Thread for obviously newsworthy stuff

[Lorizael]

Your mind is in the right place, but not your wisdom.

Unacceptable. Kneel and grovel.

[ZEE]

I do always. You should try it.

I must say, until now I thought scientists only cared about the true pursuit of the mind and unlocking the secrets of the universe. But now I see all they are is achievers who want to outdo each-other and get the biggest funding grants from the corporations in charge and get as much 'action' as possible based on their 'credentials.'

You are blasphemers in the path. I thank you for showing me this though, Lorizael. You helped me greatly in this.

[ZEE]

At least if I judge all scientists based on what I know about you.

[ZEE]

Well, you gonna reply boy, or just stand there and bleed in front of the lady.

Do me a favor, Lori, and put me back on your block list. Your arrogance and vanity... annoys me.

[ZEE]

See you in a few weeks Lori. I would tell you how to heal your pride, but frankly, I don't give a damn.

Kidicious, this thread is all yours. Sorry to interrupt you, sir.

[Lorizael]

Huh?

[ZEE]

Keep blowing.

I'm a schmuck with a bachelor's degree working on an underfunded, extremely unsexy data archiving project through NASA. Maybe the above ain't wrong, but you can't get there from here.

[ZEE]

Proving my point with affluence.

[ZEE]

"I only have a bachelors degree and work for NASA I am so depressed..."

It is at this moment, Lori, when you realize you may have tried to troll the wrong poster.

I may forgive you, however, if you just admit you were trolling.

[Lorizael]

Buddy, I'm only here ragging on BK's ****ty understanding of statistics. You have fun with whatever conversation you're having.

If I tell you there's a 1-in-3 chance that a d6 will come up 5+, and you roll the die and get a 5, was I wrong?

Yep. If you say there's a 70 percent chance of Hillary being elected and Trump ends up elected, you got it wrong.

[Uncle Sparky]

Just like that time in Civ2 the phalanx unit defeated the bomber... odds are just that.

[spambot]

Someone told me I only had a one in six chance of rolling doubles, and I did, they were so wrong!

(I was tempted to write an answer to Ben ... but successfully restisted ... much funnier to just sit and watch)
