I AM A FREE! I AM NOT MAN! A NUMBER!

Makes perfect sense lol

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 23 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I am a FREE
I am NOT MAN

-- A NUMBER

With all the shit mathematicians invent, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a set called "free numbers" or "man numbers", but when you ask what those are, they're just gonna hit you with curly brackets and greek letters.

How could you write that on a sign and step back and say "Yep, that gets my point across."?

[–] dlhextall@sh.itjust.works 15 points 3 months ago

step back

Yeah, that's the part he didn't do.

[–] unreachable@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

point across

nope, more like "point downward"

You have to be deficient in logical thinking to reach this point to begin with.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 43 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I am a FREE

I am not MAN

A NUMBER

Given that The Prisoner is one of my favorite shows, I immediately read it wrong so that the sign made complete sense.

[–] MrJukes@lemmy.today 10 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Who is Number 1?

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

[–] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 3 months ago

You are number 6!

[–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I just watched it through, and it's such an interesting premise that I feel like they kind of forgot about as the show went on. The writers were also definitely on all of the drugs for the last few episodes.

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 7 points 3 months ago

We used to binge it 20 years ago by getting the DVD's from the library. I loved how so many episodes didn't even seem ti have any purpose other than the captures just trying to fuck with him.

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Can't even get the quote right. It's I am not a number, I am a free man. Not the other way around.

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 11 points 3 months ago

If he got that part right the sign would probably just end up like:

I am I am

A free Not A

Man Number

instead 😂

[–] slurpeesoforion@startrek.website 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Is that not Bruce? I'd hope he could remember his own lyrics.

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I thought it was referencing the TV show The Prisoner.

Reject MAN, return to FREE.

[–] Sunforged@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 months ago

Remember A NUMBER.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I am bummed out for that guy, who clearly worked pretty hard on that sign.

He looks real serious.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

He is a little upset.

Yes! I came here to say that the sign could be helped immeasurably with a line, but your image does that much more eloquently.

[–] Tamkish@programming.dev 6 points 3 months ago

I genuinely didn't understand what that sign was trying to say until now. Thank you

Idiot couldn't even get the line the right away around. "I am not a number. I am a free man!"
