One particularly charred giraffe, Professor Ignis Neckstretch, argues that surrealists must exist because “one painted me, and here I am, on fire!” His opponent, the esteemed Doctor Smouldering Spots, counters: “But if surrealists exist, why do they insist on making everything so incomprehensible? Surely a real entity wouldn’t spend its time gluing lobster claws to telephones!”
From the shadows, a Dalek in a Salvador Dalí moustache interjects, “EXTERMINATE... THE FALSE DICHOTOMY!” before getting distracted by its own reflection, which appears to be melting into a pool of liquid cheese.
Meanwhile, René Magritte's ghost floats by and mutters, "Ceci n'est pas une existence."
The debate continues indefinitely, as the giraffes are immortal—or at least, as long as the paint on the canvas holds.
