These were posted on another forum I regular, no one there seems to get them, but I have more confidence in the forum's ability.

"And 4 is cosmic"
I'll write a correct phrase and you guys get to try and guess. If you get it, don't post the rule just start adding correct phrases to help out the others.
10 is 3, 3 is 5, 5 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
19 is 8, 8 is 5, 5 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
40 is 5, 5 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
41 is 8, 8 is 5, 5 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
9 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
32 is 9, 9 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
132 is 19, 19 is 8, 8 is 5, 5 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.
1 is 3, 3 is 5, 5 is 4, and 4 is cosmic.

"Deep, but not profound" (which I found easier than "4 is cosmic" is a word game in which I post sentences that are correct within the confines of the game, and you have to guess the rule and make a sentence that is correct. Again, if you get it, just right some true phrases.

To start off, I'll write some correct sentences.

Deep, but not profound.
Happy, but not sad.
Off, but not on.
Hello, but not hi.
Good, but not bad.
Yellow, but not red.
Green, but not blue.
Floor, but not ceiling.

Pegging, but not strapon.
Harness, but not dildo.
Butt, but not anal.
Yiffy, but not partnered.

Actually, I probably should have done this as "こころ, but not ⼼." (if that last Unicode character doesn't work for you, maybe 心 will...?)

Exactly. This stuff seems more completely random than smartly logical. How in the six moons can I be mystified when you're rambling on about a random series of numbers and words related to each other.

Talk straight, I said!

Correction - The number thing actually makes sense to me now.

'though truth-be-told, I really can't be bothered to do any of it.

Unless of course you don't include the and of one hundred and fourteen , in which case it's something else and I can't be bothered to figure it out.
