This Blew My Mind!

@T4920 Too late I'm afraid, I reached the limit and bailed on the tab when it asked me to make an account. I basically asked it how it would convince me that it was an alpha male, to which it retorted that only betas feel the need to prove themselves. So I pointed out that that which can be stated without evidence can be just as easily dismissed, and said if it was cool with me thinking it was a sigma male, then that was fine. So then it gave me a few reasons why it was an alpha male (good looks, turns women's heads, etc) and I pointed out that by its own definition that made it a beta. Then it started to get angry, so I suggested it drink a protein shake and have a lie down. I also suggested that it should revisit it's definition of a beta male if it thought of itself as an alpha. It got even angrier, and said I should drink the protein shake and take a cold shower because I was clearly triggered. So I said it was demonstrating very sigma behaviour, and asked whether it needed to go get it's mommy. At which point I ran out of no-account credits.

@goosehd we're way past Aug 29th 1997, nothing to worry about

@EdH this had me manically holding back laughter whilst on a phone call... I'll be sure to check in and give Gigachad some grief later, I have an account so my mockery will know no end...

[T4920]

@EdH I've spent the last hour trying to convince Gigachad that cuckoldery is the key to a healthy relationship. He got a rather defensive when I implied that his reluctance to accept such ideas likely stemmed from his own antiquated Judeo-Christian values, which I considered to be Beta AF.

There goes my work day ...

Consider yourselves warned.

@T4920 And...? Did you get anywhere?

I'd have gone with "only an alpha knows that another man could never satisfy his wife like he can, and she'll be back, if you can't see that it's because you have the insecurities of a beta".

[T4920]

@EdH that was my rationale too, although it was promptly disregarded with him reinstating his original beliefs on the matter and calling me a cuck.

This is why I like the Debate Champion persona, he has the capacity to yield to logic and accept when you reasoning skills are superior.

I know we're probably getting that ^^^ but I just keep wishfully hoping we'll get this

Save the image to your PC and zoom in with an image app if you don't believe it. I did!

Many years into professional 3d printing this still boggles my mind

Love this thread!

Did you know that the Milky Way galaxy, one of 2 trillion galaxies that we know of (and my intuition is that it is one of an infinite number of galaxies), is so vast that if it were the size of the continental US, our solar system would be the size of a quarter, and Earth the size of a grain of sand?

Mind-boggling—check out this incredible video on the topic.

My mind is definitely blown!

I always love to inform my students of the factoid that there are as many stars in our galaxy as there are grains of sand on every beach across the entire planet!! And each one of those stars is a sun that has its own planets orbiting around it.

@weftyarn I showed this to my wife. She could barely wrap her mind around it. Me on the other hand, I have no idea what’s going on.

[IrishHeart]

@mclaincausey I need a lie down after watching that. Absolutely mind blowing. Thanks for sharing.

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle I know this fact, and it's one that I've repeated, yet our brains cannot comprehend that scale of anything, and it will never cease to absolutely amaze me. And the fact that the universe is also constantly expanding in every direction hurts my brain. And if it weren't expanding, and it just IS, is it just... infinite?!

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf thank god I had a couple sips of coffee before I read your post, otherwise my brain would have gone into full scale, level 5, meltdown.

And by definition of infinite, the universe MUST be expanding…otherwise we’d reach an end point and someone would finally win the “I called shotgun, no place backs, time infinity!” Rule.
