good things coming in threes
Apr. 10th, 2012 01:18 pmThese two memes and one comic appeared almost one after another on FB. So I can't quite see them without hearing a story inside my head. First, most people cannot get this blissed out without a bit of chemical assistance:

Of course dogs are different; this is not an exaggeration based on my experience. :-) Nor is it limited to doggies.

All of which kind of puts today's SMBC comic in an interesting light:

Though the philosopher in me must insist that Planck's constant only applies if we assume angels are material. Also, that the real question is whether a single angel can dance simultaneously on the points of multiple pins. In any event, I think humanities people exhibit a much better class of smugness. I like us.
