“Caveman Science Fiction” comic is illustrated by Dresden Codak.

Another classic comic produced by PHD Comics!  If there is a comment section for every single academic paper, I would definitely give lots of comments.

The comic not only state the frequency of comment given, and also gives new definition for OMG, LOL, and ROTFL.

OMG = Obfuscatingly Messy Graphs

LOL = Lacks Older Literature

ROTFL = Research Objects Totally Flimsy, Lazy

Don’t forget Weissberg, et al. are one old spammer.

“Why?” is a Korean science comic book series.  The series had 20 million copies sold over the last six years, which is a new record in the local publishing industry.  “Why?” is published by a local children’s books publisher, YeaRimDang.  Cho Young-sun, the cartoonist of the series, tried to combine illustration and accurate knowledge to deliver the facts to children, hence aid them in studying.  The main readers of the 50-volume science comic books are kindergarten children and elementary school students.  The comic was first published in 1989 with Korean title, but change to English title “Why?” in 2001 as the company is keen in the overseas markets.  The series had been copyrighted to China, Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia, Russia and France, and 1.3 million copies had been published.  United States and Japan will be the company’s next target.

The same questions keep popping up every semester by the same people.

“This might be a dumb question…”

Translation: “This is the smartest question I can ever ask, and if you can’t answer it, you are a dumbass”

Perhaps the creation of our universe is really an accidental intelligent design 13.8 billion years ago, by octopus.

All attempts to reconcile faith with science and reason are consigned to failure and ridicule for precisely these reasons.  I read, for example, of some ecumenical conference of Christians who desire to show their broad-mindedness and invite some physicists along.  But I am compelled to remember what I know — which is that there would be no such churches in the first place if humanity had not been afraid of the weather, the dark, the plague, the eclipse, and all manner of other things now easily explicable.  And also if humanity had not been compelled, on pain of extremely agonizing consequences, to pay the exorbitant tithes and taxes that raised the imposing edifices of religion.

I wouldn’t be going to school if that happens.

I stumbled this strip and rearranged the strip so that it is viewable in this blog.

Muon?  What on earth is that?  If god exist, he’s a joker.

The dude who came up with “star registries” is smart and dude who came out with this oxygen adoption is brilliant!

Perhaps I shall start an “Adopt A Carbon Molecule Foundation” and you can adopt a carbon that was farted by our creator before.
