Whereas a relativistic mechanic can get two cars into a one-car garage by going fast enough.

(But not for very long, and not everyone will agree that he's achieved it.)

A relativistic mechanic can't get past the door!

My Dad always wanted to ditch his career as a High School History teacher and play the triangle for the Boston Pops.

At ##\frac{\sqrt 3}2c## (needed for a length contraction factor of 2), he is coming through your garage door. Or his atomised remains are, anyway.

There was this gynecologist who walked away from his career to go take up a new trade as an auto repair man.

He drew crowds every time he worked on a car, disassembling and re-assembling the engine entirely through the tailpipe.

Apologies. That was lazy design.
I should have parameterized it for greater reusability.

There was this [profession] who walked away from his career to go take up a new trade as an auto repair man.
He drew crowds every time he worked on a car, [activity].

| profession | activity |
| gynecologist | disassembling and re-assembling the engine entirely through the tailpipe |
| proctologist | lubing up and saying, 'Now just try to idle' |
| general practitioner | grabbing the muffler and saying 'Turn your head and backfire' |

I don't get it. Is that a pun about Britney's mental health problems? Or a criticism about "fake news" on the internet? Or a hint that irony doesn't transport well on the internet?

Toxic is a song by Britney Spears, in the video for which she wears the outfit pictured in your post.

I was browsing Amazon.de (German Amazon) for a compass and found one with a good rating.
But I got uncertain after I read this customer review... it seems dangerous to wear the compass around the neck:

But I'll be careful... I will buy it and put the compass in my pocket instead. :smile:

(shoutout to all Beatles fans, including @pinball1970 and @ZapperZ )

I could easily see myself doing exactly this thing... it's my kind of humor...

The guy first plays stupid in a joke, and then after many people take it way too seriously and even get upset, he continues to play stupid, again and again in a hilarious way.

Never give up, never surrender when doing comedy like this! :biggrin:#20 You Know You're Good At Trolling When You P-ss Off The Entire Internet

(I wouldn't do it on PF though; here I usually don't play stupid, so if I sound stupid here, it's probably not a play. :smile:)

I think that in our future, AI will be able to generate a facsimile of us from our online postings and allow future generations to have conversations with us. Some people would be in serious trouble.

Borg will be seen as a visionary for predicting this capability. To those in the future, go to page 151. :oldtongue:

This has hair-raising shades of Roko's Basilisk.

"...an otherwise benevolent artificial superintelligence (AI) in the future would be incentivized to create a virtual reality simulation to torture anyone who knew of its potential existence but did not directly contribute to its advancement or development, in order to incentivise said advancement."

The creepy part being

"...its stipulation that knowing about the theory and its basilisk made one vulnerable to the basilisk itself."

"What do you look like? Where did you get your black eyes from?"

"You remember that I have this latent OCD problem? Now there was this woman in front of me on the escalator in the department store with her skirt stuck up her butt. I pulled it out and she turned around and slapped me hard!"

"And the other eye?"

"I pushed it back in."

Here's a riddle: Who gets to drive first?

I could have erased the German comment since the picture is self-explaining, but that would have caused an upload of an entire picture instead of only a few bytes for the link.

I experienced that a couple of times in Malaysia. On some intersections without traffic lights, people would just start driving across if the 1st lane was open and then wait for an opening in the 2nd lane, then completing the crossing. Once traffic densities from multiple directions reached a threshold the result was a Gordian knot. We all had to wait for a policeman to come along on a motorbike and sort it out.

They had a similar mentality with elevators: when the doors opened, people outside would just push to get in, all together, while those inside were trying to get out, all together.
