Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for August 26, 2021

There’s too many of ’em! 8^ )

What we call gravity is due to the warping of space caused by matter. Janis is making more sense than Arlo.

Ahhh, space. The final frontier. Don’t go there Janice, it will boldly hit you in the butt.

Every thing attracts every thing else. Acceleration would push against anything in front and pull away from behind. The doppler effect.

This is how flat-earthers explain gravity. Of course, this means that we should be moving at the speed of light.

Don’t encourage the mansplaining.

Heavy clothes.

I’m getting flashbacks of a conspiracy theorist former coworker who believes the Earth is flat, the moon landing was faked, satellites are all fake, and Michele Obama is actually a man. And if you don’t believe him, he’ll be happy to show you all the “evidence” he found on Facebook and Instagram.

Thank you Dr. Einstein.

Sorry, gravity is still a mystery to me.

Gravity and COVID-19 have this in common: Ignore them at your own peril.

What does China have to do with it?

Arlo could not be more wrong on so many levels!!

As it isn’t different for people in China this is obvious proof that the earth is flat!

Reminds me of an old T-shirt. “There is no gravity…the Earth sucks!”

Velcro on the bottom of their shoes

This discussion is getting warped. Space-Time for a break. Let’s go to Relativity Beach and let the gravitational waves wash over us.

I don’t like thinking about gravity.

It brings me down.

Gravity sucks.

It’s time for Einstein to give Arlo a “Dope” slap.

Time to get out the trampoline and a bowling ball.

Because the Chinese government will not permit it. And anything that is not permitted is prohibited.

Who knows, maybe people in China ARE floating away and their government has hushed it up.

Because Earth is flat :D

His ideas about gravity need more gravitas.

Gravity is actually very weak. Take a look at a refrigerator magnet. The magnetic force coming from that little piece of metal is stronger than the gravitational force of the entire planet.

Why would people in China be floating?

Golly gee, Mr. Wizard!

Arlo should live by the rule, “Tis better to keep your mouth closed and have everyone think you’re stupid, than to open it and prove it.”

Oh, yay. Mansplaining.

We do not know what causes gravity.

All I know about gravity is I got 5 seconds to pick up my peanut butter sandwich off the floor. And less than a minute to clean up the peanut butter off the tiles.

as Pauli supposedly said (if he didn’t, he should have)…"That is not only not right; it is not even wrong"

Arlo, you’re in trouble! You drew Janis too fat!!!

Gravity is a bending of space-time caused by mass (in some sense even identical to mass). The same for acceleration. Gravity and acceleration are the same thing. This observation is the basis for Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. (Relative) Motion is an effect of gravity but not its cause. What Arlo says is nonsense, and Janis’ reply is right on.

There is no gravity. The universe sucks.

It won’t be long before Fox News starts harping on this as fact

i believe arlo’s is talking about Einstien’s ‘rocket elevator’ thought experiment or at least his interpretation

I didn’t really understand how gravity works, but now it is even more confusing.

Mmm… slip sliding away? (◔_◔)

He’s wrong but his heart is in the right place, it is a blarney to sooth Janis as a follow up of yesterday’s when she fell down and started to feel insecure about her weight again which happens periodically.
