RE: GREAT RESULTS AND SOME DISAPPOINTMENTS

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

Oh wow, new vocabulary!

I always thought "Steem" was meant to be a play on "Steam" with how the logo looks. Something like "Esteem" without the E.

Doesn't matter really though. As good old Willy Shakespeare says, even if you don't call it a rose it still smells good.

Edit: Just saw that steem in this sense is based on the word esteem. While this is neat, I must say I'm even more confused about the name and it's relationship to the steamy looking logo.

Sort:  

So if Larimer the Younger did not back into the name as such, and intended the Steemit logo to be a reflection of Cees, then it would follow:

that a living flame of flickering written content ...

would exist to gleam reflections of thought ...


of the writer, the reader, and hopes of new birth through discourse

... aside.. Kids.. what does Steeming it mean to you ? :)

Also:
LOL we were obsolete b4 we began.. tis the way of educational institutions - well according to current administrations :/

I am with you. Results matter. Long-term ones especially. So if our minds lend to steam power of hot air causing us to rise to the top with only the word steem to have been a spark from long ago, so be it. More of us certainly need the sauna experience from the aching muscles and tight hips that our masters, the Chairs, have so cynically endowed upon us, all in an effort to keep their cushion tops warm.
