So CERN is getting ready to fire up its Doomsday Device in August. How do you think the thriving underground world of doomsday cults is preparing for this, obviously, very relevant event?
Apparently, they're cooling the damn thing to just 1.9K. That's just over 2 degrees above absolute zero and about as cold as possible to achieve artificially.
They're then going to fire 2 beams of energized protons around the magnetic tunnel at close to light speeds for them to hit one another, where they will release cataclysmic amounts of energy. Basically they're recreating the big bang.
IT'S CALLED THE FREAKING BIG BANG PEOPLE, AND YOU WANT TO DO IT AGAIN?
And Switzerland? I mean dude, they're Swiss. If we attract the attention of aliens who come to invade, the Swiss'll probably go neutral and refuse to fight the little green men.
Apparently, some of the things they might create are:
Micro black holes: Apparently they would decay quickly and no do any harm. Because he have, obviously, been dealing with black holes for so long that we know all there is about them. Oh wait, no we haven't, we've only winessed them by their effect on other stellar bodies where they just suck everything up.
Strangelet: Little fuckers. Any matter they come into contact with, they turn into strange matter. One strangelet hits a nucleus, catalyzing its immediate conversion to strange matter. This liberates energy, producing a larger, more stable strangelet, which in turn hits another nucleus, catalyzing its conversion to strange matter. In the end, all the nuclei of all the atoms of Earth are converted, and Earth is reduced to a hot, large lump of strange matter. Sounds fun, yes? I've always wanted to be a lump of strage matter.
False vacuum: Some people think that we live in something called a false vacuum. I have no idea what that means, but apparently if a bubble of lower energy level were created it would obliterate the Earth instantly without any warning. Hypothetically, the LHC can create them.
Now I'm all for pushing the frontiers of science, but holy shit man. We don't know enough about all this strange physics to just go "let's make some strange matter! What'll happen after that? No idea. Let's find out!" followed by: kablooey. Except we won't be around to hear it.
It amuses me that we have developed enough understanding of the world that we know that the outcome of one of our experiments might obliterate the earth.
Sure it's highly unlikely. But what I don't get is what is highly unlikey when it comes to destroying the earth? So yes when you board a plane you know there's a 1 in a million chance that it will crash, but we can tolerate a plan crash every 10 or so years... I'm not sure we accommodate blowing up the earth every so many years?!
And DUDE what the hell? Your comment is like a post in it's own right? What are you implying? That my post was tiny?
Thing is dude, we have no freaking idea how unlikely it is or isn't. We just don't know. There really isn't much that can compare to this if the worst fear mongering is anywhere near true.
I'm prepping my intergalactic space ship now i case things get nasty...
No way man! Particle coliders have been in use for years.. it's true this one is uber-grand... but I'm sure they have some data from previous experiments... right?RIGHT?
great... now they want to blow the damn planet up...or have it sucked into a black hole... maybe it's better this way.
When I was a kid, i always wanted to go into a black hole in space, i had very elaborate fantasies about ending up on some interesting planet with loads of hot guys who all want me to be the queen, and discovering that i'm really from that other planet... but i digress...never mind my childhood... maybe it will take us somewhere more interesting. And, hey, we're all goin' together, the whole damn planet! we won't be alone and we'll have a blast...oops, no pun intended!
now, i find the stranglet theory most interesting, as it promises to preserve the planet, but to change its form... now that would be interesting to experience. we may actually survive and mutate into strange creatures, or turn into some other form of matter.
right, now, do you have room on the intergalactic space ship, cuz i may want to watch the planet's destruction from a distance, on tv or something...
ahhh... my childhood fantasies... i'll post them on my own blog, so, if you're interested, check it out from time to time (how's that for a promotional strategy for my blog?)
(sorry, but what is Fantasy island 7? I dont own a tv, so i'm a bit backward with anything entertainment-related)
or maybe i'll share more on the intergalactic trip, we'll probably spend a lot of quality time together, and bond as we watch earth blow up...
I'm sold man, I'll be your biggest fan, but you have to promise juicy fantasies.
Oh yeah the trip, and as you know, Munqy's driving skills are equivalent to that of a retarded beaver... so we're going to be stuck on that trip for a long..long...LONG time..
...and shame on you for not knowing one of the best known pornos out there...shame.
i bet it's a dumbass sci-fi show for kids or something and you are preying on my ignorance... i'm googling it right now... yep, seems like i'm right... na, I can definitely do better on my blog. stay tuned!
Ehm if you must know, I was busy dodging 10 days of vacation alone with the parents. I had to summon all the world's wizards, evil forces, pay a hefty hefty bribe and cross fingers frantically..
How about you let my 1 location in to the list? I'll trade it for a night with Megan Fox & 2 truck-loads of Haribo..
Oh mama! Harribo you say! *ahm*... I mean Megan Fox? FINE, fill-up an application and I'll see what I can do about it...
So... in a vain effort to steer the comments back to the subject of the post, had you been a doomsday cult leader, how you prepare for such a joyous occasion?
You'll all be getting copies of my itinerary so I don't keep missing interesting comments and arriving too late..
Fesh: I was at Diptychal's today, and movies came up. At one point she was like "the guy in Poland, the one we both know." in reference to a movie you recommended to her. And it took me quite a number of guesses until we got to Fesh :P :P :P
I totally blame it on the lead compounds I've been inhaling for the past 27 years.

