Sheldon: LONG-WINDED SENTENCE
Asian guy: LONG-WINDED SENTENCE IN AN ACCENT
Howard: I'M A VIRGIN
Penny: omg geeks

and judging by the picture Smithy, one of the suns orbits the other sun, and this planet orbits that one.

If you watch it without the laugh track it's a real eye opener. So many of these meh comedy shows you watch at three in the afternoon because you're bored only make you laugh because of this odd infectious stimuli with hearing others laugh on telly. When you remove the laugh track the super obvious, tame as hell lines have no impact whatsoever. Any of us could have written the thing.

-directs that post to the writers of Friends, Two and a Half Men and How I Met Your Mother-

[Shaun]

YES KARL I WENT THERE.

****ING NEIL ****ING PATRICK ****ING HARRIS AND HIS CHARMS AND HIS NO REAL FUNNY MATERIAL. caps

[Smithy]

friends finished nearly 10 years ago shaun

[Stu]

I love How I Met Your Mother. I know I'm being a real hypocrite with this one but NPH's character really does make the show. It fills that stupid TV when I'm lazy niche just fine [And it is a valid niche, don't get me wrong. It's just not a masterpiece].

Peep Show does have a tendancy to make every other sitcom around these days look like childs play though. It's actually too good.

[Doogle]

Tbf, the way the lines are delivered is something to do with the laugh track/live audience. If they weren't ever meant to have the laugh track I think they'd act it very differently. It wouldn't be much funnier but it'd be less awkward

[Photon]

Stop talking about a TV show in a thread about astronomy.

[Doogle]

Yes sir. sorry sir.

[Patrick]

Space.

Yes. When you look up in the night sky, those dots you are seeing are distant stars, and sometimes planets in our solar system.


This is a smaller section of the Hubble Deep Field image. Every bright point is a galaxy like our own(known as the Milky Way), containing billions of stars in each of them. Some of those galaxies are actually colliding with other galaxies.


If you set a camera to take a very long exposure in a region with no light pollution(such as a desert), you can see the interior of our galaxy. That bright area contains what's known as the Galactic Core. It's packed full of nebulae, stars, solar systems, black holes, radiation, gas, etc. It is theorized that every galaxy contains what is known as a Supermassive Black Hole, directly at the center of the galactic core, which is what holds the galaxies together.

Aye that's the supposed .gif I was on about I think, Grimnir.

Photon : That's bloody awesome. Makes me guilty about totally snubbing Photography in our first year of film last year. That's amazing that you can do that with a camera in a desert. I'd never even thought of such a thing as light pollution.

Patrick : Next time you're looking out the window stoned remember plenty of the stars you see in the sky are actually now dead and you only see them because it takes the light from them so many years to reach us. Time travel right in front of your eyes, baby.

[Doogle]

**** the Earth is tiny. Never ever realised there were stars that big

[Benjamin]

Do you know what else fascinates me? Black Holes. They always intrigue my curiosity.

[Photon]

Stu, you should never snub photography. Many great filmmakers were also awesome photographers.

Ukturtle, indeed they are quite fascinating. In fact, SETI recorded a burst of energy that was so brief, powerful, and unique, they imagined it could only be two black holes colliding.

[Stu]

Photography bored the bejaysus out of me in fairness. And I'm a writer so I've dropped most of the technical camera & lighting stuff this year anyway .

That darkroom. Man. It still gives me nightmares. I can still smell those awful non ingestible chemicals.

[Photon]

Some dudes combined a bunch of blue and red shift data to chart out how galaxies have moved over billions of years. It seems they bunch together to form a web like structure.
