MM: Various pieces of cloth and a shirt have been thrown into a corner of a room. I then proceeded to throw some pieces of rope at the heap from a close distance and repeated this procedure until, together with the creases in the rags, the strings formed a number. Together, the ropes throw the number 429 back at my head.
