I almost fell for the clickbait, expecting a picture of Jayne Mansfield’s massive mammaries.
Some thing to look down on and approve of at the same time.

I can picture her drumming her fingers on that taut, overfilled breast.
They really don’t pay attention when labeling or signing anymore.

The difference between science and fucking around is the record keeping.
Out of all the cool stuff that mythbusters ever shot on high speed camera, shooting a soccer ball at 60mph out of a truck traveling 60mph is one of my favorites
Just look at it. It is the most perfect visual representation of Newton’s 2nd law of physics I’ve ever seen. The ball, which was shot out of a CANNON, drops straight down. Two equal and opposite velocities completely canceling each other out, leaving the soccer ball to drop to the earth with a net velocity of 0. Sir issac newton would be proud to tears of this gif.
And yet this “myth” is nothing more than basic physics at work. A 10 year old with an interest in science could have told us this is possible. 60mph in one direction minus 60mph the exact opposite direction is 0. Basic.
But what makes this so frieken cool is the fact that they went through all the trouble to actually demonstrate the invisible laws that govern the way our universe works. To get this shot both the soccer ball and the truck had to be moving at the exact same speed. Real world variables make that extremely difficult to pull off. It took them hundreds of attempts to get it right. They went through all that trouble to “prove” something we have known as fact for hundreds of years. And we get this amazing gif to watch as a result.
Mythbusters is incredible. Science is incredible. And the fact that this experiment in physics can be used in science classes for years and years to come to help children learn about physics is incredible.
She’s sitting on the wrong side

Hi, I'm Emma. Won't you come on through.
Taking the guest's arm like a gentleman takes a lady's arm, Emma guides the guest to a large leather sofa that is angled to view both the fireplace and the pool. Disengaging from the guest's arm, Emma motions for the guest to sit, then sits closely beside. She places their hand on her warm smooth thigh, leaving her hand on top.
Emma makes idle chit chat, mostly just to hear her own sweet voice. She talks about the couch they are sitting on, the water in the pool outside, the warmth the fireplace gives the room, the coolness of the floor tiles, the way the light plays through the room during the day or night, whatever tickles her fancy at the moment. During this chit chat. Emma plays with the guests hand on her thigh, patting it, stroking it, tapping it, trapping it when the guest try’s to remove it, or moving their hand closer to her knee or hip.
When the host enters, Emma removes the guest's hand from her thigh, kisses it gently on the palm and places it on their own leg. She stands and crosses the room to intercept the host entwining their arms, seemingly begging for a kiss on her cheek or neck until she receives it. As the host sits in a chrome and white leather chair across from the couch, the host's hand moves to the small of Emma's back while she lightly perches on the small mahogany side table next to the host's chair. Emma now seems to be glowing, a slight satisfied smile on her lips. The host pats the spot where his hand was and asks Emma to bring in some of the lemonade from the kitchen. She stands quickly and taps away in her high heels to retrieve the refreshments. The sound of Emma's heels is continuous through her journey from the room to the kitchen and back to the room. Like she's keeping time. Upon her return, she places sweating glasses of lemonade in the hands of the host and the guest. As she approaches the host again, he suggests to her to 'go play'. Emma quickly pecks the host on the cheek, waves demurely to the guest and quickly is heard a tap, tap, pad, tap, pad, pad, as she takes off the heels on her way out of the room. During the opening of the conversation, Emma is heard, and seen, outside, jumping into the pool, naked.
