Ah much better this week and keeping up with current events, hehe.

Won't somebody please think of the children?!?!

gigauni · 1 year ago

Isn't that from "Contact" starring by Jodie Foster?

Chou · 1 year ago

I love it! 11/10!!!

Dr.K · 1 year ago

I never thought I'd see a resonance magnification, much less create one.

Invisafehz · 1 year ago

Carpenter ants... Gotta love em. :)

John · 1 year ago

I think this shows us your position on the hadron colider...excuse me large hadron colider...love the comic been a fan for a while

We're all gonna die in a mini-black hole!

John · 1 year ago

My money is on the large black hole

psychonut · 1 year ago

Yet another one that's going up in my classroom. Thanks Off!

Pho3nix · 1 year ago

Finally! a comic which we understand!

4/5

Do I sense racial commentary in the respective carapace colors of the picketing ants and the technician ants?

Off · 1 year ago

Emphatically, no. Though the two different species of ant were intentionally used in the comic, no racial undertones should be inferred.

mjgorman · 1 year ago

Are there any undertones to the fact that the black ants don't wear pants, or is that just a personal decision on their part?

Mojo · 1 year ago

Everyone knows science is done better without pants.

B.Sc. · 1 year ago

As a biology major I can attests to the truth of this.

Jake_I · 1 year ago

Well I must say that little black ants, in my experience, are indeed smarter. They always seem to be all over my ankle before I detect their presence. They may however, be more reckless, as is shown here.

Zavion · 1 year ago

The different colors of ants are different species, not races or breeds of the same animal. In most of North America black ants are more docile and, while larger, weaker than the red ants who are smaller and more aggressive. In a sense, the color choices are probably due that fact, and shouldn't be taken to imply human racism.

Jake_I · 1 year ago

Who said anything about human racism?

Jetti · 1 year ago

Hahaha! This is cute in a way.
Great work as always! Haha!

not quite...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Hadron_Collider

Yojimbo · 1 year ago

So what you're trying to say is that so long as we don't stand underneath the Large Hadron Collider while it's bright and sunny out, we'll be fine?

Davide · 1 year ago

I for one eagerly await for our combine overlords to bust out from the LHC.

Haven't you ever seen Howard the Duck?!?!?!?

Sometimes this comic fails to make sense. This is not one of those times. Yes, this was a play on the comment bubble from "last week." No, I didnt read it all before posting this. No, I dont actually expect anyone to read it. But kudos on making it this far. Thanks for the bitchen strip!

It says 'Hive Labs' on the keycard.

Surely that should be 'Nest Labs'?

Parky · 1 year ago

Nuh uh
Ant's nests are also called 'Ant hive's '
The artist chose one over the other

poopp · 1 year ago

Large Hadron Collider?

Carlos · 1 year ago

Great! funny! Yes we probably end up like this.

Those who said that the LHC represents no danger. What could happen in 40 years to come? What if the budget get shorter and shorter? In 40 years or less, they will get all the answers they could have from the LHC, then they'll move to the next machine, and a big hole in the ground full of machines will we just a waste, hazardous waste.

All the answers we going to get! One book telling us the mysteries of the universe and the rest of the research will be used for military purpose.

Thomas · 1 year ago

Considering the LHC was built into the tunnels formerly occupied by the LEP (CERNs previous super-collider) I think it's quite probable that they'll just build a newer, better, upgraded version of it with more power into the exact same spot again (as they might be able to, considering the time to develop new materials and alloys and whatnot) - or use it as a pre-accelerator to an even bigger one, like they do with linear accelerators usually.
So... they pretty much recycle most of their accelerators or at least the tunnels they dug for them.

john · 1 year ago

Or they'll just continue to use all the smaller colliders, like they already do...

Nabil · 1 year ago

Wow. Not only is that mostly inaccurate, but also, it is poorly worded.

Sean · 1 year ago

The LHC is just a bunch of nitrogen cooled supermagnets.... there is no hazardous waste...

Sqrrl101 · 1 year ago

Actually, the LHC is cooled using liquid Helium.

Necron · 10 months ago

Oh God, it's going to fly away.

Surely that should be 'Nest Labs'

The cold evening is transformed and all you can feel is the warmth that covers your heart. You deeply enjoy the moment. The memory adds to the Band Merchandise and you can’t help but love it more.
