Some things that made me laugh

From [livejournal.com profile] memegarden: Bizarrely-translated Chinese menu, with entries like "Strange Flavor Of Inside Freasuse" and "Carbon burns fresh particularly must".

From [livejournal.com profile] locke61dv: ASCII maps.

From [livejournal.com profile] nickvaracalli: Eerily topical comment spam.

From [livejournal.com profile] dilbert_blog: On relativity:
1. The earth couldn’t create itself. Therefore the universe must have always been here, even if compressed into a singularity so that time as we know it doesn’t have meaning.

When I make that argument to religious people, they look at me like I just took a wiz on the couch while announcing that I plan to marry their daughter. My reasoning makes absolutely no sense after it leaves my bubble of reality and enters theirs. Somehow it turns into nonsense on the trip.
