right?"
Geekman: "I guess that means you are more than the sum of your part... icles."
