On a Roll...

As some of you are Bruce Campbell fans, I thought you'd like to know he did an AMA on Reddit.

The Problem with IMGUR

is that you never which one to share. This one, however, was too difficult to pass up!

No Time

Ok, so I'm really stressed out because I have a big presentation tomorrow and I'm not ready. Which explains my presence here.

Anyways, I thought you'd like this. It's by our very own Alex Trebek, but he obviously cares about us less than Woody does.

Nice

When Harry Met Sally 2 with Billy Crystal & Helen Mirren from Billy Crystal

Alejandro Jodorowsky interview

Its....

Space : a discussion.

Science is always reassuring.
You know, scientists give you answers for this and that, answers that you can trust, because of the scientific method and such. Its very reassuring. As long as you keep in the realms of the mid scale, not too far from or too close to the edges of infinity, stuff seems to be well understood and its a general confident feeling of knowing what to expect. Yeah, the earth is melting, but at least we know its happening. We know what to expect. In a way, its kind of soothing.



But when it comes to space, then the anguished and the scared have every reasons to shit slime. When the science guys tell you that 20% of the universe is made up of "ordinary matter" and the rest is filled up with "dark matter", it gives you an idea of how much of a clue we dont have about all of this. Dark matter : stuff of a nature that is not understood, stuff they're not even sure it even exists. 80%!!!




And then there's the big bang.
I hate this notion. I've always hated it.
13 750 000 000 years ago, this little ball of energy got tired of whizzing around in a great void and decided all of a sudden to go psssshhhBANG! and then a few micro seconds later the universe was born.
When you look at this explanation, you cant really hold it against the creationists, I mean, at least their ideas show a minimum of imagination.

One of the reasons they say the universe is that old is that when they point their ultra-hyper-telescopes in any direction in space, the further they can observe, the edge of the observable universe, is always 13.7 billion light years away.
Now to me, this doesnt support the Big Bang notion.

Let me try to explain why, and I wish one of you geeks could tell me what I'm missing.

When you look at something that's close to 13.7 billion light years away, you're basically looking at the big bang, or at the moments right after it. Now how can you look in any direction, and see young galaxies all over the fucking place, when the big bang is supposed to be a single point event!!!

apologies
