Skyler Blue@Sophie internal reasoning: which one do I less want thrown at me?
🇨🇦 TRH 🇨🇦@skylerblue @Sophie The one with less mass?
@Mayor_of_Smartarse @Sophie Assuming they have the same density and volume, of course
@skylerblue @Sophie And distance from the target? Cubes aren't terribly aerodynamic, might be worth taking the chance on a miss... 😜
@Mayor_of_Smartarse @Sophie FINE Assuming all else is equal and the object *will* hit you…

@skylerblue @Sophie Well then, I'll take whatever is closest to a sphere rather than a brick 😂
@Mayor_of_Smartarse @Sophie Exactly! So at least we can agree that “Less Pointy” is synonymous with “More Closely approximates a Sphere”
@skylerblue @Mayor_of_Smartarse just want to step into the most pedantic conversation I’ve ever seen with:
A cube and an octahedron are duals so they are each equidistant to “spherical” depending on how you want to measure it.
@Sophie @Mayor_of_Smartarse I'm sorry to spoil what I voted, but is it not Visually Evident that a Cube is Closer to a Sphere?
@skylerblue @Sophie Which would you rather step on in bare feet sneaking to the fridge at 1am? I'm going with 8 sides tyvm 😁