I keel you.
Leetal post, leetal man...

SHOTGUN!
ReplyDeleteNo way man! Particle coliders have been in use for years.. it's true this one is uber-grand... but I'm sure they have some data from previous experiments... right?RIGHT?
Let's talk about it on the way to Betelgeuse, yes?
ReplyDeleteFine. But you'd better have a pool at your place in Betelgeuse... I haven't peed in days.
ReplyDeletegreat... now they want to blow the damn planet up...or have it sucked into a black hole... maybe it's better this way.

Oh, I like where this fantasy is going...(if it's anything like Fantasy Island 7).... so pls do share more :D
ReplyDelete...and I called shotgun, so you could get the backseat...
ahhh... my childhood fantasies... i'll post them on my own blog, so, if you're interested, check it out from time to time (how's that for a promotional strategy for my blog?)

i think munqy's head will explode before the earth does.
ReplyDeleteyeah right!
ReplyDeletei bet it's a dumbass sci-fi show for kids or something and you are preying on my ignorance... i'm googling it right now... yep, seems like i'm right... na, I can definitely do better on my blog. stay tuned!
Then damn it woman post! post!
ReplyDeletepity, i have to leave you all now, cuz i have a meeting :( (sigh) but i'll leave you in suspense, and to your own imagination!
ReplyDeleteBoooooooooo! Stay and play...
ReplyDeleteBah.. I'm late.. and not even fashionably late this time..
ReplyDeleteOooh.. Can I pick where the most damage lands? I've had this list of places I want bombed for years, and now sounds like a good time.
Who should I talk to in this case?
I'm sorry, put I've already flooded the request queue with a certain location that I will not disclose.
ReplyDeleteAnd where have you been man?! You missed the tiny post, the mega comment, the space ship and Fantasy Island 7 for GOD'S SAKE?!
Ehm if you must know, I was busy dodging 10 days of vacation alone with the parents. I had to summon all the world's wizards, evil forces, pay a hefty hefty bribe and cross fingers frantically..

ReplyDeleteSo... in a vain effort to steer the comments back to the subject of the post, had you been a doomsday cult leader, how you prepare for such a joyous occasion?
MEGAN FOX IS MINE, ALL MINE!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHey hey... can you focus on driving/flying?
ReplyDelete@ munqy: um, I hate to break the news to you, but I have the deed to Megan right here.. I can give it to whomever I want..
ReplyDeleteEmbee, do you want a place on my spaceship to Betelgeuse or not? I think that's just about a fair trade for Megan, right?
ReplyDeletemmmmmmmmmmmmmm... beetle-juice...
ReplyDeleteWindow-seat and I want refreshments during the trip to be served by Olivier Martinez.
ReplyDeleteYou got yourself one whole night with the lovely Ms Mikaela, Munqy
Incidentally, did you know she was on "Hope & Faith" too? :P
Should I be getting some sort of a commission since I'm pimping my blog for you guys to sort out your "deals"?
ReplyDeleteHow about a lap dance? I heard Olivier gave awesome lap dances..
ReplyDeleteThat would be suitable commission, no?
Fine. Give me the coupon.
ReplyDeletewow! this conversation is becoming increasingly interesting... olivier martinez giving lap dances certainly sounds good to me!
ReplyDeleteGet in line sister.
ReplyDeleteas in "get in line for your turn for olivier's lap dance"?
ReplyDeletehey, i thought you were interested in megan! olivier is for the girls!
*ahm*... yes, Megan... of course.
ReplyDeleteuh oh! seems like munqy is right about you after all!
ReplyDeleteYour allegations wont hold up in a court of law. You've got nothing.
ReplyDelete...and can someone pls entertain my latest witty post with a witty comment? :D
ReplyDeletehehehe... i have my own ways to prove it!
ReplyDeletewhat witty post? oh, you mean the one about sarkozy? i'll chk it out when i've got time!
ReplyDeleteI assure you all the photo evidence in Munqy's possession is Photoshoped.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah the one with Sarkozy about the Irish vote!
Dude, do you really want me to start with the whole picture thing again? You know the pics I have in my possesion, and I am not afraid to post them.
ReplyDeleteYou got it. No peeing in your pool, do we have a deal?
ReplyDeleteYou'll all be getting copies of my itinerary so I don't keep missing interesting comments and arriving too late..
ReplyDeleteFesh: I was at Diptychal's today, and movies came up. At one point she was like "the guy in Poland, the one we both know." in reference to a movie you recommended to her. And it took me quite a number of guesses until we got to Fesh :P :P :P
I totally blame it on the lead compounds I've been inhaling for the past 27 years.
Oh.... I can see how "the guy in Poland, the one we both know" could have been misleading(?).
ReplyDeleteMaybe if you used the correct technical term for Poland: The Frozen Wastelands?
