Discussion Overview

The thread presents a humorous and imaginative scenario where historical thinkers engage in a game of hide and seek in heaven, exploring themes of relativity, scientific concepts, and playful banter among famous figures in science.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Conceptual clarification
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant introduces a narrative where Einstein counts to 1000 while other thinkers attempt to hide, leading to humorous exchanges about their scientific contributions and concepts.
  • Weber claims he is "1 weber per meter squared," suggesting a play on units of measurement in physics.
  • Newton challenges the feasibility of counting to 1000 in a reasonable time frame, invoking the concept of time in physics.
  • Hawking proposes a time travel solution to resolve the disagreement, which Einstein acknowledges with a humorous response.
  • Other participants react with humor, critique, and confusion regarding the narrative and its execution.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express mixed reactions, with some finding humor in the scenario while others do not understand it. There is no consensus on the effectiveness of the narrative.

Contextual Notes

Some participants express confusion about the humor and references, indicating a potential gap in understanding the scientific concepts being referenced.

Who May Find This Useful

i wrote this at work, here it goes:
All of historys great thinkers are in heaven and have begun playing hide and seek. Einstein calls it. He turns around and begins to count from 1000. Weber draws out a 1 meter box and stands in the middle. Einstein turns around, spots weber and says "I see weber, he's out."
Weber replies, "nay, I am 1 weber per meter squared, Tesla is out."
Edison says under his breath "yessss."
Newton objects, "you couldn't possibly have counted all the way from 1000, it would have taken a longer period of time."
Einstein replies, "ah, but time Is relative."
Tesla complains, "why am I out again?"
Newton seizes the opportunity and says, "because there is a little weber inside you..."
"whatever, at least I didn't need a concussion to have a brainstorm... doc brown."
"You're one to talk, Death-ray."
Steven hawking tries to break up the bickering and says, "fellas, fellas, this is easily resolved by going back in time to avoid this whole disagreement."
Einstein glares at Hawking and replies, "Okay... i agree with the peace offering, we should be grateful our research has moved the world forward, let's celebrate. Hawking, do the robot."


good?
