Stop it! This is all to much for my fragile little mind. I was going to hoover the stairs today but fuckit, I'll hit the drink instead.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

There should be a name in future DSM books for what we're suffering from when we conceive of such numbers, and figure out what treatments would be effective for people like us. Nobody deserves to go through all this pain and suffering just because of a number.

And yet, these numbers are all *finite*.

BTW, read 'observable universe' in place of 'universe above'.
