Now don't quite me on this cause I'm reciting from memory In 9th grade I had this hardcore muslim-convert teacher. She would tell us all the time about how awesome Islam is and such, and what drew her in was the geometry of the mosques. The Muslims of yore saw beauty in geometry, and characteristically, almost every mosque is going to have intricate tile patterns similar to this. As I recall, they saw Allah in the geometry (in the same way that some people see god in math and physics)

FAG is a company that makes bearings. My uncle once did a contract for them and asked a 15-year-old me "hey, do you wanna come check out the fag plant?" Fun times.
