The Cartoon laws of physics

In summary: Notice that it's always thin males who get the nosebleeds. The other males just turn red in the face.In summary, the conversation is about various comedic laws and theories in cartoons and anime, such as the Law of Sonic Amplification and the Law of Nasal Sanguination. The conversation also includes a humorous website about cartoon physics and a website about anime laws. The conversation also touches on the concept of "Hammerspace" and the potential reasons behind nosebleeds in cartoon characters.

Cartoon Law I
Any body suspended in space will remain in space until made aware of its situation.

Daffy Duck steps off a cliff, expecting further pastureland. He loiters in midair, soliloquizing flippantly, until he chances to look down. At this point, the familiar principle of 32 feet per second takes over.

Laws of anime:

Law of Sonic Amplification, First Law of Anime Acoustics

In space, loud sounds, like explosions, are even louder because there is no air to get in the way.

...

Law of Inherent Combustability

Everything explodes. Everything.

First Corollary - Anything that explodes bulges first.

Second Corollary - Large cities are the most explosive substances known to human science. Tokyo in particular seems to be the most unstable of these cities, sometimes referred to as "The Matchstick City".

Law of Melee Luminescence

(from U. Williams)

Any being displaying extremely high levels of martial arts prowess and/or violent emotions emits light in the form of a glowing aura. This aura is usually blue for 'good guys' and red for 'bad guys'. This is attributed to Good being higher in the electromagnetic spectrum than Evil.

ahahahahahaha

Law of Nasal Sanguination

(from Ryan Pritchard and Jason Aylen)

When sexually aroused, males in Anime don't get erections, they get nosebleeds. No one's sure why this is, though... the current theory suggests that larger eyes means smaller sinuses and thinner sinus tissue (see Law #38 above). Females don't get nosebleeds, but invariably get one heck of a blush along the cheeks and across the nose, suggesting a lot of bloodflow to that region.


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Law of Extradimensional Capacitance

(from Jason Bustard)

All anime females have an extradimensional storage space of variable volume somewhere on their person from which they can instantly retrieve any object at a moment's notice.

First Corollary (The Hammer Rule) - The most common item stored is a heavy mallet, which can be used with unerring accuracy on any male who deserves it. Other common items include costumes/uniforms, power suits/armor, and large bazookas.
My favourite part.

I know a few with some pretty nice torpedoes, but no rockets.

Otherwise known as Hammerspace. It is possible that only females are able to access this extra dimension.

:rofl: Well, we don't have much choice since they never put decent pockets in women's clothing. :rofl:

Oh, and I like this one that Pengwuino listed:

:rofl: :rofl:
I suspect that's more likely a problem of a defective pressure-release valve in male cartoon characters forcing the blood flow to back up in the wrong direction and finally to break through at the weakest point.
