Time Waits for Just About Anyone

Subatomic Neutrino Tracks

The bartender says, “We don’t serve tachyons here.” A tachyon walks into a bar. Physicists have discovered either how to accelerate time in the environment as it relates to an observer, or pull information in from relativistically future-initial sources, as… Read more…

Whatever Floats Your Boat

Bible

Ctrl + F > “sin” > Replace with > “turn on.” ∴ Transgressions against God are a turn on. Unfortunately, turn on(90) = 1.

Dividual Hypothesis

Vintage Surgical Instruments

If a person was cut into little pieces, could the person then collect multiple disability checks? Say, for example, I got cut in half and both halves survived thanks to resuscitation. Would I get two payouts, one for each half?… Read more…

Reap What You Know (NSFW)

Cheetos Girl

What are the numbers for the monthly Cheeto harvest? Have we run out of styrofoam waste product yet? If we’re low on powdered cheese it’s not the end of the world. Just send out the nanobots to harvest it from… Read more…

Infixed It!

Quotation Marks

Infixing is the term for the insertion of semantic morphemes within words, with, “Fanfuckingtastic,” “Absofuckinglutely,” and, “Unfuckingbelievable,” being three of the only instances of this rare phenomenon that have been documented in the English language. When dealing with multiple versions of a story, as being related… Read more…

Charybdal Stone/Dissociative Disorder

Victorian Mirror

Which is harder to deal with?  “Doesn’t look like it’s you, but it’s you.”  “Looks like it’s you, but it isn’t you.”

Inherent Virtue

Dog Chasing Tail

In his dialogue with Laches, Socrates attempts to overcome a pedagogical dillema. He is asked by a friend to train a student in the finer points of virtue. But can someone really teach another person to be virtuous? Socrates makes… Read more…

Geometry is Flippin’ Sweet

Napoleon Dynamite

Using necessity and universality to explain the physical world can be problematic.  Universality is founded on an individual’s experiences over multiple instances.  For example, a naturalist may observe a colony of squirrels on multiple occasions.  Each time the squirrels are… Read more…

Irrational Numbers Are Stupid and Do Not Exist

Psycho

In this post, I will be making the claim that all numbers are rational. Please excuse the math, and try to follow along if you can. Without further ado, let us examine this idea further. 1 is rational. .5 is… Read more…

Principal Motivation

Sir Isaac Newton

What if Newton’s Laws of Motion are sociologically derived arguments and not physical ones? Throw away all arguments of initial causes or creators; God wasn’t invited to this party. Each of the Newtonian laws is directly relatable to interpersonal interactions. As people, we often rely on what we deal… Read more…

Quoth the Raven, …

Edgar Allan Poe – The Raven

If 90% of the internet went unhosted, or was replaced by dreck, would anyone notice? Just as you would never feel for thirst if faced with the loss of half an ocean of freshwater, the internet is so big that… Read more…

Oh, Green World…

Cedar Tree

I would like to take a moment to promote biodiversity in ecosystems and compassion towards all living creatures, because beauty in life comes only from nature. While humanity’s attempts at creating art can be said to be beautiful in a more subjective manner, the… Read more…

Meta Thought

Slug Bug

What if the human brain is not the true generator of all observable, incident intelligent actions, and instead, acts merely as a time-locked detector of collated multiple consciousnesses? I think this as the toes on my foot reflexively tense and… Read more…

Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me

Rolling Stones – Tongue

Recommending usage of the standard placeholder word “zerp” for when there’s a word on the tip of your tongue that you can’t remember and are unwilling to slow the conversation to await the recollection of, in order to avoid long-winded… Read more…

A Mathematical Deconstruction of Friendship

Venn Diagram

You: (A), me: (B), us: (A) ∪ (B), we: ((A) = (B)) & ((A) ∪ (B)), it’s getting weird: (((A) = (B)) & ((B) = (A))) & ((A) ∪ (B)), fate to be determined: (((A) = (B)) & ((B) = (A))) & (((A) ∪ (B))… Read more…
