Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for April 30, 2024

It’s no more silly than arguing that a scientific theory is just a guess. Germ theory, economic theory, atomic theory, numbers theory, theory of general relativity, theory of special relativity, etc.

The trick Danae, is in forgetting to fall.

The Constitution and Congress never enacted a law of gravity, so that must be why we’re doing so well with our space program.

I fought the law, and the law won.

Then Einstein came along and said it was all relative.

If it’s all relative, maybe grabitty is the funny uncle.

That is quite a leap of illogical logic.

If Law is a social construct, and Gravity is a Law…

Seek immunity from the Supreme Court and you’ll be above the law.

Like someone whom we all know.

People didn’t float around before Isaac Newton. Galileo knew we didn’t float around. Something he couldn’t understand kept that from happening. It might have been magic. It might have been God. Newton explained it was gravity. And the Deists decided Newton was God and they didn’t need the old one any more.

Gravity may keep things in place but compared to other forces, it is actually very weak. Look at a refrigerator magnet. The magnetic force from that little piece of metal is much stronger than the gravitational force of the entire planet.

Sounds well grounded in science…

She’s as high a kite.

Anyone know what year this first appeared?

The reason we have more cases of covid is because we are testing more people. Anyone want to guess who made that statement?

Wile E. Coyote occasionally had temporary immunity, but it usually smacked him hard

Gravity – it’s not just a good idea, it’s the law.

Heavy, man.

It’s enough to carlin your hair.

It was all fun and games until Gravity looks in your direction and says " Er now Wot the ell do ya Think ya doing " ( the sound of a squishy Thud )

The logic works … for some people. If you don’t want something to exist, simply stop believing in it.

As Adam Savage (MythBusters) said, “I reject your reality and substitute my own.”

Gravity is not a problem. Douglas Adams explains, “The knack of flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”

Well Danae, “It’s time to try defying gravity” …that’s from Wicked .

You can also blame Newton for calculus…

She’d make such a good political advisor, maybe?

“I know this breaks the law of gravity, but I never studied law!” —Bugs Bunny

Isaac didn’t invent gravity. He wrote an instruction manual using a new kind of math so that nobody could figure how to use it. Albert turned it inside out and added his own variables.

Time for the little alien and his craft to appear somewhere, along with the other much sharper kids.

Sure, they have Danae. They all just went splat.

As Bugs Bunny said: “I know this defies the law of gravity, but I never studied law.”

So, we’ll give solipsism a try.

There is no gravity, the earth sucks

Gravity always wins.

Sounds like a natural progression from Flat Eartherism?

Even worse, he invented calculus. And the cat door, but that does not redeem him.

Isaac Newton formulated the law of gravity. EVERYBODY knew about gravity but only in a vague everyday way. This was the man who explained why planets move the way they do.

In the immortal words of Swami Beyondananda: “Fight gravity with levity.”

If she can arrange to get lost in the rain in Juarez when it’s Eastertime too, then her gravity will fail and negativity won’t pull her through.

Or she could just act like a climate denier or COVID denier — just say gravity is a hoax and jump off a tall building.

You can forget that mass attracts mass, until you’re in an auto accident. Then it becomes reality

Just remember, to paraphrase Bugs Bunny it helps if you don’t study law.

I never realized Danae was a Trump supporter.

Build a time machine, travel back to the 17th century, kill Newton.

Unfortunately, not the craziest thing I have ever heard.

I thought Danae was going to suggest repealing the law of gravity, like Wade worried in that one Garfield and Friends episode.

None of you folks are giving this discussion the proper gravity of viewpoint.

So if gravity is the law, then according to the scale, I’m not breaking the law.

She’s probably going to get Jeremy to build her a Time Machine so she can go back and stop Isaac Newton.

If it were only that simple.

Declare gravity unconstitutional.

Calvin called. He wants his hare brained scheme back.

If you don’t believe in something then it can’t posibly be real! (snicker)

So from now on, apples fall upward??

Newton was not a comic character, that’s why.
