The Stellated icosahedron and the Giant

There was a stellated icosahedron that was a right slob. Soon she was so swamped in mess that you could hardly even tell if she was a sphere under it all. A forgetful giant, spotting her final visible spike, thought 'that's just what I need for my fridge!' and picked the icosahedron up. Soon she was happily embedded in the fridge door, holding all the giant's bills, shopping lists and reminders in place. The giant's kitchen was so big the icosahedron couldn't fill it with mess no matter how hard it tried. Oh happy icosahedron!

Moral:

Sloth and forgetfulness may be bad, but together they can achieve something or other. I forget what.
