Author Topic: Will it fit in my basement? (Read 11417 times)

Stingray · « **on:** September 17, 2008, 10:29:03 am »

I live in Oklahoma, and I don't have a basement. My hypothetical friend lives in Australia and also does not have a basement. Hypothetically (assuming it will fit), if his hypothetical basement were placed inside my hypothetical basement, what would the overall hypothetical outcome be, hypothetically? I'm suspecting some kind of rip-a-hole-in-the-universe-end-of-reality scenario, but I understand that the acquisition of a second opinion might be in order. I know that someone here knows the answer. kthxbai

In order to keep the cosmos from tearing, please use the Big Zipper when moving hypothetical basements. Make sure to XYZ when you're done.

However, this does not address the problem that the hypothetical Australian basement is from the future...

Who is this 'Stingray' fellow and why should we care about his basement, or lack thereof?

I guessing that you have a 43.33% (repeating of course) chance of creating a temporal black hole like the world has never seen before if you attempt this hypothetical mumbo jumbo flim-flammery....

Pft. Newbs.

If a portable hole is placed within a bag of holding, it opens a gate to the Astral plane, sucking in every creature in a 10 foot radius, and destroying both the bag and hole. The contents of the bag is either scattered throughout the Astral Plane or destroyed.

Thank you for all of the very useful information. I no longer care about theoretical basement physics. I now need to know if a southbound train leaves Chicago at 30 mph and an unladen African swallow leaves Miami by cab because he missed his train, how long will it take a woodchuck with false teeth to chew all the way through the entire Neil Diamond library on vinyl LP?

Which version of MAME is the train running? I hear the older versions won't go as fast.

Yeah, until you try to run DK on the newer version train... Sucks even worse if you also forgot your airplane ticket.

BTW, Which basement are these trains travelling through? The OZ one, or your shrodinger's basement?

So his basement is simultaneously there and not there? Remember, Stingray lives in OK - they don't get to see waves much, let alone collapsing ones.
