Youth Slang

[Stefan Ram]

A crackpot came to a physic professor. "Master," he exclaimed,
"Einstein's theory of relativity is a deception! If time can
truly bend, why can I not simply bend it back to make my toast
rise more quickly?"

The prof looked at the crackpot and uttered a single word: "Dude!".

At that moment, the crackpot was enlightened. He saw clearly
that the theory of relativity had been rigorously tested and
confirmed through countless experiments and observations over the
course of a hundred years with consistently accurate predictions
in scenarios ranging from GPS systems to particle accelerators.

If ever you had any inkling of the plot, I fear it has just eluded you.

Well, "youths" is used. Many Americans, on seeing the word, will start
chuckling thinking about the scene in "My Cousin Vinny".

Not only Americans. Great movie.

More likely it eluded whatever ChatBot St*f*n was using.

Or the ChatBot that is using St*f*n. He seems to have been assimilated.

The prof looked at the crackpot and uttered: "Anrindam! Get out, before
I shove this projectile up your black hole."
The crackpot was unenlightened, and continued spouting the same nonsense
in some other newsgroup.
