at the end of the day, circles always win

Circle's: v.curvy, v.efficent. Pre-cursor of sphere, which has the most fabulous consonant collection.

I like squares with rounded edges!

And anyway, triangles, I choose you!

You can do much more with a circle.

Oops. I thought I was cleverer than the html checker (I thought it was just a question of acceptable whitespace and I was trying to stop linebreaks, though I suspect I don't need to do that any more anyway). I am, unsurprisingly enough, not. Laugh at me. Sniffle.

Bicycles,cars,tractors,trucks all would be useless if the fabulous circle didn't exist. So circle.

hmmm wheels ARE cool...

ahh but the circle is the subject of way more crap New Age metaphors

and its not square's fault that the laws of physics favor the circle!!

there's sad story about a cubical planet whose sharp, elegant corners were slowly, brutally rounded off by the blind force of gravitation.

the square: an inspiring symbol in Man's doomed struggle against the cruel, arbitrary laws of a dying Universe.

*steps off podium*
