Because milk alone isn't quite disgusting enough.

This is kind of a niche device, but as a draftsman, I am big, big fan of lead holders. It's kind of like a cross between a regular, wooden pencil and a mechanical pencil. Better than both of them a thousand times over.

Ever since Pain and Gain, I'm ready to buy anything with The Rock in it.

Oops — hadn't checked that in awhile, but should have before commenting:

Dammit, why hasn't this ever gotten a DVD release?

That was bad enough, but when my chemistry teacher then showed that this theory also applied to the electron, my head imploded.

Exactly! Our "common sense" is based on living in a level of reality that's... synthetic. We may not be trapped in the Matrix, but our senses, and concepts like solid and empty, hot and cold, the notion that something can only be one thing at a time... Everything we know is based on living at a scale that filters out…

Anybody else get the impression that the Absorbing Man's rant is a direct quote from someone on the web?

Yeah, this was a big one for me as well. It was the first time I realized that the universe doesn't have to "make sense." That is, base reality can be weird in ways that we can only understand through mathematics.

I think it was more than the inherent delay of printing. At school, the science teacher's room had a hanging model of the atom, with balls representing hard particles. The standard texts reproduced this as well. This made for easier visualizations even if it was wrong.

Yep. Good one. Similarly, I remember all the models of atoms with discrete constituent particles, protons, neutrons, and electrons circling the nucleus like little planets revolving around the sun, an then trying to unlearn this picture and consider an alternative view of the atom and atomic forces.

I would watch a movie called Morena Baccarin Just Stands In A Room For 90 Minutes Looking Inhumanly Adorable.

Oh come on, any excuse to include Morena Baccarin in something is a good excuse.

Not just the Wolverine question, but how many children of either Scott or Jean are there in the present that were either never born or whatever? The 1.5 team? Everybody dies & gets better at least once? Time travel out the wazoo, Xavier's evolving origin, alternate/tangential timelines and the thousands of dangling…

one film (X-Men Origins: Wolverine) seems to be out of continuity

When Craig was first cast as Bond, some online commenters responded to the backlash with, "Watch L4yer Cake. It will sell you on Craig."

Right. THIS. L4yer Cake is my favorite Daniel Craig movie by a long shot. I always put it in the British Gangster flick category rather than Spy Movie, but there are are similarities between the genres, maybe?

Matthew Vaughn, you have to be nice to Daniel Craig. Considering you basically made his James Bond audition tape as your first movie. Which was AMAZING.

AHEM!
