I was having fun moving the bar back n' forth until I noticed the 7 meter earthworm. Where in the fuck is there a 7 meter earthworm?

[Headspace]

The scale is a lie.

[Headspace]

I feel like it needed to finish with a sarcastic "dat ass" or "xbox"

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

[Slapper]

History channel said there was a 22ft Earthworm

[wipers]

Reminds me of a Simpsons intro.

545,883,364,800,000,000,000,000 miles in width, or 945,641,322,762,852,352,000,000,000,000,000,000,00 0,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Planck lengths. That stuff about the stars is cool, like whats been posted in the RIT and LHC threads about relative sizes of planets and stars.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_Gippsland_earthworm
Though this specific worm usually only reaches 3m, the See Also section of the article mentions the 7 m (22 ft) worm in question.

There's also mention of it on this page under Food: http://lawrencehallofscience.org/fos...arthworms.html

A few more pages that mention it:

http://surferjerry.com/creatures/gia...can-earthworm/

Microchaetus rappi would be the genus + species I guess, or just a name, I don't really know, just wanted to throw in that extra bit of info. Sadly no wikipedia page, but useful for further googling.

It seems the 7 m specimen was a bit of an anomaly but 20 ft seems to be about normal.


Also, fuck the universe for being so goddam big. Enough is enough, guy. Gotta go making people feel small and insignificant, damn.

[Vendog]

That was amazing.

[Epical]

Wow, that's truly incredible...

[Blarg]

wow, i cant believe god created all that

[Plow]

I'm confused, I thought current estimations on the maximum size of the universe were capped at like 30 billion light years, wouldn't 90+ imply it's traveling outward at faster than the speed of light?


edit: lol billion not million

[Sol-Blackguy]

Obvious troll... etc... etc...

[Kryssan]

Surprised no comments from Miz yet, must be an off day.

[Chicomagiko]

He'll get to it in a few hours or so. He's probably asleep.
