"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)

That got weird at the end.

Pay attention and you'll see it got weird from the very start. The question "what's your favorite idea?" is bizarre, and the answer "mine is being creative" doesn't really make too much sense. Is it not odd that all three of them see the exact same thing, at the exact same time, in the clouds? By what reasoning can green be considered "not a creative color"? Also, the command to "arrange sticks and leaves into your favorite color" is completely insane. That they instantly managed to come up with a solution (spelling out the color) is even more insane.

I'm pretty sure you posted this video on TC already, like a long time ago.
Sometimes you get the scorpion.

I forgot that I'd seen this and that it terrified me.

I only saw it for the first time earlier this week. Must have been someone else.

Creativity leads to DEATH. Tell your children!
I think this warranted a repost anyway. I mean, I hadn't seen it.

Time to go to TIME!
(For the record, contrary to popular belief, there is no scientific consensus that time is "an illusion", any more than space is an illusion. Both are relative, but that relative nature is dependent on momentum and gravity only, and are relative in very specific and exact ways, whether there is someone to observe it or not. To put it another way, c, the constant of the speed of light, relies on the existence of both space and time to have any meaningful definition.)
