What is a bowling ball racket anyway?

Kecessa, in xkcd #2852: Parameterball

Your can recreate something like that as a dinner with friends/family, more fun when there’s a whole bunch of people!

The menu is written in gibberish, three courses, people at the table choose an utensil, a dish and a meal for each course, only the people in the kitchen know what each item on the menu is.

Good luck eating spaghetti out of a coffee mug with a knife 😂

matter,

Why would you ever choose a coffee mug and a knife as your dish and utensil? That doesn’t work for any food… And a deep plate/wide bowl + fork would work for basically everything.

RobotFK,

Because you would not be aware of what Dish and Utensil you choose until you got it

matter,

Oh, they’re on the menu in gibberish too, I see. Sounds fun.

Really, no links to the actual game? Don’t tell me that no one bothered to make this?

WalrusDragonOnABike,

All you need is a series of rackets, balls, nets, tables of various sizes, and a giant court that you can paint onto and you can do it was any rng generator.

Hmm, I haven’t worked with Godot’s 3D system yet, this seems like as good an excuse as any.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messier_object

The Messier objects are a set of 110 astronomical objects catalogued by the French astronomer Charles Messier in his Catalogue des Nébuleuses et des Amas d’Étoiles (Catalogue of Nebulae and Star Clusters). Because Messier was only interested in finding comets, he created a list of those non-comet objects that frustrated his hunt for them. The compilation of this list, in collaboration with his assistant Pierre Méchain, is known as the Messier catalogue. This catalogue of objects is one of the most famous lists of astronomical objects, and many Messier objects are still referenced by their Messier numbers. The catalogue includes most of the astronomical deep-sky objects that can easily be observed from Earth’s Northern Hemisphere; many Messier objects are popular targets for amateur astronomers.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_of_Theseus

The Ship of Theseus is a thought experiment about whether an object which has had all of its original components replaced remains the same object

Scrof,

Thanks!

The alt text is fucking ridiculously hilarious!

breakingcups,

It really is the best part of this one.

Lokisan,

Or the fact that he catalogued himself and he’s not even number one. Like dude saw 204 shits before seeing himself in a mirror or something and he’s like: “The fuck is that? Dunno… That’s M205 for now”
