4) Hitchcock movies.

everything by david lynch, but mostly inland empire and lost highway

Yes and yes. Wormers have some good taste in movies. My 10 favourites:

1. The Birds
2. Mulholland Dr.
3. Pulp Fiction
4. Milk & Money (1996)
5. Kill Bill (either Vol. 1 or both together)
6. Bad Taste
7. Frenzy
8. Sin City
9. Fight Club
10. Hannibal

I've been working through a list of over 100 movies I want to see. The best I've seen lately is Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead.

Yeah I uh kinda forgot about this place somehow. :P

All I know is that it doesn't look like it's worth that much. And supposedly the prices at the similar GetSatisfaction start at $1200/month (you can see it on the pricing page if you make your browser window narrow, haha!)

This just continues a theme that's popped into my mind a lot this year. The house prices in my city... $600/year for pay TV just to get coverage of your favourite sport... $700 phones... hundreds of $$$ for DLC in a single PC game, sometimes even before the game is released. Probably somewhere some wise person said "I admire you when you say money isn't everything, so give yours to me."

Continuing with the space idea, is the call to action a stomach full of empty space begging for some food?

The call to action would be the vacuum saying "Hi everyone, I'm a vacuum. Please expand into me!" Or maybe it's the quantum vacuum fluctuation, but then there was never really any nothing in the first place. :P

Space?

Spoiler! View
Nothing would be a vacuum, so things expand into it. The last line describes length contraction.

Here's another one. What's this riddle about?

The more you use, the more you have
And yet you always have the same number.
At least until the set from Belgium tears you asunder.

What's wrong with this picture? What item is wrong which course should not be there? :D

I was gonna say the lamp since cats have excellent night vision, but then I saw in the video there's a human living there too. So I dunno, I'm stumped.

Bloopy - Author of blamethepixel.com

That was ZoGgEr! I was just user #4 to sign up and eventually became an admin there. I did 'author' some of the pages there, but wasn't one of the ones who did a significant amount of programming.

I always liked the history of which Wormers came up with which schemes. One day I should put some of the info from my website back online.

Cool, could be a good place to launch a worm farming business from!

If you just explained the last bit, you are saying almost exactly the same thing I did! That's like me saying you were wrong in your answer because it wasn't a nice space shuttle, but the last space shuttle :)

But why would you actually have to have something change from violet to red light or vice versa, just for you to know how far away from each other they are in the spectrum? Can't you just look at the spectrum regardless? If it's that difficult, I could try wording it "A shift from one to the other reveals how far away."  :-\

Bloopy, sure I did, they are far apart on the visible spectrum, the difference would be one in wave length 340 nm for red and 750nm for violet (if I recall correctly).

Nope, I'm telling you this part is still unsolved! You've got that they look like they belong together, but they're not because they're at opposite ends of the visible spectrum.

"A change from one to the other reveals how far away."

red light and violet light (red light is the friend of infrared as they are close together in terms of energy, violet is totally gay, the colours share similaries with regards to RGB values, but they are far apart in the visible spectrum)

Correctamundo! Though you didn't explain the change from one to the other part.

Quote from: DarkOne on October 09, 2014, 10:55 PM
Infrared isn't really visible either!

The riddle just says the two look like they belong together. It never said anything about the hot friend having any appearance whatsoever.

What about photons of different wave lengths? Light is one part of the spectrum (rainbow spectrum, totally gay!), the other's friend could be infrared (totally hot) and the other side of the spectrum would be X-rays and gamma rays. The distance would be one of energy level, but the fact that they're all electromagnetic waves suggests they belong together.

Almost there! You got the hot part right, but x-rays and gamma rays don't look like... well, anything. Except perhaps Kevin Bacon in Hollow Man.
