"The Real Music of the Future": an illustration from an 1888 issue of Punch magazine. The caption reads: "Signor Fohhorni, the Great Hibernian Basso-Tenore Robusto-Profondo, is so disgusted at the frivolity of contemporary musical taste (which is not ripe enough to appreciate him), that he gives up all attempts to please the present generation: he buys a phonograph instead, and devotes his energies to singing for posterity. By applying his ear to this marvellous instrument immediately after signing into it, he not only hears his song echoed back to him out of the dim future, but he also hears the rapturous applause of Unborn Millions!"

"Watching the skittle players," from In the Ardennes by Katharine Sarah Macquoid, 1881.
Interestingly, we sent this image to a games aficionado, but he wasn't convinced that the pig was truly spectating skittles players. He felt that the pig's expression was inscrutable, and the so-called skittle players are out-of-frame. Yet the caption tells us what we're seeing; "case closed" as far as we're concerned. To paraphrase René Magritte, this is not a pig, anyway. If we can't roll with it, we'll never knock down any pins.

This is the best "foodstuffs with humanoid legs" item we've seen all week + n. The stout and the bread are musicians (why not the rum? Well, reggae traces back only to the 1960s), while Sir Loin sits out the dance and reads a paper. We do note one inaccuracy -- the butter in the U.K. is much bigger than that. Note the one foodstuff that costs 3 d/2 -- is it perchance mutton dressed in lamb prices? From The Dawn of the XIXth Century in England, 1886.

Dostoyevsky on nonsense, from Crime and Punishment:
Do you suppose I’m going on like this because they talk nonsense? Rubbish! I like it when they talk nonsense! Talking nonsense is the sole privilege mankind possesses over the other organisms. It’s by talking nonsense that one gets to the truth! I talk nonsense, therefore I’m human. Not one single truth has ever been arrived at without people first having talked a dozen reams of nonsense, even ten dozen reams of it, and that’s an honourable thing in its own way; well, but we can’t even talk nonsense with our own brains! Talk nonsense to me, by all means, but do it with your own brain, and I shall love you for it. To talk nonsense in one’s own way is almost better than to talk a truth that’s someone else’s; in the first instance you behave like a human being, while in the second you are merely being a parrot! The truth won’t go away, but life can be knocked on the head and done in. I can think of some examples. Well, and what’s our position now? We’re all of us, every one of us without exception, when it comes to the fields of learning, development, thought, invention, ideals, ambition, liberalism, reason, experience, and every, every, every other field you can think of, in the very lowest preparatory form of the gymnasium! We’ve got accustomed to making do with other people’s intelligence — we’re soaked in it! It’s true, isn’t it? Isn’t what I’m saying true?

In French, the equivalent expression to "If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times" is "Si je l'ai dit une fois, je l'ai dit trente-six fois." Can you prove that the two numbers are indeed equivalent?
Answer: Thirty-six and one thousand are equivalent for very small values of one thousand and very large values of thirty-six. (The answer is in black text on the black background. Highlight it to view.)

Thirty-six times! What moderate hyperbole! In some cases, it might even be an underestimate.

With this diagram, Punch (1841) pokes fun at phrenology by classifying the four great divisions of the stomach. Amazingly, the spoof is perfectly accurate! The "Sustaining Faculties" at the lower belly take cognizance of those staple foods which are essential to the sustenance of animal life. The "Affections" govern the more delicate appetites gratified by the contemplation of finer meals to come. The "Superior Sentiments" at the center "direct the stomach to the investigation of sauces, French cookery, and other abstruse subjects." The "Intellectual Taste" at the top of the belly is "the faculty of reasoning and reflecting upon the abstract qualities of olives, the Italian salads, of comparing Stilton with Gruyère cheese, and tracing the relation between turtle-punch and headache."

The context for this illustration is rather lovely. A Jewish mystic fixes a precious opal in a frame "not unlike that of a looking glass," hangs it on a silk thread attached to the ceiling, and then opens a window to allow in a stream of sunlight. "It was never known what the old Jew said, but he whispered to the stone just as if it could hear, and then said to his son, 'Thou seest that that crystal focuses the light from heaven, and thou seest that the focus is at the end of this silken thread. Now, this precious opal will go forth in search of truth, and it will tell thee whether this marriage, if it be undertaken, will be for thy good or not. Thou must sit with closed eyes at the other side from the crystal; the rays from the sun will fall direct upon the gem when it is at rest; then when I tell thee to open thine eyes, mark well the colour thou first seest, and, according to that, we will settle how this matter is to be.'" The mystic then swings the gem to and fro, like a pendulum, then leaves it to itself. "Gradually its oscillations became less and less, until at last, just as he was getting somewhat impatient, the young man heard a quick, sharp word, 'Look!' and he opened his eyes and fixed them upon the stone. A blue blaze of fire met his eye, blue as the heavens, bright as the sun in those heavens." Yellow would have indicated gold. Red would have been danger. Blue meant: "Prize above all its heavenly hue; It guides to what is just and true." (The Quiver, 1889, p. 871.)
