Scientists this week decoded the first confirmed alien transmission from outer space. Here is the text of the message that they decoded:

"This really works! Just send 5*10^50 atoms of hydrogen to each of the five star systems listed below. Then, add your own system to the top of the list, delete the system at the bottom, and send out copies of this message to 100 other solar systems. If you follow these instructions, within 0.25 of a galactic rotation you are guaranteed to receive enough hydrogen in return to power your civilization until entropy reaches its maximum!"

Reposted plea for help - TG

I went to buy our TG tickets on Sunday (I've been meaning to do it all week, aware they sell out fast) only to find out they sold out on Saturday.

Please can anyone help?

We've bought our costumes¹ and everything, and are really letting down the person we were going as a costume 'team' with.

Yes, I know, I'm a fucking muppet and we should have done it days ago. I kept forgetting, and only have myself to blame. Now I'm letting other people down too. I KNOW it's my own stupid fault, but if ANYONE can help in any way to find tickets for Mark and I I would be SO grateful. email is emmelinemay[at]gmail[dot]com if you can help.


[1] - we've actually managed to cancel Mark's order for his, as partypacks.co.uk have the BEST customer service of any website I've ever used ever - someone replied to our email at 11pm on a Sunday night o_O If we manage to get tickets, they can also courier us the stuff, so we know we should be able to re-order it if we do manage to find tickets.

SORTED!!! THANK YOU MYSTERY BENEFACTOR!!! BEER AND KISSES COMING YOUR WAY!!!!!!!!!!

Down with this sort of thing

careful now.

That REALLY makes me wish I'd not been too hungover to get our of bed before 11 remembered to set my alarm early enough to go to the anti-scientology demo yesterday.

They rickrolled¹ The scientologists.

It was like the internet made physical, but for a good cause...

I'm SO going to the next one, with this banner:
