Seen on a women's bathroom wall, "A hard man is good to find."
Is "paradoxically ordered chaos" a paradoxical statement? I never use modal in relation to verbs, only in relation to musical modes. I know some anal retentive grammarians use such terminology, but I try and remember to pray that they will be returned to a sane state of mind. Have you ever really looked at a scythe? It really doesn't look like a comma (see below). I think in general, you are way over shooting your mark if this is suppose to be bathroom humor, even on a university campus. Believe me I know about bathrooms on campus. Depending on which department section you are in, will determine what kind of humor will be written. I can no longer remember it the one in the math department, but it had something to do with "the angle of the dangle is the square root of the hypotenuse". except what it said made sense. Of course the bathrooms near the social fraternities had the lowest level of humor, about what you would see in a bar. The funny thing was there was hardly ever any in the English department, and if there was you could tell it wasn't by an English major. The only one I remember is one that said, "don't throw toothpicks in the toilet, crabs can poll vault."

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
