The fact that she had enacted such retribution led to speculation that roll zero was of Minerva's doing, however, in a public statement given at the site of the smiting, she denied all involvement with roll zero, and denied that any god of any pantheon had had anything to do with it. The origin of roll zero, therefore, remains unknown. | The fact that she had enacted such retribution led to speculation that roll zero was of Minerva's doing, however, in a public statement given at the site of the smiting, she denied all involvement with roll zero, and denied that any god of any pantheon had had anything to do with it.

Since Minerva enacted her vengeance, developments in [[ | Since Minerva enacted her vengeance, developments in [[quantum physics]] and wormhole technology have given every household direct access to roll zero, giving rise to a repair revolution. | ||

Scientists theorise that roll zero is infinite because it pulls its tape from some sort of pocket universe, which has been dubbed "the tapeverse". Expeditions into the tapeverse via roll zero were planned in 2019, however the possibility of a sticky situation arising was, of course, very high, so they went into the spiderverse instead. Yeah. Great choice if you want to avoid sticky situations. | Scientists theorise that roll zero is infinite because it pulls its tape from some sort of pocket universe, which has been dubbed "the tapeverse".

A vast number of experiments have been run on duct tape, though none have been conclusive as to what the limits of its strength are, nor how this strength originates. | A vast number of experiments have been run on duct tape, though none have been conclusive as to what the limits of its strength are, nor how this strength originates. [[User:Thesamplemotion|Sample]]<nowiki/>s have been burnt, submerged in water, submerged in acids, submerged in alkalis, chewed up by a pack of wild dogs, dropped into a volcano, sent a strongly-worded letter, voted off Big Brother, pitted against Mechagodzilla, exposed to the power of the seven Chaos Emeralds, thrown into the Time Vortex, left in a swamp for 100 million years, made illegal, made legal again, launched into space, scientifically disproven, attacked by the gods, attacked by the metaphysical [[God]], and even given a firm talking-to, but nothing could break them. That is, of course, apart from a talk about careers given at an unnamed university in April 2025, during which a sample that was present at the talk appeared to tear itself apart out of boredom. It seems the only thing breakable about duct tape is its patience. | ||

Nobody has tried to use duct tape to compose a fugue, so it is unknown whether or not it could create counterpoint. | Nobody has tried to use duct tape to compose a fugue, so it is unknown whether or not it could create counterpoint. | ||
