I am old(ish). So I have been reading about the Higgs for most of my adult life. In the lead up to the LHC, I would read article after article about the Higgs, which mostly went over the same territory over and over again. And yet I would still read the articles, in hopes for one new little piece of information about…

LOL I Know right?

Why would you check in ANYwhere, is my question. George Orwell had the right idea but the wrong execution: we don;t need to be watched by Big Brother, we're check in voluntarily.

I'm going to go back to college and get into physics, just so I can create a new element and piss everyone off by naming it Unobtainium .

I was sort of with you, until I saw these new clips. This seems like a return to the burton I love best (i.e., not the one who did Alice in Blunderland)

Apple Fanboys, bleh. Samsung has been making a better shank for years.

I would think that any creature that made its living scampering around in the wee branches of trees would by necessity be able to survive a fall from great heights. I mean I know they're good at leaping from branch to branch, but probability dictates that virtually ALL squirrels will miss at least a few times in their…

LOL well played sir. I did not know Atom from Adam either, or Ant Man from Adam or Atom. I learned something today!

I'm not sure whether that gives me hope (especially since at one time I think it was rumored they were going to doing a Magneto spinoff) or depresses me even more because wolverine can get his own franchise and Magneto can't. Not that Wolverine doesn't rate his own spinoff, he's cool...but Erik Lensherr: Nazi Hunter…

I would watch the sh*t out of that movie! Which is why we're getting a reboot of the Mummy franchise instead (unrelated, I know, I'm just upset that movies I would love to see won't ever see the light of day, but they have the time and money to reboot "the Mummy"). Grumble grumble

Seriously, that would fit in my office just fine

ROTFMAO

What's a CRT?

A year ago, I did not know Ant Man from Adam, but the obvious enthuiasm of his fans was kindof catching. But at the same time, I was like, "Ant Man?!"

That was implied. Look, I appreciate your viewpoint, but you can't possibly know what happens after you die. Also, if you read my post again you'll see that I include that possibility, although I have seen enough to personally think something's up, it could just be just an artifact of consciousness, or a bug in the…

Well like I said, we'll all find out somewhere between 60 seconds and 90 years from now

Same way those snakes were able to slither all the way across 6 continents, even though they were separated by massive bodies of water. Magic!

Of course if the Earth did actually slow down, and relatively quickly (not a human, not geologic timescale) the inertia that all that water had would be something else.

I know where you're coming from, but here is why I must respectfully disagree. First, I believe that people experience NDEs based on their own culture because either A) the experience is so profoundly extra-human that when the consciousness returns to the body the experience is assimilated in the only way a limited…

Now that's the bong I want, right there. I can't believe I never thought of it before. Actually I guess it old have to be some kind of vaporizer system, I'm comfortable with that.
