PurpleHelKat: A little science humor:

Why was Heisenberg's wife unsatisfied?

When he had the time he didn't have the energy, and when he had the position, he didn't have the momentum.


Diana172: though he was a good man
PurpleHelKat: how so
Diana172: I don't know, the uncertainty principal
Diana172: quantum mechanics
PurpleHelKat: lol
Diana172: plus he was probably a really cool/rich scientist if he had a wifePurpleHelKat: well he didn't necessarily have a wife
Diana172: oh man
Diana172: poor heisenberg
PurpleHelKat: lol
PurpleHelKat: well there are jokes involving helen keller driving




Diana172: you know what's weird
PurpleHelKat: hmm?
Diana172: when you know something smells bad, but it's human nature to be curious
Diana172: and smell it anyway
PurpleHelKat: of course



Diana172: like I have this hair removal cream (from my I wonder what this stuff actually does days)
PurpleHelKat: lol
Diana172: it's actually horrible smelling
Diana172: and plus you have to leave it on for like 20 minutes
Diana172: so you're just sitting there in your bathroom suffocating


Diana172: and the other day I was like
Diana172: man
Diana172: I bet that memory was just me being dramatic
Diana172: let's give her a whif
PurpleHelKat: ahahahahaha
Diana172: it was horrible
PurpleHelKat: ahahahaha



PurpleHelKat: see i'm not really like that
PurpleHelKat: i'm like
PurpleHelKat: a five year old helen tastes bad cheese
PurpleHelKat: and never eats it again


PurpleHelKat: but i do smell my food before i eat it
PurpleHelKat: which makes me think, I'm assuming its going to smell bad
PurpleHelKat: but that's so i don't taste the bad


Diana172: I've decided that I have a kind of irrational fear

Diana172: or maybe it's rational, but at least it's a fear

Diana172: lol
Diana172: so this irrational fear of mine is killing spiders
Diana172: I want them to die
Diana172: but I'm very afraid of doing it
Diana172: because you don't know what's going to happen
Diana172: is it going to get back up?
Diana172: is it going to squirt?
PurpleHelKat: i'm terrified of killing spiders
Diana172: is it going to jump in your hair?
PurpleHelKat: i think they're going to jump at me in revenge
PurpleHelKat: as zombie spiders



Diana172: I can't believe that a spider could survive the mail system
Diana172: a spider!
Diana172: those things are fragile
PurpleHelKat: he wasn't even crushed
PurpleHelKat: amazing
Diana172: I can't even get computer parts undamaged





Diana172: did you know that at 67 cents per 9 ounce bag, you could buy 422 million conversation hearts for a million dollars?
Diana172: that's what I would do if I had two million dollars
Diana172: the first million is to build my lego kingdom
Diana172: then fill it with hearts
Diana172: and then be poor with nothing to eat but stale hearts



***Diana talks on and on about her Lego house***


PurpleHelKat: that's right
PurpleHelKat: excellent plan
PurpleHelKat: get to it

Diana172: first I need two million dollars
Diana172: also, the smell would be kind of unbearable


Diana172: how many legos could I buy for a million dollars
Diana172: let me see
PurpleHelKat: lol
Diana172: brb, I have to get my catalog
PurpleHelKat: ahahahahaha
Diana172: ok catalog in hand



Diana172: clearly I want to go for largest volume with smallest price
Diana172: ok classic 2 x4 bricks are 6.99 for 50 pieces
Diana172: so one million, divided by 6.99
PurpleHelKat: not bad, not bad
Diana172: times 50
Diana172: equals 7153075.823
PurpleHelKat: that seems like a fair amount
Diana172: we'll round down because the lego company wont send me .823 of a lego
Diana172: nor am I willing to pay any more than a million dollars




Diana172: ok so now I have the same problem of how large is a lego
Diana172: also, I need to take into account the connecting of the legos
Diana172: which decreases volume
Diana172: or I could just duct tape the walls together




PurpleHelKat: you might have a problem getting that many legos at once
Diana172: I dont think so, the lego company can totally handle it
PurpleHelKat: ...i muppose




Diana172: ok so I need enough legos to have at least one room and one lego bed
Diana172: I'll just take the roof off to get inside
Diana172: because asking the lego company to make a giant lego door is too much




PurpleHelKat: you could just build it inside an existing room
Diana172: noooooooooo
Diana172: no one will see my glory



Diana172: finding the dimensions of a lego is harder than you'd think
PurpleHelKat: you could make a cabin out of plexiglass
Diana172: without actually having some legos at my disposal
PurpleHelKat: and build inside that
Diana172: that would be intrusive
Diana172: oh
Diana172: I guess yeah
Diana172: but it'd be hot
Diana172: what with the greenhouse effect
Diana172: actually, that'd be awesome
Diana172: free heating!



