Did you know that some people say the world is a sphere? Actually it turns out there is just a much of a chance of it being a sphere as it is flat. We are living in a computer generated multiverse controlled by advanced robots created by aliens. Every time you have a profound thought you spawn off a completely different universe.

I thought you said you stopped drinking
When did I say that? And how is that relevant to my thread? -

You are a fucking moron.
how so? -
2015-09-01 at 5:51 PM UTCOP thinks the Earth is flat
Christopher Columbus missed Bill Krozby's district -

See post 8
I saw it... whats your point? Sorry I'm a skeptic.. I've never personally spoke to Christopher columbus or know anybody that has... so.. yeah... -
2015-09-01 at 5:56 PM UTCDid you know that some people say the world is a sphere?

2015-09-01 at 6:19 PM UTCI have never personally been to a Chillis resturaunt but I can be quite sure they exist. If your defense is "I've never talked to Christopher Columbus" you just gained 500 moron points.

2015-09-01 at 6:27 PM UTCChristopher Columbus here. What seems to be the problem?

you don't have to go to a chilis to drive by one, you;ve just gained 700 smacktard points for your faulty argument, thank you come again!

2015-09-01 at 9:24 PM UTCBill Krozby, go to the ocean, watch the boats as they pass over the horizon they dissapear bottom up. You know why? Because the world is round.
This thread is not scientific nor profound and you should be ashamed of yourself. -
2015-09-01 at 10:20 PM UTCI totally missed the flat earth angle in the OP, and focused on this: 'We are living in a computer generated multiverse controlled by advanced robots created by aliens'

The branch of physics that deals with the microscopic Universe instead of the macroscopic Universe is called quantum mechanics. A number of important discoveries have been made in this field over the years, one of them being that matter at the smallest scale can act as both particle and a wave at the same time. This is referred to as the wave-particle duality. In one notable experiment electrons were fired one by one through a screen with two slits, the thinking was that if electrons behaved as a particle they would hit the detection screen in two distinct stripes. What was noticed however was a diffraction pattern on the detection screen which would indicate the electron's acted as a wave as they passed through the slits as illustrated by the picture below.
The scientists being scientists however decided they wanted to see how the electrons behaved at the moment the passed through the slits, so they set up detectors to find out. However once the detectors were placed and the experiment was run again the results were very surprising indeed. Instead of a diffraction pattern they actually saw the two stripes they were expecting in the first place. This means that because the detectors were placed where they were the electrons suddenly started to act as particles. Would this mean that the very act of us observing a system would physically change it's properties?
Well, it turns out it's not quite as cool as that. After more experiments and a lot of study it was generally understood that the instruments used to measure the electrons had to interact with the quantum system in order to make the measurements, thereby thermodynamically changing the properties of the system causing the electrons to act as particles instead of waves.
