I'm watching cloverfield.. it's pretty good everyone should watch it! And has anybody seen paranormal activity 3? I'm going tomorrow and it better be good! One and two were awful, not scary at all..

I can't really remember going to see Cloverfield, but I think I thought it was too short and had a poor ending.

Paranormal Activity is supposed to be scary, according to Facebook anyway.

Never seen cloverfield :P
Paranormal activity 1 & 2 scared the **** out of me 0_o though that being said I watched both of them last Halloween at like 4am with my friends after a party... was so freaked out I refused to leave the sitting room so we all slept there XD

Cloverfield is good so far.. But I'm yet to see a movie that will make me **** my pants and not be able to sleep, and I want to see that

Try watching The Ring when you're ten.

Gave me nightmares for ages. :eek:

Haha, the ring.. I remember thinking scary movie was the actual version of the ring... So naive..

Then I really did see the ring.. Wow did reality give me a smack across the face

Starting my diet tomorrow, for good. Actually, I'm going to do a 24 hour fast tomorrow starting at 2PM.

This was on last night during RTE news

The Shining is pretty awesome, very eerie.

My mind is blown.
In theory, if you add up all the numbers to infinity you end up with -1 :O

What type of a theory is that?

Oh, and you can't add up all the numbers to infinity because we don't know what they are. It never stops?

Thats why its a theory :L

The neutrino theory is way more interesting, as it has a direct effect on the meaning of our lives... The neutrino being that particle thought to travel faster than light itself. It was all over the news.

If that theory is correct:

If someone is standing at the point where the neutrino stops moving, and you send them a text message from Earth, they will get that message before you press the send button. Which...is...mind bending.

Of course, there are several complexities involved, so don't bother looking for a used DeLorean in the AutoTrader.

(if you understand that thing about DeLoreans then props to you good sir)

Ah yeah I read about that neutrino thingy

If you go by that theory too, you can make an invisibility cape like the one in Harry Potter. Which excites me greatly :pac:

Back to the future?

Another thing: Maths is technically a theory anyway if you think about it, so, while it may seem strange, it has no real practical benefit.

"1 * x=x"

This is what that dude said, and according to conventional maths theory, that is a fundamental flaw... He made up his own rule so how could it be true?

That's impossible.

So was alot of things.
Im sure 100 years ago the concept of having half the things we have now was crazy, and this neutrino theory that scientists are coming up with might proove that theres a 4th dimension.

SUBATOMIC particles have broken the universe's fundamental speed limit, or so it was reported last week. The speed of light is the ultimate limit on travel in the universe, and the basis for Einstein's special theory of relativity, so if the finding stands up to scrutiny, does it spell the end for physics as we know it? The reality is less simplistic and far more interesting.

"People were saying this means Einstein is wrong," says physicist Heinrich Päs of the Technical University of Dortmund in Germany. "But that's not really correct."

Instead, the result could be the first evidence for a reality built out of extra dimensions.

You can kind of take that two way,
1 times something, i.e 1 x -3/4, is still -3/4, but there are some times when this wont be the case, but if you take it too mean that one of something, like one unit of something, then you are still talking about the same amount of that thing.
It makes more sense in my head.. :L

Of course it is in a real life situation, as we can't travel that far into the universe... But its a theory. It's possible... In theory, you see, not in practice.

Using that logic, we can do other amazing things in the future.

Bear in mind the speed of a neutrino still has to be proven, and the theory is at a very "prototype" phase, but you can expect new discoveries to be made regarding this very soon.

If it is true, most discoveries physics will be thrown out the window and re-written, as science has, up until recently, assumed light=fastest known thing, using that as a point of reference.

I know, what I mean is that if the NeuTheory is true, it might mean an infinity of parallell universes.

Because the alternate universes would be in this fourth dimension.

...And so some equally monstrous dictator takes his place, and another rebellion will occur because the public think they can have their own way all the time.

Those rebels were every bit as cold blooded as Gadaffi...Pulling him out of a bloody hole and killing him in cold blood? And the media applauds this? Ha!

I hope a decent leader comes to power, but I'm skeptical of that.

^^^ Not a rant btw xD

SChique00

PLEASE STOP TALKING MATHS/POLITICS/BORING SHIZZ IN GENERAL!!!!! *pants*.... just thought i'd put that out there - i preferred it when ye were talking about movies

They sodomized him while they were at it.
