World News

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH*]

Not really world but we were almost spared another horrible Transformers movie directed by Micheal Bay...

Air conditioners, are, like, the new age weapon, man.

• [...]two brothers surnamed Mak, approached Bay and demanded the equivalent of $12,900, according to a police spokeswoman. It was unclear why they demanded the money[...]
  

"Hey Mak Won*?"
"Whaddup Mak Tu*?"
"Michael Bay is in town, I think we should exhort him to give us some money."
"How much, though? A million? TWO million?"
"No... Today we are kings. Today we ask for... $12,900"
"Awwww goddamit Mak Won, this is about that realistic perv-doll again isn't it?"
*audience laughter and applause as Mak Won winks at the camera*

*Given names are purely hypothetical


Also, I can't believe that even during a rant about an attack, Bay is likely obliged to name drop some sponsors. The part about the Nike shoes sounds like something out of The Onion.

"The world's first completely preserved adult hominid skull from the
early Pleistocene era looks surprisingly different from other skulls of
the same era, yielding a remarkable insight: Man’s early ancestors
appeared as physically diverse as humans do today, researchers said, and
our family tree has perhaps fewer branches than today's schoolbooks
teach."

That awkward moment when you realise that several different ancient species are actually all the same.

Joking aside, this is what science has always been and what science will always likely be in the future.

1. Have a theory
   
2. Present theory
   
3. Theory widely accepted as the evidence is sound
   
4. New research debunks old theory and new one takes its place
   
5. Rinse and repeat

I did sneaky crap like that in debate all the time. I have me some awards.

I can totally see you becoming a lawyer specialising in unearthing loopholes.
