The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics by Chuck Jones

there are only a few things in my life that i enjoyed when i was a kid and can still enjoy now on a deeper level

The Dot & The Line was the first to ever introduce me to the idea of a love story. and it always stuck with me, I grew up knowing I was a line and wanted to be the scribble It's crazy, i know. looking back NOTHING has changed I still relate to this.

this is still the best love story I have ever seen...wow thats pretty sad



the beauty of the story is that the line learned how to change and adapt, it worked to make itself the greatness that eventually won the dot over. its was "dazzling, clever, mysterious, versatile, eloquent, profound, enigmatic, complex, and compelling. its such a great lesson to learn.

outside of the meaning of the story the cartoon itself is a work of art. think about it Chuck Jones MADE YOU RELATE TO A FUCKING DOT & A LINE.
