Physics Nerds Rap About the LHC
Engadget has pointed out a small band of people even we can consider nerdy that decided to cut loose and demo CERN's fancy new toy, the Large Hadron Collider. The resulting music video is certainly enough to "rock you in the head," and maybe even enough to cause a rip in space-time. Between Alpinekat and Dr Spatzo, I think my iPod just got a new entry.
Yo, Kidz in da hood, "rap" is 3/4s of "crap".
I thought the cameo by MC Steven Hawking was great...
The lead rapper? You mean ALICE, right? The one that looks at collisions of lead ions.
Ask me about repetitive DNA
In other news, the RIAA today sent a cease and desist notice to Slashdot for linking an mp3.
Given that LHC will create a black hole that will cause a time loop, the amount of time wasted by these guys will loop over and over, meaning they have wasted an infinite amount of time with this video. That pisses me off.
And in future news, a large contingent of nerds world wide cried out in joy as the Large Hadron Collider was turned on today.
Surprising to some people, they managed to create a miniature black hole. However, LHC lead scientists informed us that it only lasted for 16 seconds after being created inside RIAA headquaters, and completely dissapated after having absorbed it.
We were unable to reach the RIAA for comments.
We do not live in the 21st century. We live in the 20 second century.
Eminem is dead, he's locked in my basement! (Ha-ha!)

The only artistic liberty I spotted is that it claims we should spot the Higgs boson straight away which is wishful thinking
They should yell to that machine: "Will the real Higgs boson please stand up?"

"Hey, baby. Wanna see my heavy particles?"
"Hey, no, how you doin? Wanna see my large hadron collider?"
"Hey, baby. Wanna go in the back and see...the injection apparatus?"
"Hey, baby. Wanna see my microscopic object that only lasts a nanosecond before it goes away? Oh, wait. That came out wrong."
(-1: Post disagrees with my already-settled worldview) is not a valid mod option.
An example of a through process...
I read the title.
"Why would nerds rap in the first place?"
They already aren't cool so maybe it was contamination of the water supply.
"And why would they be rapping about Light's Hope Chapel?"
LOL WAT?
And no, I will NOT turn in my geek badge.
You'd think Stephen Hawking would be really busy, but somehow they got him to do the opening and closing voiceover. Glad to see he's got time for some fun too.
