In the meanwhile we're having fun, having girlfriends, starting families, while you're busy making sure we have all we need.

ITT: we make up fictitious but plausible-sounding science quotes and spread them via facebook, etc, to see if we can get a couple to catch on

"We have wonderful machines now that can do twice the work of any man. I doubt it will be long before we have machines that can do twice the thinking." - Isaac Newton

"The first thing my brother said after I came down at Kittyhawk was, 'Now let's put one of these machines in space!' I guess we were both pretty full of ourselves at that moment. I replied, 'give it another fifty years.'" -Orville Wright

>mfw /sci/ doesn't understand the difference between fact and opinion

IT ALL MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW

Greentext your stories of academic dishonesty, /sci/.

>AP history exam
>class averages are always ~50%
>me and two friends decide on a system of cheating where we hold up fingers to correspond to the letter answers: 1 for A, two for B, etc.
>since there's three of us, majority rules, if we split three ways we just go with what we want
>since the teacher doesn't pay attention there's room for a little bit of commiserating
>things are fine until I get pissed that they both think Russia never occupied north america
>we basically have a whisper argument and the teacher looks up and sees me making huge motions with my hands and whisper yelling
>she thinks we're just talking and tells us to get back to the test
>mfw

Haha, then you're basing your dream on fucking what? Kurzweil's business of selling a book?

You do realize he is making money selling a book, while not really giving a fuck what happens in 50 years.
