Science Time: Oh, Sh*t, Dawg. Jupiter is BIG, Yo!

Posted: 31 Jan 2011 08:41 AM PST

Let’s have some science.

The most insane thing about space is the scale of all the crap in it. True story. The size of things and the distances between those things are enormous, and it is almost always awesome to see that represented in some sort of relatable way. Remember when Bill Nye got on his bike and rode a bunch of miles to give us a sense of the actual scale of the solar system? That was awesome. Well here’s another awesome thing:

Some guy named Brad Goodspeed made a video of what other planets would look like if they were all the same distance from the Earth as the moon. Jupiter is, like, whoa, get out of here, so big.

Thanks, The High Definite.

Al Pacino Arrives At Airport, Wears Completely Normal Number Of Jackets

Posted: 31 Jan 2011 08:09 AM PST

Al Pacino arrived at JFK airport at some time from some place with some number of jackets.

“Oh, I never check my jackets. I only fly with carry-on jackets.” – Probably Al Pacino.

“I always make sure I have a third jacket in case my first two jackets get cold.” – Probably Al Pacino again because there is no way he is able to talk about anything not related to explaining the number of jackets he is wearing.

Bundle up, Al!

“I will.” – Al Pacino.

“And for the record, zip up sweater things TOTALLY count as jackets, so don’t anybody start anything over that.” – Robert DeNiro, Friend of Al Pacino

Thanks, Splash, the outlet for all the newest in older celebrity Jacket news.

New York Weather Forecast Gives Up, Just Says “A Mess!”

Posted: 31 Jan 2011 07:34 AM PST

If you live on the East Coast or know people who do or you’re on the internet (taking a wild stab at that last one), you know that the weather on the East Coast this January has been one giant unending frozen penis of a thing, causing nonstop inconveniences and countless “I know it’s winter but still WAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!” Tweets (I actually changed my account to @WinterWAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! All the ones with fewer A’s were taken.)

Like most of us, Fox 5 News in New York has given up. Check out Wednesday’s exasperated forecast:

I don’t know, ice, rain, whatever – we just know it’s gonna be a f***ing mess.

Thursday’s report just says “What do you f***ing think? More f***ing snow, d*ckheads. Sorry, didn’t mean to lash out there, but seriously like, f*ck, you know?”
