This is normally such a crowd-pleaser and solid routine to go to, too. That's a shame when you can't even get a couple cheap laughs about the potential deaths of millions, I swear.

the act of you sucking the poo poo out of my rear end in a top hat is merely a third the speed of light and yet it will never be enough to produce sexual satisfaction for either of us

The speed of light is roughly 186000 miles per second. You're off by a bit.

The speed of light can be changed, scientists brought light down to 37 miles per hour back in 1999, so I say that it was going more than 3000 times the speed of light. :colbert:

That's why it was so heavy.

Mildly upsetting to me is this thing I recently learned about called chronostasis:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronostasis

Basically that illusion that happens when you look at a clock for the first time and the second hand appears to hang briefly before moving regularly. If I understand it correctly it’s your brain backdating the memory of the hand before you can fully perceive it or something.

Weird to think about, for some reason. The brain’s ability to shortcut and fill in gaps is neat.

Good stuff. Glad to know a name for it. I experience this all the time, with analog and digital clocks. Timers too, like on a microwave.

:laffo: yeah. But if light were much slower, I'd have been right!

But nukes are powered by E=mc^2 so if c was lower the manhole cover would also have been going slower.

(and things like chemistry would be different)

Rosa Parks, in her lifetime was able to watch the episode of South Park in which Mel Gibson farted in Cartmans face

Jerry would have been right if miles were much larger or hours were much shorter.

Makes you think.
