    I think they created their copy using a variation of the artist statement generator.

      My work explores the relationship between Jungian archetypes and life as performance.
      With influences as diverse as Blake and John Cage, new synergies are generated from both traditional and modern dialogues.

      uhh I found one for SF:
      My work explores the relationship between emerging sexualities and unwanted gifts.

      2. DOOMco

        That is a good one

      The local car wash owner has one of these in his office. He paid ~$3000 for it and hypes it to everyone that comes in.

      If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.

        From footnote #5

        5 Jane Smith added: “I have heard Dr. Carpenter speak of his cancer patients in person, but I’m not sure if this has been recorded. We all have to be very, very careful here in the US, because the AMA/FDA is very strict about making claims. … I also heard a woman [on a conference call] talk about her advanced stage breast cancer disappearing in 3 months.”

        Well, if Jane Smith says so…

          Look, I only listen to John Doe, he seems totally honest.

        A fountain of youth?

        In addition to the few examples of rejuvenating effects from water drinking given above, do have a look at the picture of Mr. Oshiro, Enagic’s president who has been drinking Kangen™ water for many years, see http://www.itshealthywater.com/lightoflove. After meeting him at a June 2008 Enagic conference, Jane adds, “…jet black hair…and a very beautiful spirit! I was expecting him to talk about the company and the $$, but mostly he talked about COMPASSION and helping people by giving them water! I was very impressed!”

        He might not ever get rich,
        But did you tell him what’s better than digging a ditch?

    Whoa, hold on a minute, so they’re offering to bombard you with quantum resonant magnetic stuff, AND they have a Chaos icon for their profile picture.

    I’m calling the end result now.

    E meter?

  6. DOOMco

    I like the photo they chose.

  7. Cuffy Meigs

    Regardless, without Robbie and Shikha, I feel so free!

      I notice this diagram omits breasts…what you got against boobs?

      1. trshmnstr

        They’re not seethrough?

        War on women?

        Shut up, it has a vagina.

        1. Swiss Servator

          And a mouth….

    I’ve been thinking lately about what might be wrong with California. I just don’t get it. They chose to decriminalize recreational marijuana and they still can’t chill the fuck out.

    Maybe that should be Milo’s solution. Just pass out joints at Berkeley on the condition that they have to smoke them on the spot.

    I’ve never used weed, but CA should be a lot more chill now that they have it, shouldn’t they?

        They stop mid argument to team up against someone off camera. Fantastic.

      I saw this from the dashboard and was 99% sure there’d be a link to that. A+

    The OMWC Paradox: The same people who are convinced that EM fields will give them cancer are the most likely to use magnetic bracelets, belts, insoles, and amulets.

    OMWC’s 4th Law: Anything having the word “quantum” in it is bullshit.

    OMWC’s Torture Method: If someone starts gassing about “quantum” shit, ask them what the eigenfunctions of the harmonic oscillator are.

      Scott Bakula is going to beat the shit out of you one of these weeks.

        I looked it up. He’s older than I am. He’d break a hip.

      1. Old Man With Candy

        I didn’t know that.

        SFX: SPROOOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIINGGGGG!

        1. It really is quite elegant, isn’t it?

          Quantum was my wheelhouse in college. Computational physics. Most of which I have since forgotten. Co-authored a paper, even, but I’d have to dust off my notes just to read it to myself anymore.

          1. Old Man With Candy

            Coincidentally… my senior project in QM when I was an undergrad ended up with a couple of publications. I found a copy of one of them the last time we moved and realized that I couldn’t understand it any more.

          2. Oh my god.

            You’re me from the future!

            I killed our parents before we were born.

          4. Scruffy Nerfherder

            I spent one semester as a physics grad before I said to myself “Look at these dudes, you need to have a life.” And off to engineering I went.
