What's wrong with that?!? How can you look at the sun and not think of Maxwell's equations, see a fern and not consider the fractal that generated it, or behold the sky and not visualise cosmic particles decaying in a Feynman diagram? The world would be pretty bleak ... (as exemplified in the rather bare first picture).

Ok...I can agree to the Feynman diagram and the fern fractal - but Maxwell's equations are not what I see then.



I see Planck's law.

What are the odds?

I come home after work today, and find spots of poop over my pillow, all pointing at the open window. The window screen has a spot where a bird 'bombed' it.

What are the odds a bird pooped, for it to hit a small section of window, go through it, and land on my pillow? uck

Given the circumstances, I would say this calls for a ballistics investigation.

I don't know how to show a square root with a normal font.

If things fell up, would planets be spheres?

I'm not sure whether shmup fans are masochists or sadists.

All cakes are lies, but not all lies are cakes...or are they?

No such thing as up, but if gravity were reversed, I think they'd be a fine mist of fluff.

Shmup fans? Sadomasochists. Or in our case, lunatics.

Cheers to that, mate. :cheers:

Roughly the same odds as something perfectly normal and harmless happening to me, I'd guess. :shrug:

You and your newfangled technology! :rolleyes:

Of course, I could just use x^(1/2)...

Everyonce in a while, you'll hear extreme environmentalists advocate giving up civilization and returning to running naked through the forests for the sake of the environment. Right idea, wrong reasoning. The real reason to abandon civilization? Its dependence on bureaucracy. That said, I'm not sure if my urge to go running naked through the forests is the desire to return to a pre-bureaucratic primal state, or if it's simply a sign that my mind has snapped after my university, after all its harping on how E-mail is supposed to be the primary channel of communication between the university and its students, and how we should check our E-mail regularly, sent a *time critical* and *important* piece of communication across the Atlantic by bleeping :censored: [line noise] *SNAIL MAIL* (With a full one *month* delay). :uhh:

You can run through the woods naked if you'd like. I'll keep my warm showers and air-conditioned, insect-free bedroom, thank you very much.

Also, I would like to have a snowball's chance when the Big Asteroid is finally spotted some day. Worshipping the Lord of the Flies won't save you then; technology is your only hope.

You can have the best of both worlds and only run naked through the forest on weekends :dry:
