- anderzole, on 10/11/2008, -12/+298if I had a dollar for every time I brought my 4d glasses to a 3d movie..
- michaelrsa, on 10/11/2008, -3/+233Man I hate when I accidentally bring my 5-D glasses to a movie, which are basically LSD soaked contacts.
- BoneheadFarker, on 10/11/2008, -21/+210For those who get it, yes...
- reyesz, on 10/11/2008, -15/+174yes it is funny because in 4D you can see the start and end of everything
- RedSepher, on 10/11/2008, -2/+124If I had a quarter every time I said "If I had a nickle", I'd have 5 times the theoretical money
- scotishstriker, on 10/11/2008, -90/+201no offense but, was the comic supposed to be funny?
- Danby123, on 10/11/2008, -2/+78If I had 500 dollars I'd buy myself a go cart.
- Madrick, on 10/11/2008, -3/+77I HAVE TAKEN OFFENSE. YOUR COMMENT IS OFFENSIVE.
- DontEatTheFish, on 10/11/2008, -6/+76then what?
you'd be bankrupt? - myFriendDerrik, on 10/11/2008, -1/+71False! If you had 4d glasses you wouldn't be investing in the dollar.
- LongShlong, on 10/11/2008, -8/+58Yes. Comedy usually comes in the form of the knowledge or grasp of a certain subject represented in a satirical manner. According to those guidelines, teh funnay is absent for you.
- BedPost, on 10/11/2008, -16/+63I got it. I didn't laugh.
- DryCat, on 10/11/2008, -5/+44This hypothesizes that the fourth dimension is time, but on this Carl Sagan show I watched he said that there could be fourth physical dimension. We just can't see it cause we're 3D creatures.
If you ascribe to that theory than this comic is even less funny. - unitedkronos, on 10/11/2008, -1/+31Should have gone to Specsavers.
- kevman459, on 10/11/2008, -2/+29Photobucket? Seriously?
Here's a link to the comic page, but not this particular one.
http://www.gocomics.com/brewsterrockit/ - KMartSheriff, on 10/11/2008, -0/+27PREPARE TO RECEIVE A HARSHLY WORDED LETTER.
- OneLess, on 10/11/2008, -0/+21No, there is a fourth spatial dimension: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_dimension
- Kajarago, on 10/11/2008, -5/+24The first 3 dimensions are space...the fourth is time.
- vat0r, on 10/11/2008, -8/+26That depends on whether you count the fourth dimension as space or time.
- vspazv, on 10/11/2008, -0/+17Have you seen the € and £ over the last week? They're dropping like rocks.
- xXIrsotehkewlXx, on 10/11/2008, -0/+17If I had a million dollars I would buy your love.
- Alias1431, on 10/11/2008, -4/+18Donnie Darko.
- wontstoptalking, on 10/11/2008, -3/+17I once forgot to bring my pet shark to the Nascar meeting. Boy, was my face red!
- dawpa2000, on 10/12/2008, -0/+13THIS SAID LETTER SHALL BE WRITTEN AND DELIVERED TO YOU WITH THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE.
- yaddayaddayoda, on 10/11/2008, -0/+12But not a real green dress
that's cruel - Kakumeikeahi, on 10/11/2008, -3/+15I wish I had a trillion dollars anytime my bank went bankrupt.
Wait, we lost a trillion. - CATSCEO2, on 10/11/2008, -1/+12I think the comic refers to the 4th dimension as a dimension of time, not space.
- kingofkolt, on 10/11/2008, -1/+11@Danby: If you had any of the 500 left over, I hope you would put flames on it.
- OneLess, on 10/11/2008, -0/+10That's what I was getting at- the 4th dimension isn't necessarily time.
- grizzlybrice, on 10/11/2008, -5/+15BOOM HEADSHOT!
- Rhendal, on 10/11/2008, -0/+9@OneLess
In the heading of that article it says "This extra dimension may be interpreted either as time, or as a literal fourth dimension of space, a fourth spatial dimension."
So you're both right. - ShoggothDreams, on 10/11/2008, -0/+8That is becoming a problem. Some webcomics and photographers are not getting ANY recognition, especially when individual strips are posted on Flickr or even on commercial sites that try to claim credit for the comic! (There had been a big bruhaha a while back, here on Digg, when the stolen comic was getting more Diggs than the reposted link to the actual creator's site!) I feel bad enough when I link to an image for a Digg post, while still retaining the site's address.
- linagee, on 10/11/2008, -0/+8You'd lend 90% of it back out but claim you still had the entire dollar in your account?
- vspazv, on 10/12/2008, -0/+8@werries
I have the keyboard shortcuts memorized from work.
alt+0128=€
and
alt+0163=£ - glutamate, on 10/11/2008, -1/+9Yes.
It's also a semantic problem.
I ascribe to the idea that time is a parameter. Dimensions refer to physical space. Of course, it's merely a label, but I believe it's ignorant to label time the 4th dimension, assuming that nothing exists spatially outside the third. - andoru, on 10/11/2008, -0/+8It would be funnier if the 4-d glasses were actually cubes instead of squares.
- joearchy, on 10/12/2008, -0/+8@vspazv
which make§ you win the internet for today - tayzlord, on 10/11/2008, -21/+28that wasnt funny...
- hagfish70, on 10/11/2008, -3/+10No.
- kawaiirobo, on 10/11/2008, -1/+8why is everyone dressed alike?
- DotGet, on 10/12/2008, -1/+8I hear you, man. Last time that happened to me, I carried on a conversation with a girl who had (my real thoughts at the time) "the face of an intergalactic traveller". I remember exactly how I saw her - she ad a perfectly symmetrical face, with little moving red dots all over it, as if I was looking at it through a kaliedescope. I questioned this revelation at first, but when I suggested to her that she looked like she was from... 'here. you know, this uh, planet', she confessed and said she was at the movies to study our form of entertainment. I forgot where I was and what I was doing so I just kept talking, though I wasn't really comprehending half of what she said.
She eventually left with her friends, who I could only assume were also travelers of space and time. Instead of just walking through the door like everybody else, a hole in reality ripped apart and they walked through it... it's kind of impossible to explain how it looked, really. I knew what I had just seen must have been not real, but I couldn't remember exactly why. I never saw the movie. In fact, I just walked outside and lied down on a bench and watched the clouds for a couple hours, waiting for a grasp on the world to return to me. Every once in a while I would just survey the area to see if any of it made sense yet. I eventually came to the conclusion that the 'space girl' was just some chick who was incredibly entertained by my delusion.
And in case you were wondering, 5 hits. I bought it from a guy who'd just gotten finished putting ink on the blotters. Pefectly wasted $40, I'd say. I don't know why I even decided to go to the movies in the first place, and I don't remember buying the ticket :
I suppose the lesson would be that acid and public places don't mix. But imo, the real lesson is to only do low doses. It's fun and carefree that way - and you're still sane. Go higher and it just gets... weird. - bdfariello, on 10/11/2008, -0/+6FTWikipediaA:
"To avoid confusion with the more common Einsteinian notion of time being the fourth dimension, however, the use of this spatial interpretation should be stated at the outset."
Since it's not explicitly stated to be the fourth spatial dimension, it's assumed that the fourth dimension is time. - Kajarago, on 10/11/2008, -6/+12You didn't get it.
- kylethompson1, on 10/11/2008, -2/+8Well maybe nobody else did, but I thought it was funny.
- USAOwnz, on 10/11/2008, -1/+6Time is the 4th dimension.
- spencen66, on 10/11/2008, -3/+8congrats, you are not a nerd
- juckman, on 10/11/2008, -0/+5That sounds unbearably hilarious...
- Hyperion1144, on 10/11/2008, -1/+6We call in the "4th" dimension because that is what we chose to call it. We could call it the "pink rainbow clown car" dimension and it wouldn't matter. What matters are the characteristics we ascribe to it, and that we all mostly agree to what those characteristics are. Just like the definition for any other word or phrase in any other language.
i.e.: "Would not a rose by any other name smell as sweet?"
The point is, time is some dimension or another, irregardless of the existence of extra physical dimensions or not. We just happen to to label the 4th cause it was the 4th one we thought of, after the first 3. What does it matter what number we give to what dimension? We give them those numbers out of convenience, and because most of us have mutually agreed to what each dimension's number refers to. - DrankyDrank, on 10/11/2008, -4/+9Exactly I got the joke right away... The ***** is just not funny.
- pak314, on 10/11/2008, -7/+12Yup, funny like Garfield or Peanuts.
