Large Hadron Collider and the Potential for Cataclysm

I think it'd be a bit like this.

When they meet, one of The Vault Dweller's henchmen runs up to Gordon's car and sets off a grenade, blowing the car sky high, and then another of the henchmen throws a knife as well. The Vault Dweller's won, right? Wrong. Gordon gets out of the car after it finally falls to the ground, and kills the other henchman. A nice touch is that there's a knife in Gordon's stomach when he gets out, so somehow he was actually hit by that knife. The Vault Dweller and Gordon fire at each other with their guns until they run out of ammo. THAT'S it, right? Nope! Gordon takes out a rocket launcher from the back of his HEV suit, and The Vault Dweller rips a Gatling laser out of his body. Then they fire at each other, both weapons colliding in mid-air. Cut to a view of Earth from space, and a nuclear mushroom cloud envelops everything. THE END.

The Colbert Report talked about the Collider today. Pretty funny segment actually. Talked about bobcats too. Don't know where I was going with that........

The largest particle accelerator in the world, the LHC, constructed underground on the Swiss-French border near Geneva has been switched off for an as of yet unknown period of time.

According to De Standaard, the leading Dutch language newspaper in Belgium, the Large Hadron Collider has been switched off because there is a problem with the cooling system. The problem should be solved before the end of the week, but an exact time is unknown.

ze LHC is overheating already.

and they haven't even collided anything yet.

bunch of sissies. they shouldn't shut it off before it goes over 9000.
 
It goes to 11.
Bet all of the idiots who are freaking out over it are happy.

Large Hadron Collider: Public chooses 'Halo' as its new name

The name "Halo" sounds much catchier and should adorn the £4.4 billion experiment, according to a poll organised by the Royal Society of Chemistry in London

.......

Fed up with "the contrived acronyms that plague the world of science," the RSC says it "picked a suggestion which is simple, memorable, and brings to mind the deserved grandeur of perhaps the most important experiment ever built."

"Halo conjures visions of radiant beauty, power and wisdom. The circle of light reflects the collider's form; it is a crowning achievement of science and engineering. It also gives more than a nod to the experiment's importance to religious debate.

Halo conjures visions of radiant beauty, power and wisdom..... Master Chief?
 
How about thunderdome.


2 particle enter.

500 billion particles leave.

HALO will always be High Altitude Low Opening for me...

anyhow, what's so hard about saying Large Hadron Collider, or LHC?

I know seriously. It's short and doesn't match anything else.

Means dropping from a plane with a parachute at very high altitude, and opening just before hitting the ground. Used in special forces groups for stealthy insertion.

God damn it. God damn it, I hate that game. Almost as much as I hate the hype and obsession the dumbass mainstream gamers have put on it. What a joke. I hope as soon as CERN and the scientific community realizes the name came from a crappy video game, someone just says, "NO, no, hell no. Forget it. We can't name it that." What was so hard about saying Large Hadron Collider anyway? We didn't make a stupid name for the particle accelerator.
The only way I'll accept this disgraceful name is if we can market fallout shelters under Vault-Tec®. Who knows, depending on the results of this machine's performance, we may have to...

It's when you forget to open your parachute in time, and do it later. If you survive, it's a HALO jump, if you don't, it's an accident and they scrape you off the ground and send in a can to your parents.
 
Large Hadron Collider. AKA. Killing machine

Well they finally collided two particles today.

They said it's only at about half energy (1.18m eV, if I recall correctly) and it'd still take them another 3 years to collide the particles at 99.995% the speed of light.
 
Well, we're still here, so...

HAHA FUCK YOU, RELIGIOUS FUCKS! I HOPE YOU FUCKING FUCKDIE!


There.
 
Damn, now how I will explain all the bills I did, all the people I fucked, and all shit I did? I was hoping that a black hole would crush us all :/
