I do love my balls. You can love my balls too if you want.


Nailed it - if you love your balls - Earth is a ball + the planets are balls - its the cosmic dance of the balls!

Btw - I love your avatar - a girl wearing a mask - hmm i wonder what your hiding.....

you drop half a slinky and it springs part of the way back up. but it isnt a spring.

for the life of me i can not understand how someone could be so oblivious to this.

when you drop half of a slinky, it is under constant tension until you drop the other half, tension that is only eliminated when the other half of the slinky catches the bottom half.


but the funny thing about all of this is it has nothing to do with gravity or any other explanation of why things fall, at all. in no way does that video prove or disprove flat earth. whatever force there is that makes things fall also causes this effect, gravity or anything else. The ONLY force at play is card sultan's inability to say he was wrong, he only has the power to double and triple down.

personally i think that for a year plus card has just been smoothly weaving back and forth between what he actually believes and trolling, why? because when you're this universally not respected what's the difference? No one believes you if you're earnest, no one believes you if you say 2+2=5.

You're just comparing to spring from the start point to the end point - but if you take any particular point of time along that continuous action, the spring is still rigid at that point and applying its tension throughout it's entire length.


You and physics really aren't friends, huh? Really got off on the wrong foot at some point and it just went downhill from there.
So hey, out of curiosity, do you have an example of some object that's NOT rigid? So at any particular point in time the object would have to be not static. In other words, it would have to be moving while time itself isn't.

not rigid but still solid - sure a bowl of jello is not a solid rigid object like an ice cube.
Although a circle jerk troller like yourself wouldn't surprise me if they suggested something so retarded as they were the same thing cause there both made of water.
That's all you do is shift the goalposts and think your clever. Kinda what Astro-priests do, you probably worship the controlled media that's safe for your mediocre mind.

By your definition a bowl of jello is totally rigid. As long as you don't touch it, it will hold the same shape.
