It is better to have people think you're dumb, than to type nothing and remove all doubt.

Bob · «Reply #8953 on: January 03, 2019, 05:37:51 PM »

?

Wait...

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8954 on: January 06, 2019, 12:47:22 AM »

It was a nice try at playing Compline, but you're competing against the best here...

...as well as Bob and Outin.

Bob · «Reply #8955 on: January 06, 2019, 03:16:56 AM »

How about a little of this?

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8956 on: January 06, 2019, 02:30:57 PM »

Is it legal to shoot annoying people who thrust their awful 4-beat-repetitive harmonies against your will, if you're trapped on the train with them???

When most people ask me what's wrong with music these days...

...this is the answer - the complete and truly perfect example of what's wrong with music these days.

Bob · «Reply #8957 on: January 07, 2019, 01:29:15 AM »

I could only take part of the beginning and then skipped to the end.

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8958 on: January 07, 2019, 04:24:26 AM »

I listened to the first 7 seconds of it, then stuck a screwdriver through my ears to block out the pain.

Bob · «Reply #8959 on: January 08, 2019, 10:08:33 AM »

Ugh.... I should have known not to google "ear clean music" while eating. I thought the music part would get better results.

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8960 on: January 08, 2019, 10:59:26 AM »

If there's one thing Google can do - is take a seemingly innocent phrase and turn it into something perverse.

Also, if you find the results a little bit too sordid for your taste - it means you're still sane.. or possibly naive.

Bob · «Reply #8961 on: January 09, 2019, 12:03:36 AM »

So you were talking about your win....

Give up Bob - you know you can't win.

You need to break the rules a little more:

Bob · «Reply #8968 on: January 12, 2019, 07:21:01 AM »

And then an ocean sunfish swam by. Randomly.

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8969 on: January 13, 2019, 03:53:15 AM »

And then a random shark swam by... randomly...

...and ate the sunfish.

...and then won the thread.

Bob · «Reply #8970 on: January 13, 2019, 12:09:48 PM »

There's still something about that shark's eye, even though it looks fake....

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8971 on: January 14, 2019, 12:03:56 AM »

I'd be more worried about his teeth.

Bob · «Reply #8972 on: January 14, 2019, 12:19:42 AM »

After enlightenment on the other thread.

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8973 on: January 14, 2019, 02:19:59 PM »

And there's a black hole... goodbye enlightenment.

outin · «Reply #8974 on: January 14, 2019, 05:46:42 PM »

I'll buy you a ticket to the black hole in the center of our galaxy. You can always win when you return, right?

Bob · «Reply #8975 on: January 14, 2019, 06:13:11 PM »

I see the ticket, but the person seems to have disappeared....

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8976 on: January 14, 2019, 11:18:55 PM »

Here he is... just moments before the event horizon.

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8978 on: January 15, 2019, 11:27:55 AM »

Yeah... this would be terrifying to see from space:

outin · «Reply #8979 on: January 15, 2019, 03:40:54 PM »

I would be much happier to see it from space than on the planet in question

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8980 on: January 15, 2019, 09:41:09 PM »

I don't think it would look like that. I think it would be more gradual in some way. Not that this pic is much better. I don't think a black hole would spew anything out while it's eating a planet.

Maybe a bit more like this even though this is supposed to be a star. I would think the planet getting sucked in would heat up overall with everything being shifted and deformed a little.

They can radiate though, so best to keep your helmet on...

Yeah - and maybe some UV 50000+ skin cream - just in case.

Bob · «Reply #8984 on: January 17, 2019, 11:40:44 PM »

What would it take to withstand something like that? That amount of heat and that amount of gravity/stretching?

perfect_pitch · «Reply #8985 on: January 17, 2019, 11:55:51 PM »

I suspect you'd literally need to be suspended in a vacuum in order for it not to take effect? But then you need oxygen, so goodness knows.

Bob · «Reply #8986 on: January 20, 2019, 03:44:47 PM »

The Sun's 5,778 K / 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million degrees Celsius) from a quick google search. I tried searching a little for what temperature a vehicle that actually exists could withstand but that was too generic for searching. I gave up though. I doubt there's anything in that direction or we'd have heard about it. They'd have something that could sit on lava that would be in use.

For a blackhole (or the Sun), there's gravity. I thought or pictured things being ripped down to atoms or more when they go into a black hole.

Here's something -- 3.83 million miles from the Sun.
https://science.howstuffworks.com/how-close-can-get-to-sun.htm
"The sun's surface temperature is a stifling 10,340 degrees Fahrenheit (5,726 degrees Celsius). Curiously though, the area that surrounds the sun is even hotter."
"the corona is liable to be 300 times hotter than the surface. "

And there's radiation too I guess.

My solution? I'd just warp space so you're "there" but not affected by any of that. Yeah, that's what I do. Just warp space a bit and make a bubble.

Oh, that's just a bit more than a regular Finnish sauna...I'd enjoy the heat and then hop through my wormhole to cool down on an ice planet

Very philosophical! This may be the secret to life: "Just warp space so you're "there". As long as you don't warp too much.

I shall now warp space so I am "there": I win and this is FINAL!

(or is this too much?)

3 days... I had the win for 3 days straight.

You just couldn't let me win, could you???

Bob · «Reply #8992 on: January 21, 2019, 12:12:57 AM »

This place dies down on the weekends. Weekend time here isn't the same as weekday time. If you win during the weekDAYs... well, that's a little something more than those plain weekENDs.... Anyone can win during the weekends... Unless it's me and then it really is a big deal....

You can try to beat me, but ultimately you know:

I bought that little lapel just for you Bob.

I don't believe that - my astrologer tells me things are going to be better tomorrow.

Well, they say it takes 42 muscles to smile, but only 4 to extend the middle finger to the world around you.

Plus, it's good exercise for finger 3.
