yeah... what a bringdown! haha jk

guess no one cares about big old rocks in the sky anymore lol...
*sings lucy in the sky with diamonds*

you are an ass. have you died before so is that why your talking about this. you need to get a LIFE thank you.

thats all he is doing. he needs a life of his own.

Wow, a science thread!! Here! Too bad it's about Earth being impacted by asteroids though. I pay attention to everything science but I don't bother to give much thought to the possibility of an impact because there isn't much to think about. It is all educated speculation until it is close enough to be sure it'll hit and then when it hits, we're fuckin' doomed. I prefer to contemplate my own close encounters with heavely bodies. Too bad that lately it is as likely as an asteroid impact...

Worrying about the Earth being hit by a sizeable meteor is like worrying about being raped by inbred hillbillies...it may be interesting to ponder but if it happens there ain't a whole lot you can do about it (except squeal like a pig).
Further, we're looking at a pretty large meteor to do worldwide damage.
The Tunguska one that exploded over Siberia in 1917 was thought to be about 60m across. Which is a pretty frickin big hunk o rock. It did do considerable damage but only to a limited(and thankfully unpopulated)area.

OK, I'm done nerding it up for now

well....the meteor that they theorized hit earth causing the extinction of the dinosaurs was under 1km wide if i remember correctly. 1.5 tops i think...been too long since i studied...havent been much into paleontology lately...*sad cuz it used to be my dream job*

well a 1.5 km meteor is roughly 20 times larger than the one over siberia, that's a helluva lot bigger.

still...its not that big in relative terms

relative is a realtive term

astronomically relative

what a great song byt the best band ever!

ey! what about pink?

as in pink the girl pink?

no as in pink floyd...idiot

well You kinda look like a Pink fan haha!

Pink Floyd was/is great but personally the Beatles are me choice

started with pink, will probably end with floyd....love em man...wall is the BEST rock opera ever made

may god strike me down but I dont really like their stuff. WALL is musically great but it just doesnt appeal to me

lol not going to fault you for it..everyone has their own musical choices..i dont like some things that other worship! *like christian music*

now isnt that an oxymoron?

no...i dont think so..just stupid wording lol

no I meant christian music... its an oxymoron!

oh...*shrug* lol

it now makes sense yeah?

Pink Floyd and the Beatles are indeed both great, but are they rock big enough to destroy the Earth?

no, only the Stones are(were). But they are getting so old, that these days they would disintigrate in the upper atmosphere. Except for Keith Richard's liver. That would annihilate an entire continent. When Keith dies they are lining the shuttle's underside with his liver.

and use his lips for the parachutes

you're thinking of Mick

oops...4 hours of sleep....got a call at 5 am with a friend asking me to take her to the hospital this morning...and why the hell is my armageddon thread been taken over by my moooosic thread? RIGHT POSTS FOR RIGHT THREAD PEOPLE!!

I don't think any thread stays on topic beyond 1 page unless it has to do with breasts.

Plus, this thread is actually past 2 pages, who woulda thunk that?

its on what...3?

NO... but if not for the beatles and to a lesser extent Pink Floyd, we wouldn't be listening to the music we are listening to today!

and if they never listened to Muddy Waters, they wouldnt have made the music they did, and if Muddy didn't listen to Charlie Patton he wouldn't have made the music he did and..........

too true my friend!

Thank god for mozart and bach!

and that monkey who banged 2 rocks together

lol.....so much for the end of the world as we know it...

and the cavemen and women!

But it was the monkey first. Unless you are one of those creationists.

wut bout that big T-Rex who fell and made the rockslide?

im a creationist

@naraz: good point, T-Rex were rockers!

@bondi: *quietly makes shush sound and whispers conspiratorially "Don't say that aloud! People will know!"*

lol @ black, forgot they were a band for a moment
im both @ bondi. figure theres truth to both of the stories, just gotta figure out what it is

what... that god created monkeys that evolved into humans? haha

How come there are still monkeys?

lol..... me and my girlfriend smoked a cannon the other day and were asking that very question!!!

Oxymoron - what idiots use to keep zits off their face....

Ba doom doom

Which god I wonder?

And by that reasoning, there should be nothing but humans. Anthropocentric as we tend to be.

I could answer these questions in my nerdy wisdom if anyone cares to listen (which is probably no haha)
but Black13 is pretty much bang on with the anthropocentric remark.

How sad that that should be the only thing I'm banging on lately.

And I'd like to hear (read) your take on whatever you feel like talking about. It is good to hear what others think. I'm all too aware that mine is not the only perspective. Just the only one that matters!

I had to edit because I forgot to say that my take on evolution is not that we came from monkeys or apes or whatever but that we came from the same thing as they did. And if you go back far enough, all the creatures came from the first form of life that arose. That is what the available evidence tells me.

Lets talk about tits!!!!

Monkey tits!? Dude, you're weird!
