I also learned some physics today

Each car has kinetic energy K directly before the collision. At the end of the collision, both cars are at rest, and the total kinetic energy of the system is 0.

So if I'm correct about the law of conservation of energy that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed from one form to another.

Though I'm not sure how it works if one party is at rest and the other moving.

Ya cuz that energy got transferred to the deformation. Job done.

Correct In technical terms the kenetic energy is converted into 'elastic' potential energy - same way that you use energy to compress a spring and it springs back; the energy is used to deform the metal - but it doesn't spring back.

Also, a lot of energy is released in the form of heat.

As for if one party is moving and another is at rest - no change. Just less kenetic energy to begin with being transferred into both cars.

I would imagine reversing or traversing would be a bad idea or common sense if you can't see.

I also learned that Lups thinks I'm way prettier than I actually am.

That I still got it

Running over the bridge, shirtless, tan skin glistening with the effort. 2 millennial chicks in car waving and cat-calling as they drove by

I did NOT learn if I could just grab them by the


Bumper and hold on

Kissa is fine and annoying as hell, Rabies Alfonso, the children's dog is the sick one!

" Oh I heard your dog is sick. Take good care of it, your mom tends to out down family members when they fall I'll" said my mom to my kids, which means I've spent the last few weeks under heavy guard, and I had to explain the concept of euthanasia to them, and what I did to my dad.

If the news of a mysterious murder in Finland where a woman has been beaten to death with milk cans reaches your ears, you can be pretty sure it wasn't me. My commitment to non violent and conversation based communication has yet again been tested to the limits of my sanity and I think I passed.

Sorry to hear - probably difficult to remove her from your life too for the kids sake.

I had thought it was Kissa with the dietary issues - but hope Rabies make a comeback (that sounded odd)!
