colly0410 1,181 Posted October 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 My love life back than was up & down like a prostitutes knickers, lol, I'd usually blow it by doing or saying sumat stupid. My mate said his girlfriends mate fancied me, I knew she was hot so went for it = it was the wrong mate, it was the munter who fancied me. I went out with her for a bit to sort of save face, she worked at a biscuit barrel factory in Kirkby & would give a me a biscuit barrel she'd nicked every time I saw her, Mam had more biscuit barrels than she knew what to do with, lol. She said she wanted to get pregnant so I legged it... 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 You should get together with Ben and write a book, Colly. Don't think we'd learn much about quantum physics but it would certainly be a [biscuit] barrel of laughs! 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

colly0410 1,181 Posted October 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 I've still got a couple of biscuit barrels she gave me, we keep things like pens, those glasses repair kits, watch batteries & other useless gubbins in them... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 I have to ask this, Colly, because I'm nosey. Were the barrels originally full of biscuits or were they empty? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colly0410 1,181 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 They were empty Jill, shame as I like chocolate chip cookies.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colly0410 1,181 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Been thinking. What if lights don't give out light but suck in dark so leaving light behind = they'd be 'dark suckers.' When the bulb is full of dark it goes 'phut' & you throw it in the bin with all the dark inside it, you then put a new empty bulb in to start sucking in dark again. You can buy mini weighing scale gubbins for your lampholder with an alarm built in = it weighs the bulb plus the dark & can tell you when it's going to conk out with the extra weight of the darkness it's absorbed, however they're not very accurate & can give a false alarm. Of course the biggest dark sucker is the sun & that's been sucking away dark for billions of years, & when it gets mega full of dark it'll implode & suck in mega amounts darkness in seconds & be a supernova & the night sky will light up with mega amounts of negative darkness.... I'm so glad I've worked this out... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trogg 2,016 Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Colly you astound me with your knowledge, I try hard to understand all of this but I have to admit I haven't a clue. On the bright side I can now boast that I know of a super intelligent man from Mucky Uckna. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What a cheapskate, Colly! You're well rid of her! I love your thoughts on quantum theory. You're a divergent thinker and they'd have loved you at The Manning! What they never seemed to realise was that there is so much interesting stuff to cogitate as opposed to the drivel they were attempting to instil into us! Keep cogitating, my friend! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trogg, just think of the sum of all human knowledge as being contained within an empty biscuit barrel...then marvel at what there is to discover outside its confines! Failing that, ask Ben! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colly0410 1,181 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 My 'dark sucker' theory could explain dark matter & dark energy, not sure how though, lol... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colly0410 1,181 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 If you buy a dark sucker & lampholder weighing scale from B&M at the same time you get a 20% discount, you can't get fairer than that can you? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,464 Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 A dark sucker sounds like something you'd buy from the ice cream man when I was younger. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 When I worked on Mr Softee in 1968, I was often asked what was the biggest sucker I'd got. I replied, 'me' for doing this bleddy job. I was once asked outside the Deerstalker if I'd got a King Dick (A fancy ice cream based sucker covered in chocolate and nuts, made by Walls) I sheepishly replied that I'd only got Mivvi's left !

colly0410 1,181 Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 In New Scientist mag that there are hints of a mirror universe = a parallel universe where everything is - er - reversed. They think, if true, it could explain dark matter & dark energy. They're carrying out further experiments to prove or disprove the mirror universe hypothesis...... I've a funny feeling that on further investigation the mirror universe hypothesis will turn to dust in front of their eyes & the dark matter/dark energy mystery will prevail & it'll be back to the metaphorical drawing board so to speak..... I feel for these scientists when they think they've made a brilliant discovery & celebrate to the rafters, then as they carry out further experiments it comes up negative. At least they admit it (usually) if their hypothesis turns out to be a blank.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stuart.C 491 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I think these people need to get out more. Identical twins born from the same womb aren't exactly identical. So why do they think that a universe could possibly have a mirror image. Unless of course there's a 3rd universe where someone or thing is manufacturing Universes from C.A.D drawings.

Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Some time ago, I promulgated the idea of a parallel universe where Ben was a Trappist monk who had no time for women. Brew thought I needed professional help! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

colly0410 1,181 Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 After seeing the antics of Miley (next doors spaniel) I think we can assume dogs won't be running a parallel universe, she's outsmarted by their cat Shadow & our cat Pix, & he's totally brainless, lol.. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 The really smart folk already live in the Cattoverse! In the Cattoverse, everything revolves around the cat! Cats, as is often pointed out, were once worshipped as deities and most of them, including mine, have never forgotten the fact. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trogg 2,016 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Not being a cat lover I have to agree with you Jill. My son and his wife had a cat and work meant they had to move Cities and were living in Hotels, we were left with the cat. It was only for a few months ,but due to house chains breaking down it ended up over six months. It didn't take long for her to train us and take over the running of the house, in no time at all our lives revolved around the cats welfare. Are they deities? of course they are and they make sure you know it. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,429 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Hi Colly. That's why Miley is here. He/she was oviously not smart enough for the super doggoverse so was shipped over here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeverilPeril 3,281 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Over the usual Sunday afternoon pint with my physicist and scientific pals it was decided that I did have a purpose in life after all. If we were shipwrecked and in a lifeboat with no means of navigation, I would be thrown overboard at regular intervals. It was deduced that due to the magnet in the left hand side of my head, that if I was left to thrash about aimlessly I would eventually face East. They would then drag me back in and make me row in the correct direction. I have wonderful friends. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
