Nerdity! A random Image from the internets.


  • Yes, it's a rageface meme

  • Yes it has to do with Always Sunny

  • No, I didn't make it

  • Yes, I'm putting it behind the cut so Dustin doesn't complain that I bump posts off the front page with their length

Nerdity! / Article of the Day


So here we are again, its 11am and I'm the only one who's posted on the blog since the end of last week.

Dustin's lost interest, Perm says he accomplished everything he wanted to by getting a compliment that we were funny (sup Picos), Evan won't post until later this week, and I'm not around Sac enough to piss him off. Edit: Thanks for posting Robby

Ergo today we're going to talk about moar science things.


Todays article has the headline "The Testicle Tree that Boosts Fertility."


I'm not making this up.... And they're talking about avocados you bums.

Nerdity!: Who's more badass?

So in an effort to encourage people to read more sciencey things I've stumbled upon today's article. Needless to say, I'm changing "Who would win" to ask you, my readers,


"Who's more badass?"



(Credit to the Dresden Codak Comics... because they're awesome)


For those of you who don't actually want to read the whole thing and make fun of me in the comments section it goes like this.


"When a wasp approached a swarm of ants on the tuna bait, the ants would begin charging at it, spitting acid and trying to bite the insect, which is 200 times larger. Often this was enough to make the poor wasp flee in a panic, but in rare bursts of bravery, it would occasionally grab a Napoleonic ant in its mandibles, fly backward a few centimeters with the insect twitching in its jaws, open its mandibles, and let gravity do its work."

Keep in mind here that in this test, the wasp was ~200x LARGER than the ants.

Cooperlogic behind the cut. Debate in the comments.

CooperMusic / Nerdity! : Pi Day


Pretty sure I'd have to turn in my nerd card if I didn't post something about this today.

3/14 is Pi Day. Yeah π for everyone.

Watch the video below because it's awesome. (0:45 if you're impatient)




Now if you don't mind I'm going to watch the Blackhawks and Sharks play real hockey.... and eat apple pie.

PS Yes I have a nerd card.

Nerdity!: MST3K

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is:

Seriously. The. Best. Show. Of. All. Time.

No joke. Somebody buy a best of dvd of these guys for me and i will love you long time be very thankful.

This is just a clip. But if you can grab a full youtube of these guys (about an hour each) it's the best. Basically every satirical comment you've ever made during a movie was the basis for this show.

NETWORK EXECS BRING THIS BACK.
