On a completely different note

I thought I'd share with you people a little thing that's been kicking around in my mind recently. That thing I would like to call the "Physics theories are chicks" analogy.
For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about, well..... hopefully you'll catch on to most as I go along. For those of you who do, and that's a depressingly large portion of you, please giggle along with me and feel free to add your own.

Newtonian Physics: Is that chick that... well.... yeah she's kinda hot, but just seems a bit over-rated. I mean.... EVERYONE knows her, everyone makes such a big deal about her, but at the end of the day, is she really THAT good? I say no.

Lagrangian Physics: Is Newtonian Physics's younger sister. Except that unlike Newtonian Physics nobody seems to know about her which is really weird, because only a pretty cursory glance will tell you that she's HOT!! So much hotter than her older sister. She can do all the same things her older sister can, except she's more graceful, more elegant, and easier. You can't help but feel that if only more people knew about her, she'd completely out-shine her older sister.

Special Relativity: is that cool chick that's way fun to hang out with, just don't let things get too serious. She's pretty damn cute, and you two can just kick around talking crap for ages. Everyone seems to know her, and reckon she's pretty cute, but not many seem to know her well. Most people just know her name and that's it. Awesome chick right? Yeah, just don't get too close. Try and get serious with her and she rounds on you, and then it's just a massive pile of headaches until you decide it's better to just stay friends.

General Relativity: Special Relativity's younger sister, but unlike Special, General's a complete bitch! It's a shame, because you know that underneath the nasty veneer she is a VERY FEAKING cool chick. Problem is the second you try to approach her she'll start spouting weird shit at you and you're better off just turning around and talking crap with her sister, even if she's not as cool.

Maxwell's Electromagnetism: Elegance wrapped up in hot. You wish all chicks were this easy to get on with. Everything she does she does with such grace, and you enjoy every minute you spend with her. Only problem is she does lack a bit of depth, and after spending a bit of time with her you find yourself thinking that despite her grace she just lacks a certain something. It's about this time you wish you were talking to Quantum Physics or one of the Relativity sisters instead. But damn, what she can do.... HOT!

Quantum Physics: She's the chick who sits in the corner, and everyone's a bit intimidated by her, even most of the guys who hang out with General Relativity. Yeah, you know she's cool, but you really can't quite decide whether she's hot or ugly. Most people decide ugly and go chat with some other chick instead. Thing is the more you talk to her, the more you come around to her way of thinking. Sure she's really different to the others, and that makes her hard to get to know. It also means that most of the other girls don't like her at all. But take it from a guy who's been getting to know her for several years now; she never stops being a bit bitchy at times, but she is VERY cool, and after a while you start to realise her unconventional appearance contains a certain elegance and beauty.


Well I hope you guys enjoy this. Please let me know your thoughts. I considered getting on of you to post it on Seb's blog, so maybe it should get re-posted over there.

    It has been too long since I have seen physics humour from the old crew.
    Ah... the good ol' days...
