What Does IV Stand For?

Day 904, 23:11 • Published in Ireland Ireland

• by Edana Savage

I can tell you what it doesn't stand for.

Boxes.

Yeah, I said it. Boxes. Fricken bane of my existence.

But I digress......... 😉

IV stands for:

Roman numeral 4
Intravenos
In Vitro
Ivy
Initialization Vector
Initial Value
Input Voltage
Interamente Versato
Instrumental Variable
Initial Velocity
Intra Vascular
Intrinsic Viscosity

All really interesting things, but none as interesting as this one:

INDEPENDENT VOICES

IV stands for the freedom to choose your own path whatever that may be. You want to follow the crowd? Go for it. You want to be a loner? Knock yourself out. You want to be Country President of Ireland? What are you waiting for? Do it. I'll be cheering you on.

The only rules? Respect each other and have each others' backs when it's go time.

Other than that, do whatever the hell you want. 😉

Here's a whole list of them:

I'd also like to add Inverse Vector to that (because I'm a nerd! lol)

I'm probably going to really annoy you now but, if you declare yourself as a firm box-hater, then doesn't that put you into a "box" of hating boxes! lol, think about it...

It's kinda like time travel. You don't want to think too hard about the implications or your head will explode.

IV has always held my respect, as they know.

When people say there is no differences between the parties, they are only looking at things superficially.

IV is different and that difference is important and needed.

Remember though, boxes do have their uses... just don't tape the lids shut.

People with no values always try to justify their independence by saying that people in other parties are 'limited' or 'in boxes'.

Sean Power Day 905, 08:45

"People with no values"
- the furtherence of rational discussion outside the constraints of strict ideology while reflecting personal values
=> sounds like a value to me 🙂 It's called enlightenment 😛

Nicely written! I think I'll keep dancing outside the box.

Edana Savage Day 905, 16:11

Awwa, Iain, if you weren't a Brit troll you could be IV too! 😉 How's Pakistan and the UK?

Well it is sometimes fun to get into the box and then bust out of it. I'll play in there for awhile, but usually I get bored with it and end up tearing it apart or burning it. lol It's inevitable.
