- civilizedevil, on 11/07/2009, -0/+284A baguette from the future?
- PeanutCheeseBar, on 11/06/2009, -0/+261Almost sounds like something from The Onion.
- nfti, on 11/07/2009, -0/+14311/5/09 Never Baguette
- Azoruk, on 11/06/2009, -4/+117"'Nobody knows how it got there. The best guess is that it was dropped by a bird, either that or it was thrown out of a passing aeroplane'"
lmao - WahSuppDude, on 11/07/2009, -0/+106This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a baguette. - seltaeb4, on 11/07/2009, -1/+106Are you suggesting that baguettes are migratory?
- DamnMan, on 11/07/2009, -2/+103http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/13/science/space/13 ...
Yeah... Those 2 physicist dudes are sounding a little less crazy every day. - redxii, on 11/07/2009, -1/+97The LHC is going to keep being stalled under mysterious circumstances until December 2012.
- Rhydeble, on 11/07/2009, -2/+90That's way too heavy for one bird.
Maybe if there were two birds that carried it together. - ericthesalmon, on 11/07/2009, -1/+77More evidence for the theory that all possible universes involve hilarious failure for the LHC.
(NYT link above.)
The next failure will be due to a heated game of Jenga. - bs0l, on 11/07/2009, -1/+75ITS NOT MEANT TO RUN THE FUTURE DOESN'T WANT IT
- hawkspur, on 11/07/2009, -1/+74An African swallow could maybe do it.
- SoCalDissident, on 11/06/2009, -0/+67"“The best guess is that it was dropped by a bird, either that or it was thrown out of a passing aeroplane.”
"an electrical connection inside one of eight buildings"
Something doesn't add up; seems like it'd be pretty hard to toss a piece of bread from an airplane into a building... - TheRealHonkHonk, on 11/07/2009, -0/+62Im starting to think so.
- Soniti, on 11/07/2009, -0/+52WE HAVE TO GO BACK KATE
- spookyttws, on 11/07/2009, -1/+51So we can blame the French?
Also, with a 4 billion dollar machine that is meant to create miniature black holes and operate at absolute zero- isn't there some system in place to keep birds and/or debits from passing aeroplanes out ? I'm thinking someone left their lunch sitting around and they're looking to pass the blame. - one504, on 11/07/2009, -0/+46I told you kids to keep the windows rolled up in the aeroplane!
- diggB, on 11/07/2009, -0/+41Dough!
- burketo, on 11/07/2009, -0/+38It's not a question of where he grips it. It's a simple question of weight ratios!
- palehorse864, on 11/07/2009, -0/+38Baguette? Someone is getting "le fired" :)
- Someb0dy, on 11/07/2009, -3/+39The most powerful machine in the world stopped by a crumb of bread.
Sure sounds safe to operate. - anaclagon, on 11/07/2009, -0/+33It could grip it by the crust.
- RMoore08, on 11/07/2009, -2/+35Not at all, it could be carried!
- Siskoraban, on 11/07/2009, -0/+32It's not impossible. I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home, they're not much bigger than two meters.
- Eschewy, on 11/07/2009, -0/+32I assume the baguette was on the French side of the LHC, so I'm just waiting for some Swiss cheese to gum up the works on the other side of the border.
- Mister8, on 11/07/2009, -0/+32Great Scott!
- inactive, on 11/07/2009, -0/+28These Onion articles get me every time. Good one!
- Heiliger, on 11/07/2009, -0/+28Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the baguette as it lay in the cooling unit was "Oh no, not again." Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the baguette had thought that, we would know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now.
- jeuce6, on 11/07/2009, -0/+27But then the African swallow's not migratory...
- Azadude, on 11/07/2009, -0/+26What if there were 4 birds, all carrying the baguette on a line?
- TheObviousChild, on 11/07/2009, -0/+25Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?
Am I right? - cawfee, on 11/07/2009, -0/+22LHC Implodes, Mankind Extinct; Advanced Alien Race determined pastry in the accelerator as cause for the tragedy, produces comedy play to immortalize lack of legacy of the human civilization.
- buckrogers1965, on 11/07/2009, -0/+21Come with me if you want to live.
*tosses baguette to disable skynet* - silverchrysalis, on 11/07/2009, -0/+19RIP Douglas Adams, he couldn't have written it funnier.
- cyrix, on 11/07/2009, -0/+18WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT!!!
- seltaeb4, on 11/07/2009, -0/+17But the baguette wouldn't even have been baked yet. How can it exist in our time?
- DephexTwin, on 11/07/2009, -0/+15I heard they ARE going to fire the bird.
- asternic, on 11/07/2009, -0/+14It seems unemployment forced Homer Simpson move to Europe
- Zeigy, on 11/07/2009, -1/+15Well, the LHC from the future can only delay the inevitable since if it succeeds in preventing the discovery of the Higgs Boson then it will cease to exist in the future thus allowing the experiment to continue which would make the LHC from the future come back into existence only to be too late to stop the discovery of the Higgs-boson in time.
- battmutler, on 11/08/2009, -0/+12A five-ounce bird could not carry a one-pound baguette!
- inactive, on 11/07/2009, -0/+12AGAN? That is the second time in 3 days that a baguette has shut it down! (Because I am sure that atomicpoet would not have posted this after seeing it on the front page on Thursday, right? And there is NO WAY that the dupe feature didn't catch the word baguette.)
- PeanutCheeseBar, on 11/06/2009, -1/+13Looks like this guy lost one of his slippers:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mwxE7Ky5hs - chongqingking, on 11/07/2009, -2/+14blame the ***** french... the baguette must have came from their side.
- matrixbinarycod, on 11/07/2009, -1/+13As long as no bacon was wasted its fine
- Jaime2000, on 11/07/2009, -0/+12Your daughter marries a black man!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN0WBv0Omgs - sab0tage, on 11/07/2009, -0/+12“Nobody knows how it got there,” she told The Times. “The best guess is that it was dropped by a bird, either that or it was thrown out of a passing aeroplane.”
I think a Frenchman put it there! - GorfTron, on 11/07/2009, -1/+13This will make more sense after it rains baguettes all over the planet.
- erikvonvicious, on 11/07/2009, -0/+11actually in dollars its 6.6b
- inactive, on 11/07/2009, -1/+12I'm seriously starting to believe that this ***** is never going to run.
