LARGE HADRON COLLIDER GETS A NAME CHANGE..

THIS IS HILARIOUS!!

How to you reassure the public that the giant death machine you've created is actually snuggly like a puppy? Well first off you change it's name. A poll organized by the Royal Society of Chemistry in London sought to do just that, taking suggestions from the public as to what to call the recently activated Large Hadron Collider, which I am constantly in danger of mistyping as 'Large Hardon Collider'. Suggestions ranged from whimsical Puff The Magic Hadron to the insanely fitting Black Mesa, but in the end, the winner was simply Halo.

"Halo conjures visions of radiant beauty, power and wisdom. The circle of light reflects the collider's form; it is a crowning achievement of science and engineering. It also gives more than a nod to the experiment's importance to religious debate.

LOLOLOLOL, THEY CALLED IT HALO! From my point of view, when I think of Halos, I generally think of a big mechanical thingy that brings death to all life..

Now, if changing the name is supposed to "reassure the public that the giant death machine you've created is actually snuggly like a puppy", then why do I have the bizarre feeling that this so called "Halo" is going to "fire" and "kill all sentient live" and "starve off zombies from a different galaxy"?

Lol, it's gonna be funny when these scientists realize that they were referencing a sci-fi device that destroys all life in the galaxy... LMFAO!




HAHAHA... I just CANNOT stop laughing!!