PurpleHelKat: you are cold a lot



PurpleHelKat: oooo
PurpleHelKat: my plans are awesome




INTERESTING LEGO FACT: Six 2 X 4 LEGO bricks of the same color can be combined in 102,981,500 different ways.

Diana172: imagine how many ways 7153075.823 legos could be combined!




Diana172: let's start out making one square wall, slightly taller than me
Diana172: I am approximately 1584.96 millimeters



Diana172: 165.1 legos tall
Diana172: 49 legos wide




Diana172: so 165.1times 49
Diana172: 8177.403
Diana172: legos per wall
Diana172: times four walls
Diana172: oh but the connecting
Diana172: BAH
PurpleHelKat: lollll
Diana172: ok for estimation's sake
Diana172: we're going to forget that you lose volume when you connect them
Diana172: and I'll just hunch as I go in




Diana172: ok so 8177.403 times four
Diana172: 32709.612 legos
Diana172: without a roof



Diana172: because I'm connecting them by halves and there's two halves for both the length and width
Diana172: sooooooooooooooooo
PurpleHelKat: but you'd have to have two layers for the roof
Diana172: wait no that doesn't make sense
PurpleHelKat: to conect it together
Diana172: that would be a shit ass roof
Diana172: as it would be not the part that connects



Diana172: I'll just attach the extra ones on the end for a little decoration
Diana172: because hey, lego houses are fancy
PurpleHelKat: true, true



Diana172: ok 99.06 legos (for the side that has the width running along the top of the roof)
PurpleHelKat: you're going to have to draw me a blue print for this



Diana172: oh wait, plus two because it would cave in on me
Diana172: haha
Diana172: ok 101.6 legos




Diana172: with the reinforcers, it comes to 10415.2436
Diana172: wow i'm done!
PurpleHelKat: yay!
Diana172: now to total the legos
Diana172: 43124.8556 legos
PurpleHelKat: that's going to be pricey, lol
Diana172: clearly falls short of my 7153075.823
Diana172: I could build a kitchen!



Diana172: I think they should make a crap load of tiny legos that are proportional to a doll-sized me
Diana172: that way, this would be a lot easier
Diana172: but I'd have to use tweezers




(about lego sculptors)
PurpleHelKat: how fun would it be to watch them?
PurpleHelKat: and throw rocks




Diana172: I'm hoping that when the lego company finds out about my lego kingdom, they'll give me some free legos
PurpleHelKat: lol
Diana172: and then I could build a pool house
Diana172: free pool house!




Diana172: also, I'd request more fashionable lego colors
PurpleHelKat: oooo
PurpleHelKat: like hot pink
Diana172: or I could wallpaper my house, I guess




Diana172: many things will threaten my lego kingdom... prowlers, hurricanes, someone who pokes it




Diana172: but sometimes legos are really strong
Diana172: like when i was little
Diana172: there was always at least one pair of legos permanently attached to each other
Diana172: they're seamless! you just can't get them apart
PurpleHelKat: i hated it when that happend!!!!!!
Diana172: lol
PurpleHelKat: and you like break your nails
Diana172: and bite it
PurpleHelKat: and just tug and tug




Diana172: man, I'm totally rockin the lego world with my first million dollars
Diana172: also, with the invention of spray paint for plastic, I think it will be charming



PurpleHelKat: legos don't do circles
Diana172: because you'd have to attach them all cockeyed
Diana172: you could though, given the right assortment
Diana172: it wouldn't be perfect, and you'd probably need to saran wrap it from the inside
Diana172: some sort of weather proofing
PurpleHelKat: i don't think o
PurpleHelKat: so
PurpleHelKat: it would be very rickety
Diana172: yes very rickety indeed, but cool
