It really isn’t, because this is what I see:

If you use Jerboa, don’t be fooled, the image I uploaded isn’t actually broken. This is just what broken images look like.
gregorum, The famous pipe. How people reproached me for it! And yet, could you stuff my pipe? No, it’s just a representation, is it not? So if I had written on my picture “This is a pipe”, I’d have been lying!

This one took me a minute. But yes, it's not. Don't linger on that thought too long, though. The words that you read right now... are those my words?
Klear, Am I the one writing this comment or the one reading it?

I love the (currently one) down vote on your post. Clearly not a connoisseur of René’s work.
Your shower thought on the other hand is on point!
Nicely done.

Agreed. OP did well.
And it’s an opportunity for me to re-post this seminal picture (or, one instance of it):

Klear, Also an excuse to post my favourite Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal comic.

😆 that’s a good one! I haven’t seen it before, and I thought I’d gone through all of them (to date)! Cheers!
nycki, It’s a digital image of a painting!
(Six, if you fold the pages back.)
