And the wise men started toking
And ye the bud was kind
It was salvation they were smoking
And its forgiveness blew their mind

No, wait, that was a Colbert Christmas. Oh well, close enough.

Don't you know that drugs fund terrorism? That every puff of weed kills 5 innocent victims? And I'm talking about the white ones, not those scary looking foreign victims from the middle east.

I mean, just look at this government ad! How do argue with logic like "It's a fact because it's true"?

Suck on that, dope fiends!

Look at all these hybrid animals!

Tigons and ligers and...bears? Oh my!

...and they are *all* 100% correct.

A recession is two consecutive negative growth quarters in terms of GDP.

Let me just quote wikipedia for you here.

You know what a rule of thumb is right? It's not a law handed down by God, but a rough guide. This is economics, not science. Even if you were to abide strictly by the 2 quarters definition, I bet you couldn't give me a reason why it's 2 quarters and not 3 or 1.

Monopolies are created by governments. In a free market, the free flow of capital allows the emergence of new competition whenever an existing business is inefficient.

Of course, you can still watch south park without any commercials for free at South Park Zone and new episodes are put up the night the show airs (although I find they load much faster if you wait an extra day).

Skinner: Well, I was wrong. The lizards are a godsend.
Lisa: But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards?
Skinner: No problem. We simply release wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.
Lisa: But aren't the snakes even worse?
Skinner: Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.

I don't think you understand what I'm saying. The experiment we're talking about in THIS article produced 10^-16 g of anti-matter. That's far less than the amount of matter converted to energy in the first atomic bomb.

I'm taking that into account. 64 kg of uranium was in the first atom bomb. 0.6 g of that was converted into energy. I'm assuming all of the antimatter produced here is converted into energy.
