Makes you wonder if we're alone out here. Also makes you wonder if all that is just a big guess or not ........I mean how would they know half of that?

What was in the video was pretty well confirmed. Astronomers spend a lot of money building telescopes and a lot of time collecting data with them. There are a whole bunch of tricks for determining distance. Considering the brightness of stars is one way. For "close" objects in the galaxy, we can still use parallax, just like how your two eyes give depth perception. Also we know that the more distant an object, the more its emitted spectrum will be shifted (longer, i.e. redder) in frequency, so that method is used for very distant things.

(I know I'm probably answering a rhetorical question, but whatevs. I like talking about science.)

Fat Scientist picture was fucking hilarious. I laughed out loud pretty good when I saw that. I was expecting a slightly chubby picture, but instead I saw a biggest loser candidate.

Exactly. He kept saying how fat he was but we just assumed he was exaggerating so it wouldn't be so bad, but goddamn.

What's that called where you can't stop giggling at something? Shit I can't stop chuckling right now and I haven't thought about that picture in like 6 months.

Considering the vastness, one would think the law of large numbers would come into play. I think it would be silly to assume we're the only planet with life.

BTW, I also was not consulted on the pronunciation change of 'Uranus'. When did this happen? Even the dictionary says 'ˈyoŏrənəs'. I'll continue to say ur anus, sorry nerds.

Thanks, homey. I decided I was putting this betting shit on lockdown.

You've made quite the comeback yourself. You made lots of units really fast.

Yeah, UFC on Versus 4 with the Matt Brown bet/Charlie Brenneman bets things went real good.

I like baseball

I do too, but I get stupid and make big bets instead of sticking to my regular sized bets.

This forum has been running slow as shit the last day or so. Too slow to have a real time e-fight.

I was going to come in here and complain about that.

You haven't bothered me at all since you have been back. Actually it is nice to have another regular poster to keep things active... whenever there are no mma events, things tend to go downhill around here, we just completely devolve. It is not you, I am being serious, it happens all the time. I think I have attempted to fight with everyone on the board at some point. I know that I went after sbjj (which I deeply regret now because I was confusing him with a different poster but kept going anyway), and zY (don't remember why now, it was a while back), and SPX (but he started it). I guess I am just kind of an asshole when it comes down to it.

You never e-fought with me bby <3

Just move to Vegas and play for cash. No IRS, not internet crackdowns, and bonus- it is Vegas.

I was thinking about this. When I get older and make a real salary and stuff it would be cool to have a separate stash of money of like $10k+ to do what I am doing now...just not online.

Oh, by the way...I can't believe I missed 5 pages of entertainment in just one night of work.

I know what an IP and IP tracker are, I was just confused as to why you thought I needed one.

No you fucking did not!

Dude, I'm sitting here looking at that failed attempt to make a picture into a wallpaper(how does someone fuck that up since 1995 again?) and all I can think of is Fat Bastard saying "Ahhh Eat Bebehs"

It really is weird, why did you save that picture? You really are a creepy little asian aren't you. I feel trust was violated, prepare to be e-fought with, you cuddly little Dora bastard.
