Sunspot Grows to 20 Times Size of Earth
TheHedgehog writes "A sunspot group aimed squarely at Earth has grown to 20 times the size of our planet and has the potential to unleash a major solar storm. 'The implications of this spot have scientists on the edge of their seats,' NASA said in a statement Friday. 'If the active region generates coronal mass ejections (CMEs), massive explosions with a potential force of a billion megaton bombs, it will be a fairly direct hit to Earth and its satellites and power grids.'"
Not at all, I just don't want to hurt your feelings any more than I already have!
A baby-step closer! C'mon.. you can work it out!
I already have worked it out, you're crying because I used your favorite joke.
This is a verbal beating? Heh. "You're crying! Take that!" Like a poor marksman, you keep... missssssing... the... target.
What a resounding counter-attack! How will I ever gain the upper-hand against someone who declares that I'm completely missing the target. It's a bullet-proof plan for Slashdot thread dominance!
Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.
"I already have worked it out, you're crying because I used your favorite joke."
Wrong!
" How will I ever gain the upper-hand against someone who declares that I'm completely missing the target."
You could start by not missing the target and figure out what really caused me to respond!
"Truly, you have a dizzying intellect."
I think that says more about you than it does me.
"Derp de derp."
"I already have worked it out, you're crying because I used your favorite joke."
Wrong!
Oh, I'm pretty sure I'm right.
"How will I ever gain the upper-hand against someone who declares that I'm completely missing the target."
You could start by not missing the target and figure out what really caused me to respond!
Oh my god, that was your best comeback ever.
"Truly, you have a dizzying intellect."
I think that says more about you than it does me.
I wonder how many people are snickering at your reply to that. I know I am.
