The Big Bang...

So here it is...Physicists announced Thursday that they now have the smoking gun that
shows the universe went through extremely rapid expansion in the
moments after the big bang, growing from the size of a marble to a
volume larger than all of observable space in less than a
trillion-trillionth of a second....

What do you say to that? The size of a fucking marble? That’s hot. I wish I had a universe in a jar. That would be cool. I'd be all, "YO don't make me big bang your ass!" and they would all "Big bang my ass? Dude, that’s gross" and I'd be all... "Whatever, I'll do it."

Speaking of Big Banging, apparently that’s exactly what physicists were doing when they were uncovering this whole cosmic truth thing. "Schrödinger, Curie, Einstein, Feynman, Oppenheimer…the finest names of pre-Cold War 20th-century physics, some of whom gave us the most concise theories ever posited, form a roster of lamentable philanderers. Albert Einstein was completely “given to flirtation” and had legions of affairs. Caltech professor and bestselling raconteur Richard Feynman was probably the only Nobel Prize winner to befriend porn stars, claim a foolproof manner for bedding women and do his calculations on napkins in strip clubs. And it wasn’t just the guys: Marie Curie was relentlessly hounded by the press for seducing away her late-husband’s former student from his wife and kids."

So here’s to the big bang, both cosmic and personal, may they be ever expanding, explosive and plentiful.
