You have written enough nonsense on the forum that others have had to read that this is just karma Phil.

Plus.... The topic name kinda is a clue.

Now I'm just disconbobulated

[silly_me]

there's a lot of nothingness in space... where no one can hear you scream.

Nature abhors a vacuum, but as for nurture, well, personally, my mom made me vacuum a lot.

[Vastet]

That phrase never made sense to me. The vast majority of nature is a vacuum. Not a perfect vacuum of course, but still.

According to Tom Batiuk (in a Funky Winkerbean strip), if you take a Hoover and put it out in a field, eventually the effects of weather will cause it to completely disintegrate, proving the statement.  Of course, the real source is probably Aristotle, who made a lot of well-founded statements that turned out not to be the case.  Even Descartes disbelieved in vacuum.  I think it really wasn't until the Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887 that the true vacuity of the vacuum was finally demonstrated (positively or negatively, depending on your definition of "vacuity").

Also, the fact that a thread about nothing can generate over ten replies might say something about the nature of some humans.

Just think at the replies a thread called "something" would have gotten

[Zarchne]

Maybe fewer.  Unspecified something is not necessarily more interesting than nothing.  (Is what she said.)

[Phil M]

I always prefer a little bit of something rather than a lot of nothing
