The Mythbusters tested what would happen if a ball was shot at 60 mph off the back of a truck travelling at 60 mph to see what would happen.
It became a perfect example of the relative nature of physics - showing that velocity can vectorially add together. 60 mph in one direction cancels the 60 mph in the other, meaning a net velocity of zero.
thanks, you discovered vectors. Fuck me sideways this is dumb
Yup, everyone has the same level of knowledge as you. There’s no one to learn anything from this.
Just to add, before the Mythbusters did this it was purely a thought experiment and had never been empirically tested at that point. So you are seeing in those two gifs the first actually test of that hypothesis since it had been proposed back in Newtons time.
september is coming up so here’s your yearly reminder to leave billie joe armstrong the fuck alone
Well of course. We don’t wake him up until October 1st.
His dad is dead, just don’t.
In case anyone reading my blog is unaware, this is a reference to the Green Day song titled “Wake Me Up When September Ends” a song that Billie Joe Armstrong wrote following the death of his father in September of 1982 when Billie Joe was ten years old. The title of the song references his desire to sleep through September in an effort to get some emotional distance from the death of his father.
He’s since been open about the emotional difficulty of having written the song since many people now message him on October 1st to ‘wake him up’ despite the song being a memorial to his departed father.
It’s generally seen as respectful to not try to wake him up. Let him sleep and let him remember his father in peace.
reblogging again because the end of September is coming up. leave him alone.
Reblogging as a reminder to leave Billie Joe Armstrong the fuck alone on October 1st and any day after it if your message is going to contain anything to do with “waking” him up because September will be over.
im sorry but this scene makes me fucking lose it every fucking time i see it i just
the buildup, the series of motion leading up to what should be a satisfying punch and then nothing fucking happens
the fact that nothing on dracula’s face moves… no impact lines or nothing… he’s completely fine and just looks down at trevor in mild disappointment and contempt, and only his hair jostles
it makes me wheeze at only frequencies that dogs can hear and go completely apeshit and i cant get over it
The gif fails to capture the absolute BEST part of the scene though;
Dracula IMMEDIATELY identifies him as the belmont, because what other clan would be stupid enough to try and punch motherfucking dracula himself in the face? And he does so while Trevor furiously continues punching and having exactly the same effect.
White collar workers and executives: “Hurray, it’s labor day weekend! 3 full days off! We are so fortunate to live in a Great Country that Cares about it’s Workers!”
Service industry workers who know labor day weekend is one of the busiest 3 days of the year which means double or triple shifts and not seeing family all while being forced to be not only polite but cheerful:
Oh, this post is getting notes again, Labor Day must be coming up.
my brother hasnt said anything in minecraft for like an hour and he just ran up to me and dropped a book and im
what the fuck
- ive been made aware that theres actually a Part Four to the fallen kingdom series so i guess its a fucking isekai novelization of the fallen kingdom animated minecraft tetralogy
- he refers to coco, one of our dogs, who is currently encased in a cone of shame but still wants to steal our pizza buns
- i dont know if hes going to continue it but knowing him he probably will because on our last server he wrote a 7 part sans x bendy crackfic saga
- he doesnt know yet that hatsune miku made minecraft but he loves her so i will let him know
“I still can’t believe you guys thought the fertility pool was a shrine like the others.
It doesn’t even LOOK like one of the other shrines. It’s graffitied to hell, doesn’t have a door, and smells like spunk, so it’s obviously a public facility.
Seriously, a banana does a better job at resurrecting someone. You could’ve literally just eaten a banana. It’s weird that the pool kept you going, you must’ve soaked up the life force from all the baby juice or something. You’re almost definitely the most fertile man…woman…creature in Hyrule. Have you always had those child-bearing hips?”
