What's your favorite shape ?

[m1469]

I think that my favorite shape is a triangle.  I like it.  I like it a lot (Jim Carey voice in Dumb and Dumber).  I also like spheres and archs ... you know archs, curved "lines" with no closed shape.

*this little light of mine ... I'ma gonna let it shine*

At the time my favorite shape is the catenary arch

Isn't that a parabola? Or are they synonymous terms?

[gszo0]

No definitively this is not parabola   

My favourite shape is Moebius strip.

[pianowolfi]

Oh yes Moebius strip is genius

And this one

I have changed my mind.

My favourite shape is the Mandelbrot Set.

Thal

[thierry13]

My favorite shape is the woman body.

[thalbergmad]

You would not think so if you had seen my ex girlfriend

More specific:  hourglass

[communist]

i like pentagons and curved segments

[pianochick93]

I like the squiggly

~~~

hmm...you could make a snail out of that...

\@~

It doesn't work as well...

[imbetter]

irregular pentagon

[gilad]

Wow, haha. I doubt m1469 was expecting so many of the same responses. But my favourite shape is definitely a womans body as well. Talk about geometry being fun:D

irregular pentagon

Is that a shape or a mere American anomaly?

Best,

Perhaps both?


My favorite shape would have to be the human form of either gender. I just think the human body is wonderfully constructed. I especially have a thing for hands.

[nanabush]

Triangle?

[pianolearner]

irregular pentagon

That what it becomes when you bisect it with a plane

he's probably a dropout from some geometry class...

[wotgoplunk]

I like a good dodecagon.

[pianochick93]

dodecahedrons are pretty cool as well.

also what's wrong with an irregular pentagon, it exists.

[point of grace]

squared pianos

nothing wrong with it, but what kind of freak could be fond of such shape?

An octagon

Circle

trapezoidal icositetrahedron for weekends and the not to be forgotten small ditragonal icosidodecahedron for weekdays

I think a circle (or a sphere) is a perfect shape. I like it a lot. If you think a little you'll see that circles are limited and infinit at the same time. I think it is a good description of our own universe.

 

[dinosaurtales]

Egg.  From one angle it's symmetrical.  From all other angles it's asymmetrical.  Very cool.

[gerry]

irregular pentagon

A result of all those anal-retentive military types perhaps.

What is the shape of the universe? Maybe we're a Mobius strip.

And circles don't tessellate

[pianorama]

This reminds me of a youtube video I once saw where one girl couldn't even name how many sides a triangle had. First she guessed, 'zero?' then 'one?'

I didn't mean it as "shape", but as the complex that life has in our universe, that seems to begin when it is ending and vice-versa, as a circle can perfectly show.
It's something called 'eternal return'.

Read Nietzsche, if you want, if you don't, you can't hyde from him. It's like Freud...

[communist]

im sticking with my answer but if a star counts that would be my favorite shape
