Awesome gif, DD! I love the binary star with one blue-one red. ^^ And people used to think the sun went round the earth. XD

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

If the sun went round the Earth would there be gravity? And 1 Day would be don't know days long lol.Having more than a day for a day.I can't imagine it.

[Dark_Phantom_89]

Wow, that .gif really puts it all into perspective - truly amazing stuff. Just goes to show how small we really are.

[Woopzilla]

Comparisons like that are always interesting to watch. I remember watching a few videos similar to that (though they usually skipped to VY Canis Majoris within a few examples).

The actual distances between all these objects still fascinates me most, and to think that we can't even see the entire universe: Observable Universe.

I could spend ages reading about it all.

@Feisar: Yes, there would be gravity and it would still be 24 hours to a day since the earth spins about its own axis to make a day (not how fast either rotates around the other... that would be years). ^^ But it would get more confusing if they believed (and if they were right) that the earth was stationary with only the sun moving. Then the sun would have to be zooming round us at an incredible speed. O_o

And then it would get even better if the earth was believed to be flat. ^^

i like the comparison between our sun and that VY canis majoris thats just a mind boggling size.

the universe is such a wierd near fantastical thing. just crazy to think theres sooo much out there

Might be, I saw it on Mock the Week.

By the Way, you should look on Youube fo rthat, FEISAR. If you're into Satire, you'll love it.

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

Is it some game show with celebrities giving random answers to random questions? When I was in London in June,I saw this show titled "Have I Got News For You" and "Have I got More News For You.

Quick question about fan fiction:Will I get banned if I post fan fiction with the KKK as villains?

[Dark_Phantom_89]

It's sort of like that Feisar, but it isn't a game show. More of a comical take on the weeks news.

[mdhay]

No, you won't do, and it's a bit like those, yeah. But better!

[Woopzilla]

Talking about comedy and news... Sarah Palin called North Korea an ally of the US: Link

And she wants to grab the presidency in 2012, oh dear...

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

No, you won't do, and it's a bit like those, yeah. But better!

Huh? Which question was that the answer to?Reference to :If this is the answer, what is the question?

Mr White Supremacist David Duke is planning on Presidency.I'd rather not talk about him.
And to set facts straight,US=/=Ally of North Korea

[Dark_Phantom_89]

That is an extraordinary gaffe. I'd be very worried handing the presidency over to her based on that remark.

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

So who else is fighting for presidency? Other than Sarah Palin.
Anyone want to discuss the recent shelling of South Korea or is this already part of the discussion?
And I still haven't got my answer to my Quick Question. On another Forum(Non-WipEout Related.Digimon Related)I can post my fan fiction. I plan on posting that exact same fan fiction(after some refinements)

[mdhay]

It was an answer to both; you won't get banned and MTW is better.

Politics is a waste of time, it seems that someone who wasn't one would do better.

[Nutcase:259]

F.E.I.S.A.R. i guess if its in context and makes sense then i guess its allowed.


Thats probably what brought about the Sarah Palin North Korea Gaffe.
there shelling the border because the US are doing training exercises with the south isnt that it? also maybe because the north supposedly is gearing up to change leaders so its sort of like a show of force

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

Thing is,it's a mix of the video game series members here ALL like,Digimon,and quite a lot of other stuff that would just make everything nonsense,like characters having the ability to transform and other whatnot.And in the Fan Fiction,I'm almost equating them(KKK) to terrorists.Wait...they are...And I'm bundling them with that most common group whose lead OBL(osama bin haydn,it is not you)is status unknown.Why group them together? Their supremacists
And MTW is very hillarious! But why are they segmented?I keep seeing clips of a few minutes every time.

[mdhay]

Because the BBC doesn't want a full program on YT.

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

So questions like Things you don't want to hear from your flatmate and Unlikely things to read on a packet may come one after another in an episode?
Politics+Racing Game=
Maybe I should write bullcrap bashing some people(don't worry,the "some people" will never come here because of their narrow-mindedness)

[mdhay]

Yeah, pretty much. You can tell by what they're wearing.

You could write pretty much anything, JK Rowling does.

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

I wonder what Rob's stance on text-based games on the forum are. On the other forum I'm on,there are games like "Crack Pairings","Write a Letter to Your Favourite Character","Meetings between Characters",and "What would you say?"
I suppose Rob will just disregard this post
