| Nylar 06/14/2004 08:36:33PM | I was refering to entropy as one would to Murphys Law, Order turns into disorder. But some would believe disorder leads to order, and yeah... repeating what I said...
Hurray for reviving old topics! |
| Angel of Doom 06/14/2004 06:17:40AM | Quoting Chaos: Well, it all depends on how you define the understandment of entropy... Delta S, of a sample after is has gone through a reaction. If a sample ... as a practiced fool who never listens, i can successfully say that i didnt understand anything you just said. luckily, i just watched Johnny English, and i wonder about the state of international security if people like him are in charge. But wait... at least johnny saved England. what has Bush done recently, besides starting war? |
 +Chaos06/14/2004 05:58:51AM | Well, it all depends on how you define the understandment of entropy, and in what sense. Entropy is simply defined as disorder (of Chaos, if you will. har har.). In chemistry, entropy is derived from what state of matter a sample is in, solid, liquid, or gas. Gasses have the highest entropy, as their molecules are the most disorderly. In thermochem, it is standard practice to find the change in entropy, Delta S, of a sample after is has gone through a reaction. If a sample went from a gas to a solid (or any other change in the same direction along the Gas->Liquid->Solid chain), it is said to have a negative Delta S, or a reverse in entropy. |

Some would believe that time does indeed go in reverse, but because the human mind can't understand reverse entropy, we see things the way they are. So in other words, the past hasn't happened yet, but the future already did Some people would be afraid to question logic like that because when it's something that deep it makes you look like you don't get it when you say "that doesn't make any sense" but I'm going to go out on a limb and say, "That doesn't make any sense." |
| Nylar 06/13/2004 07:57:22AM | Quoting Suppo: people say that what can go in can go out... (well at least they do in France) so assuming that it works for everything, why can't time go back while it can go forward?

| Angel of Doom 08/21/2003 12:06:37PM | time for the old revival. i was just wondering if that idiot who tried to wage war(how he could do it online, i have no idea) was the guy named squee.
also, holy grail does have a cult following, except everyone in the cult thinks they are the only one. there other movies are less widely known, and i fear metioning them here, because the same thing might happen. |
| +Chaos 06/30/2003 07:53:48AM | Theres a little comic strip Jhonen Vasquez pupt into Squee #3 (i think) about that same subject. Basically it was about his idea to make a really crappy movie just to repulse people, but then people started liking it just because others didnt.
This kind of mentality is rampant in every form these days. On a related note, I watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail earlier today. That movie deserves the cult audience it has, because its so funny. Or at least I think so... |
| +Hyena 06/30/2003 03:31:39AM | Okay, here's a really long musing I had the other night. Ready?
I sometimes think that the most universal constant on the planet is that no matter how brilliant any creative genius is, and no matter how great their greatest creation, there will always be people who will take one glance at it and say it's stupid. Then I started thinking I wonder if it's possible in the other direction. If there's something you can create that is so awful, so terrible, that absolutely no one would like it. It sounds simple in theory. Making things bad is easy. Making something really terrible shouldn't be much harder. However, there's people (like me) who enjoy things that are really really bad because really stupid and awful things are funny. (http://www.badmovies.org) If I wrote and published a story and titled it "Story" and the entire story was "I walked into the living room and sat down" it would have a cult following. Finally, I've come to the conclusion that my suggestion is impossible. Even if I were to create something so terrible, I would probably feel a little gratified that people don't like it. It would mean I succeeded. And creating something that bad, as ironic as it sounds, is an accomplishment. So in some way, I would feel proud of it. So even if no one else liked it, I would. Heh. |

Is the plural for hippopotomus hippopotimii? Is the plural for fetus fetii? If Jesus cloned himself would it result in Jesii? Could you call a gay orgy a mass amount of penii? I use the word anii a lot. I don't know if it's a real word or if I invented it. Example: "Matrix Reloaded kicks a lot of anii" I think once I actually said a certain doom level "kicks the anii of everyone in the vicinity of the player into a collective anus heap" |

They sometimes call him Stan the Man. So that would be Stan the Man an' Anne Lee. |

WOuld this mean that some guy find a way to become, immortal? |
| Yuka Takeuchi Fan 04/25/2003 01:48:10AM | I've always been curious... Would it be possible for your body to age according to the amount of time you're going forward (if that's what I choose to do), or would I just be myself and potentially encounter a future or past me?
(And I wonder if I'd break down weeping upon sight of future me...) |
| +Chaos 04/20/2003 08:09:23AM | The only thing closest to time travel we will ever have would probably be cryogenic freezing. But this is kinda cheating since you're not actually manipulating anything, just sleeping for a really long time.
And as for your other question, I refer to the movie "The Time Machine" (the new one). The dude was in the same spot for millions of years, but no living being ever passed through that small space? My theory is that your molecules are moving so fast that nobody sees them and nobody feels them. Or, assuming that time is on a different plane of exsistence then space, you move along the folds of time while the rest of the world goes about its business. Wow, I just came up with that second one just this minute out of nowhere. I amaze myself sometimes. The rest of the time I realize what a failure I am. :) |
| +Hyena 04/20/2003 05:47:41AM | Wow, I never thought of that.
One thing I always thought about was what happened if you went back in time and arrived overlapping another object? Could your arm become permanently attached to some woman's head? Would her brain be destroyed? And would the movement in time be instantaneous, or would you quickly move backwards? If the latter, what happens if something moves in the way while you're time travelling? But I never thought about how the earth moves. I think I can now sleep safely knowing that no matter how much technology progresses, time travel will never happen. |
