TRIANGLE VS. SEPTAGON
Gripe against Septagon:
Since Triangle is one of the most famous shapes on Earth, and can’t even have dinner out in public without getting disturbed, he greatly envies that Septy has been able to remain virtually unknown for so long.
Memory from childhood:
It and its friends were always able to make much better pyramids than the cheerleading squad.

(Note: It does not like to be called Heptagon. It never has. And no, it doesn’t care what Wikipedia thinks.)
Gripe against Triangle:
The fact that it stays Triangle no matter how distorted it gets. If stretched, Circle becomes Oval, Square becomes Rectangle, and almost everyone else just gets lumped in together as a polygon. But, oh, no, not Triangle. Its identity is never threatened.
Memory from childhood:
Being proud that it was related to September, but hating that bullies teased it by claiming that it was really related to Septic-Tank.

Septagon is the black sheep of the "shape" family. Besides a couple of coins, when has it ever even seen the light of day? Never!
ReplyDeleteGotta be triangle. but watch out for the pointy corners, they'll take your eye out
I have to go with the highly popular triangle on this one. I just can't get cozy next to a septagon like I can with a triangle.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a septagon's purpose in life? I never seen anything shaped like a septagon.
ReplyDeleteTriangle is the shit. Case closed.
I almost feel bad for septy, since I know triangle is going to win all the way.
ReplyDeleteSorry, Septy, triangles are just friggin' cool.
ReplyDeletePoint: triangle :)
Triangle - heebs FTW! And yes I am jewish so therefore I can say that
ReplyDeleteTriangle FTW!
ReplyDeleteLet's see, I campaigned full-force for the lens, and Reputation made the right call in the end. However, I'm shocked to learn that the losing team gets donuts and coffee. Skip the coffee, but make my donut a chocolate one. GO SEPTAGON!!

I guess I have to go with the triangle because I love stars :)

totally feel like i'm just following everyone else, but i was going to say triangle anyway.... i loved math when i was little and there really weren't any formulas (that i can remember) about how to calculate the height of a septagon.... although i completely understand and feel its pain of being a complete nerd and outcast.... i have to go with triangles on this one....
ReplyDeletewhat the world really doesn't know is that he's totally part of the septum.... that was like his biological birth canal or something like that....
I gotta go with Robyn on this. I was in the losing camp in both the previous battles and enjoyed the donuts. I must go with the Septagon on this one.
ReplyDeleteI have to go with my Egyptian heritage and give a shout out to my Egyptian brothers and sisters.... Look at those beautiful pyramids....
ReplyDeleteTriangle is the winner.... Hands down....
It might surprise you that I'm not going for the underdog (I do love those donuts and coffee) but I'm going to have to also go with triangle. It's clearly the coolest shape on the planet. In fact, I think it is supremely unfair of you to pit it against the septagon, which, let's face it, is barely even a real shape.
ReplyDeletePlus, there are three types of triangles, so there's bound to be a triangle for you. I've already decided that when my gangsta rap career takes off, I'm changing my name to Isoceles Jones.
TS, I am shocked and appalled. How is it possible that so many people don't like donuts? Oh well, more for us.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Robyn

Okay first septagon sounds like the evilest evil Transformer...strike one!
ReplyDeleteDraw 7 lines on a septagon and you have 7 triangles therefore triangles create septagon...strike two!
Triangle is like a primary color of shapes, without it most other shapes could not exist...strike three
Septagon...you're out!
Triangle wins hands down.
