There's a rumour going around that there is a torrent of this.

The thing that is a bit scary, is if there was a universe before, which faded away to make room for our universe, is that all life in the previous universe has been wiped out, and ultimately all life in this universe will share the same fate.

Just watched it on yoo toob.

I have no clue what Penrose was on about.

I paraphrase Penrose: "Once the universe gets so big and is only made of photons, it will lose track of how big it is and big becomes the same as small, and so the cycle continues with another big bang."

What the fuck is that all about?
It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

Right then. After the first trillion years someone must promise to kill me, because I don't wanna die! :begging:

Yes, that.
There is the theory that black holes have the same properties as fundamental particles, but there was little explanation for what you just paraphrased. Anyone?

Easy.

Three letter word.

Anagram of "dog". (It's not "dgo", "gdo", "odg" or "ogd".)

When in doubt, insert said word up rectum and fart for answer.
