Lords of Death Forums Lords of Death Forums LoD General Discussion Apples and Oranges: A Comparison

"It's like comparing apples and oranges"
I always thought that it meant, "you're trying to compare two totally different things," but now I see that it means, "despite many similarities, the overall taste and benefits of the two fruits are entirely different."
comparing apples and oranges...
1- skin to protect the fruit within
2- they're fruits
3- contain the genetic material to create a new tree in their wake
4- go great with breakfast and lunch, but aren't really eaten at dinner-time
5- create juice when juiced in a juicer
6- come from trees
6.5- can be sold straight from the tree, THEREBY NEGATING the statement that "money doesn't grow on trees,"
7- contain essential nutrients to sustain a healthy body
8- are integral to the part of the food pyramid that says "10 servings of fruits a day"
9 - different species appeal to different people (mandarin oranges & washington apples)
10 - jugglable.

contrasting apples and oranges...
1- taste
2- color
3- vitamin content
4- the tree they come from
5- skin thickness
6- the genetic material contained within their respective seeds create different species of trees.
6.5- depending on the market, apples may or may not be more valuable than oranges.
7- Smell

I think it would be more accurate to say... 'it's like comparing tablets to clay tablets.' orr.. it's like comparing... 'dogs to nitrogen.'

You came so close to cracking the case, detective Teriya, but there was a loose end.

Money is made from fabrics such as cotton and linen, which are derived from the protective casing around cotton seeds, and the stem of the Flax plant, respectively. Cotton is a shrub, and Flax is a flower. Neither of these substances grow on trees, nor do any metallic currencies.

I've been trying to get this guy to play ROK since launch. Instead, this is what he does with his time.

Why?

It's ok, I wrote this a year ago.

In a round-about way, money does grow on trees. Go to a tree, get an apple, trade it for a dollar. If they genetically modified cotton to grow on trees then money would almost literally grow on trees, so it is possible.

Go solve why molecular energy can't be reconstituted into a plasma entity.

Or just come play RoK.

Hahahah.

I'll be stealing this gif for future use.

Thanks,

Genetic modification will end this debate.
