Reports indicate that the data was derived from a drunken 3 a.m. experiment by a few LHC scientists, where they decided to smash a bunch of particles together and see what happened. The result was an astounding look into what is known as the multiverse, a web of divergent realities tangentially related to our own, often with very minor and inconsequential alterations. \u201cOut of the billions of multiverses we detected, we found 2,340 where Gore was president, 134 where Hitler still ruled the world as a brain in a jar, and 45 where NBC\u2019s The Slap ran for 12 Emmy-nominated seasons,\u201d said Mark Shapiro of the LHC\u2019s research division. \u201cHowever, we were only able to find one universe where you were not a gigantic asshole. Maybe not a decent human being, but you weren\u2019t walking around with a giant sign that says \u2018look at me I\u2019m just a big floppy donkey dick of a person,\u2019 and that is a remarkable find.\u201d \u201cIt was one of those moments where everybody had to stop and pinch themselves,\u201d said Kerrigan. \u201cIt\u2019s still all theoretical, and it may be hundreds of years before we are capable of repairing you emotionally enough to make people not prefer getting their dicks caught in a hornet\u2019s nest over spending a minute talking to you, but today, we now know it is theoretically possible. The dream, as it was, is alive.\u201d Because you are such an asshole to everyone that you can\u2019t even pick up your phone when someone calls, you were unavailable for comment at this time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Flip Flipoutski Jubilance swept across the world as researchers at the newly reopened Large Hadron Collider discovered a parallel universe where you are not such a massive prick to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":157,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[2,4],"tags":[9,33,63,72],"class_list":["post-156","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local","category-science-technology","tag-asshole","tag-data","tag-large-hadron-collider","tag-parallel-universe","has_thumb"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hoosierflipside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/asshole.png?fit=824%2C544&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7b5Hd-2w","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":242,"url":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/2016\/01\/14\/eccentric-billionaire-plans-first-water-park-on-mars\/","url_meta":{"origin":156,"position":0},"title":"Eccentric Billionaire Plans First Water Park on Mars","author":"Hoosier Flipside","date":"January 14, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"By: Mike \u201cMC Grandmaster DJ Kool\u201d Jones SAN FRANCISCO, CA \u2013 Following the recent discovery of liquid water on Mars, eccentric billionaire Mellon Husk unveiled plans for his next business venture: a water park on the red planet\u2019s surface. \u201cUpon learning of the discovery of water on Mars, I put\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Science &amp; Technology&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Science &amp; Technology","link":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/category\/science-technology\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hoosierflipside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/WaterparkMars.jpg?fit=553%2C430&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hoosierflipside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/WaterparkMars.jpg?fit=553%2C430&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hoosierflipside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/WaterparkMars.jpg?fit=553%2C430&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x"},"classes":[]},{"id":145,"url":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/2015\/08\/22\/frustrated-lonely-god-creates-universe-of-kittens\/","url_meta":{"origin":156,"position":1},"title":"Frustrated, Lonely God Creates Universe of Kittens","author":"Hoosier Flipside","date":"August 22, 2015","format":false,"excerpt":"By: Bismo Falcor In a shocking development, rumors have surfaced that God has created an entirely separate universe populated entirely by kittens just to escape his regretted human race.
