EDIT: I GOT ANOTHER SHOE BOX!

What should I do with these two? ovO

Awesome! I recommend making a shoe-box fort. Just start collecting...  ovO

Omai, boxes.

We don't have much boxes here because we don't have space to store them. I can only hope to make a mini fort with shoe boxes when I get enough  :c

I fold most them. More space!

Also I found a lot of bubble wrap!  :3

Oh. Whatever wintery holiday where people receive lovely gifts, then. X3 Or maybe someone's birthday.

I dunno. In this family, we tend to use gift bags and reuse boxes a lot.

Paint it then put glitter all over it!  :D

Just found even more boxes :3

Cut out a picture of Madness, tape it on the box, then wear it as a hat. DUH. ovO

One problem, I think my shoe box can't withstand my weight  >A<

Buy a bunch of random tiny objects of one theme and use the shoe box as a container  :3 *has a shoe box behind her filled with ponies* Dooooooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit tis most wise thing in the world!

Actually I wouldn't be that sure about the infinite boxes. Soon you'll have boxes made of single atoms. And I guess after a few more iterations you'll end up with strings or something. I guess somewhere around that point you won't be able to get even smaller boxes. ;)

Okay, fine!

Assuming box width = about 20 cm (not length) = 0.2 m
Carbon atom radius = 77.2 pm (assuming carbon's the biggest common atom in there) -> diameter = 144.4 pm = 144.4 * 10^-12 m

Box width / atom diameter ~= 1.38 * 10^9

Log base 2 of that thing > 30

Therefore, you could divide the boxes 30 times and still have boxes larger than an atom. This means that you could have a total of 2^30 boxes = over a billion boxes. Still pretty impressive.

save it! then when the zombie apocolups starts you can eat it... or keep a small zombie in it

Sure - so I'm assuming that any time you have a shoebox, you can trade it away for two shoeboxes, each of which is half as large. So let's say you start with a normal-sized box, then you trade it and get two half-sized boxes - then you can trade each of those, so you end up with four quarter-sized boxes.

If you're not familiar with exponents, 2^(number) = multiply 2 by 2, and then by 2 again, etc. until you've done it (number) times. So:
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
2^3 = 2*2*2 = 8
2^4 = 2*2*2*2 = 16 etc.
Then you have logarithms, which are just reversed exponents; saying "log 16 = 4" means you have to divide 16 four times to get 2.

The number of boxes you have after (number) trades is just 2^(number), and the boxes you get are 2^(number) times smaller. Basically, I'm just seeing how many times I can divide the original shoebox's size by 2, without getting smaller than an atom. I used logarithms to find out how many times you can divide your boxes before they get too small, which is 30. So after 30 trades and divides, you have 2^30 tiny boxes, which is about a billion.

atoms = tiny particles that make up everything

box width about 20 centimeters = about 1/5 of a meter

assume the box's atoms are about 144 2/5 picometers (that's one trillionth of a meter- very small!) in diameter (largest length of a sphere)

so the width of the box divided by the diameter is about 1.39 billion atoms across!

how many times do you have to multiply by two to get that number if you start with two?  over thirty times!

Therefore, you could divide the boxes 30 times and still have boxes larger than an atom!  that's over a billion boxes!

You have two shoe boxes and don't know what to do with them. So you put your items in them. When you put your items in them, your brother eventually finds the shoe boxes. When your brother finds the shoe boxes, he takes the stuff away. When he takes the stuff away, you find out you put your homework in there. When you find out you have no homework, you tell your brother to give it back. When you tell your brother to give it back, he doesn't. When he doesn't, you get into a fight. When you get into a fight, your brother rips your homework. When he rips your homework, you cannot redo it. When you cannot redo it, you get a F. When you get a F, you fail the class. When you fail a class, your mom gets mad. When your mom gets mad, she grounds you for a month.
