Official stoner tangent thread

Death. What is the after life like?
I think it is just the same as what you felt before you were born.
NOTHING
 
To kick this back into stoner tangent territory, as opposed to "just plain wrong" territory.
I was lying on the floor listening to Crystal Method - Blowout (a tweaker track at the best of times) and feeling my mind float off towards the ceiling. But that's beside the point.
I was lying there and thinking that the ceiling light seemed to have altogether FAR too many characteristics of intelligence. It stays quiet, and it doesn't move around, and hence, it has to do nothing! I WANNA BE A CEILING LIGHT!
But I'm too dumb for that! :D
-plaz out-
 
^^ ah, but one thing, a ceiling light blows every now and then.
Do you want to do that? (or should I not ask!)

Now wazza, I got to wonder at you, when instead of interpreting 'blow' as orgasm, you interpret it as 'blow' as in performing the act of fellatio.
BADOOM TISH!
And without further ado, now on to the main course.

They say the universe has a finite, but increasing, volume. Then what's outside of the universe, where are the edges, what happens when you get to the edges?
Here's another one.
Is the future fixed or do we make it up as we go along. I mean think back to before you clicked on this thread. Now did you decide to click on this thread and hence create the present senario, or were you always destined to think want to click on the link and so you did.
 
sllip, in your own twisted, convoluted, stoner mind, you have managed to stumble onto a topic that has mindfucked theologians since the time of luther, calvin and zwingli. it's called predestination, and after 500 years or more of concentrated debate, we are no closer to finding an answer.
please drive through to the next window.
 
Funnily enough I usually think of these things when I'm straight and have a bit of time on my hands. Usually when I'm stoned out of my brain I'm either thinking, did 10sec ago really happen or did I just imagine it? or Maaaannnnn I got the munchies real bad.
I personally think the future is fixed because if we have parrallel universes then if you think about it my present is someone else future. So that means that if I go back in time to their present I can tell them what the future is about. Hence for them the future is fixed.
Like Terminator for instance. That guy tells Sarah all about the future. So this means that these events have to happen since the have happened for him and can't simply not happen. So that means the future for the Conners was already determind since the guy tells them what their future is.
Clear as mud?

Space, it seems to go on and on forever, but then at the end there's a monkey throwing barrels at you -Fry.

When we look at a star 150 light years away, we are looking at how that star looked exactly 150 years ago.
Thus, when we look at a star 13.5 billion light years away, we are looking at how that star looked exactly 13.5 billion years ago.
Now according to study of cosmological principles, the universe was infinitely small and dense and was at a "singularity", (the whole universe was at one single point) exactly 13.5 billion years ago, before the supposed Big Bang.
So when we look at a star through a microscope that is 13.5 billion light years away, shouldn't that star be right next to us, or even better, part of us, seeing as we are seeing that star as it was before the big bang?
wHiTeBoY's philosophy and hence his terrible confusion: The further away we look into deep space, the closer everything is.
Thus, the further away an object is, the closer is actually is.
I would like to get some feedback from this by anyone.
It is a mindfuck.

whiteboy: Wouldnt that be assuming that the object was moving in exactly the same direction as us??? A little hard to concentrate right now, but, if we see something 13.5 billion light years away, it just means that somethin was there 13.5 billion years ago, our present position doesn't come into it at all. hmmmm, trying to make sense but maybe not quite getting there.
 
another strange thought..
if i drilled a hole in the Earth so deep it came out the other side, and had some way to ignore all the heat that exists in the middle.
What would happen when i jumped in it???
After i get halfway to 'china' i am falling up. Imagine getting stuck in the middle :) with every way up.
 
WhiteBoy there is a slight hole in your theory. If 13.5 billion years ago the said star started out next to us, then it has to have travelled 13.5 billion light years in 13.5 billion years, hence it would have to be travelling at the speed of light which is a physical impossibility.
Plus you have taken into account distortions of space-time.
 
What if all action is constant, predictible and eternal, and we are under the perception that we control our actions. When really this is just a dellusion, we are tricked into thinking we have control of our actions. Tricked by our own minds...
/me cuts out his eyes
:D
 
In the early expansion of the universe there has to be a close balance between the expansive energy (driving things apart) and the force of gravity (pulling things together). If expansion dominated then matter would fly apart too rapidly for condensation into galaxies and stars to take place. Nothing interesting could happen in so thinly spread a world. On the other hand, if gravity dominated, the world would collapse in on itself again before there was time for the process of life to get going. For us to be possible requires a balance between the effects of expansion and contraction which at a very early epoch in the universe's history (the Planck time) has to differ from equality by not more than 1 in 10^60. The numerate will marvel at such a degree of accuracy. For the non-numerate i will borrow an illustration from Paul Davies of what that accuracy means. He points out that it is the same as aiming at a target an inch wide on the other side of the observable universe, twenty thousand million light years away, and hitting the mark!
