gollark: I'd say it obviously depends on the picture. I mean, a blank white page is not very meaningful, but you can probably fit a few hundred words of *text* into an image, or describe a lot about a landscape or something.
gollark: The saying about pictures containing a thousand words is inaccurate.The average picture contains a large amount of information by many metrics, but a much *smaller* amount of it is actually meaningful and relevant to whatever you're doing with the picture.
gollark: Hmm. Well.
gollark: You mean rap *by* me, or rap *about* me?
gollark: 🇿
