One of my friends had a hilarious idea: roleplaying with Cleverbot as the DM.Oh god.
I'm gonna say the best martial art is the art of dropping a load of high-explosive ordnance on target from several thousand feet up.

Problems, in the order they appear in reply #147:I'll prepare a facepalm for when I wake up and realize what I've done.
1. Given enough time, time will break down. There is no possible amount of time long enough for time to break down. If time has broken down, then by definition one of the endpoints on the duration being specified is undefined, since you know, time broke down and is no longer working.
2. There is no reason to think tat time and space are fundamental objects, let alone unstable ones. In all likelihood, it is subatomic, quantum particles that are the fundamental objects of the universe and our notions of time and space are just abstractions of those interactions, just like our conception of iron is an abstraction for trillions upon trillions of iron atoms all interacting with each other.
3. There is no "the multiversal theory." I mean, for one they're called multiverse theories. Multiversal isn't a word. But more importantly, no realistic theory that could be described as a "multiverse theory" predicts any way to cross between "universes". Hubble volumes are by definition unable to contact each other, different Everett branches only interact in the non-communicative ways predicted by quantum physics and modal realism defines the different universe to be isolated from one-another.
4. Moreover, it's not entirely clear what you even mean by "universe" if two supposedly distinct universes can interact - if they can interact, they're really part of the same universe, abet a universe that is mostly divided into distinct chunks. As such, there is no amount of energy that would propel you from one universe to another - anywhere you can reach by any method using any amount of energy is part of our universe.
5. There's the point Criptfeind brought up as well: Why did you use the phrase "you humans" there? Huh?
So, in short: Get some sleep, man. Things will make way more sense once you do.
Starcraft. I love the lore and playing for fun, but I've never successfully completed any of the campaigns without cheating.
There are so many problems with what you just said that I'm just going to summarize it as "No. Reality does not work like that."Yeah, please excuse my stupidity, I'm running on almost no sleep right now. What did I suggest again?
I figure that given enough time, time and space will begin to break down. If the multiversal theory is right, and you can harness enough energy, you humans may be able to propel yourselves beyond the universe and into the void between. And then encounter those who have gone before.I just want to see what happens when/if humanity transcends reality. It's feasible that if you guys are doing it, others have already.What does this even mean?
Wait. Something important happened here... Misko just got out illogicked.Wait what happened? I wasn't paying attention to them; there's so much fallacy here it's like background static.
Let there be a moment of silence for this event....
..............
Didn't that actually happen in one of the alternate future comics or something?Precisely! Semicanon events have a higher chance of persuading him it's true.
