I recently noticed how, when I drink from a very cold drink, then put the lid on, the bottle will collapse slightly. The room-temperature air that enters the bottle whilst I drink is cooled by the still-cold liquid inside, and reduces in pressure.
These collapsing bottles seem rather boring - sometimes
the sides buckle slightly, sometimes a bit of the base folds in. I'm sure with a little variation in thickness of the plastic of the bottle, it would be possible to make a simple sculpture - perhaps a bottle that bends itself into an arch, pleats itself, or maybe even makes a jellybaby like human form. The sky is literally way beyond the limit.
It would be even better if you did not know about it before hand, and went back to a half-flempty bottle in the fridge to find it had twisted into an interesting spiral shape.

You mean the limit is beyond the sky. |

Beyond, limitless literacy is the skyway |

//You mean the limit is beyond the sky// I suppose it depends on what direction you are coming from |

<Note to elf> When you think - shall I put that stupid phrase in or leave it out - next time leave it out </nte> |
|

disregarding that phrase...still a nice idea - here's a shrink wrapped croissant. + |

I like the phrase. The limit, the boundary, is the bottle. Indeed, zeno proposes the exact opposite of your literal truth. |

Can I have mine in brown plastic, so that it can shrivel up into a little cat turd that no one will touch? Excellent idea...what idiot boned this? (see a little bit of the opposite of it in link) |

An image of Jesus, with a single enigmatic phrase beneath it, "vis per famulus" |

Other halfway potential taglines: |
|
|
// The sky is literally way beyond the limit. // |
|
|
// a half-flempty bottle in the fridge // (whatever that means) |
|
|
Its twice as much as a quarter-flempty bottle
obviously, [notexactly] |
