What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

The French equivalent of the English idiom ‘I have no more fucks to give’ translates as ‘I am painting my balls with the brush of disinterest.’

Please try to use this phrase whenever possible.

Try using “my balls have been painted with the brush of interest” as a pick up line.

If you took out all of the empty space from between and within the atoms making up each human being, the entire human race would fit into the volume of a sugar cube.

Hmmm, not quite true.

Free floating planets, also known as rogue planets, are planet sized bodies with do not orbit any particular star, but drift in  independent orbits around the center of Milky Way.   They have been suspected to exist for a long time, when computer models of planetary system formation suggest young planets are often ejected from their parent systems during very early days of each solar system.

Micro-lensing experiments that simultaneously monitor large numbers of background stars looking for specific patterns of minute transient dimming that indicate passage of planet sized bodies near line of sight to these stars suggest the number of free floating planets in the Milky Way are truly enormous.   There may be up to 10 unattached rogue planets pursuing its own independent orbit about the center of Milky Way for each star in the Milky Way.

Contrary to popular conception of planets being mainly objects found in cohorts in stately or frenetic orbits around stars, and bathed in not always hospitable light of the star, majority of planets in the Milky Way may in fact live out almost their entire existences alone in the Stygian darkness of interstellar space, never approaching any star close enough for its light to cast a shadow except on average once every billion years or so.     

A small percentage of these rogue planets may in fact have never orbited any star, but formed by themselves out of interstellar dust and gas in stunted version of the process that formed stars.   These rogue planets would likely be accompanies by a retinue of moons that formed in the same process.

But majority of rogue planets are likely to be completely alone, because the process that ejected them from their parent solar systems in their youths is likely to have stripped them of 9 out of every 10 systems of moons they once had.

I don’t use pick up lines these days, but I said it to my wife. The results were delightful.

Wtf do rogue planets have to do with what Fake Messiah said?
