LHC can't create black holes. The energy and mass involved isn't sufficient.

Yeah notice they didn't say it couldn't open a portal to a monster realm. Clever...

That's exactly what someone who built a black hole creating machine would say.

What's the point, then?

I‘m not saying the LHC messed up everything but... *points at stuff*

I think there's something very important to understand about this

Yes indeed. We are smashing particles and much of what is going on is still unknown. I love the mystery and the science.

Of course it won't. But we're still on to you, CERN. You'll never get the 5100!

I remember seeing one nut saying the LHC would make a gap in the van allen belt for Niburu to come and invade.

Good luck. Now if we could figure out what exactly is mediating the effect of mass via the Higgs Boson then we might be onto something.

Fuck! OK lads, we need to start building a bigger collider. Recon we should build it on the 49°N parallel, should be long enough.

Yeah. Make it go around the entire earth at that Latitude. The energy needs would be great but Solar, Wind and Hydrothermal could help.

Wait, why is this coming up again? I thought people got over this years ago...?

And I thought people accepted the world is round hundreds of years ago, but here we are in 2018.

Nope, it's banana shaped. Sir Bedevere said so. Also if it wasn't then why are bananas the perfect scale?
