TDS - April 30, 2009: Large Hadron Collider

John Oliver visits the doomsday machine threatening to destroy our planet.

TDS has transitioned nicely from taking the piss out of the conservatives to taking the piss out of the media. John Oliver's segment was brilliant for showing the downside of Fair and Balanced, equal time, 50/50 reporting. Sometimes one side of the debate is just dumb and shouldn't be given any credence whatsoever.

That one guys rationality of 50/50 is just mindbogglingly dumb. That or the guy simply is self-delusional.

There actually is a chance that they could create a black hole. It's infinitesimally small, though I forget the exact number. But even if they DID create one, it would only exist for a fraction of a millionth of a second.

Makes me wonder how much money the high-school teacher has made with his 'the sky is falling' antics.

Yeah, the Cern gnome was awesome! Took it much better than the swedish politiican in the TDS socialism expose.

As for the highschool teacher, those guys are in DEMAND over in the U.S of A. The ability to accept such terrible logic is necessary in order to be able to say creationism, I mean I.D. can hold a candle to the body of evidence supporting our current understanding of life and the universe. Fortunately, such people are not in short supply.
