This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Wait, hol up
I don't think your math is right. That's 5x length and 4x width, not 20x length and width. If I was suddenly 20x bigger without changing my proportions, I doubt that would even be a facecloth to me.
…and 5*4=20, therefore, it’s 20x the total area, or 20x the size
If it was 20x the length and 20x the width, it'd be 400x the size.....
If your weight increased to 20x your current weight, without changing proportions, you would be about 2.7x your current height, width, and depth.
...just like OP's mum.
I was talking about size, not weight. But then you probably don't know much about size anyway. :p
You're overthinking. If you take 20 things and combine them, it's 20 times the size of one of them.
What if they're 20 Russian nesting doll pieces?
Those have never been proven to exist
