How To Destroy The Earth With A Coffee Can


It's time to stop talking about existential risks and start spreading them!

More incendiary than Michael Anissimov's "Six Places To Nuke When You're Serious" and more outrageous than Ann "Liberals love America like O.J. loved Nicole" Coulter, this article contains actual instructions for the Earth's complete and utter destruction!!!

"You can easily do this project over the course of a weekend, perhaps on Saturday afternoon. You'll have to figure out for yourself where to spend Sunday.

Before I go too much further, there is a difference between destroying the Earth and destroying life on Earth. It takes much less energy to destroy all life, all you need to do that is block out the Sun or release some kind of virus. No, I'm talking about blowing the planet to bits. Vaporizing it. "
I don't want to give too much away, but I think I've found a flaw in the author's reasoning concerning the susceptibility of virtual subatomic particles to the influence of Angelina Jolie, but what if I'm wrong?

"Are you pondering what I'm pondering Pinky?"

"I think so Brain. But what are we going to do with a coffee can and a picture of Angelina Jolie?"

Speaking about flaws in reasoning, there's a good reason why the particle accelerator at CERN won't make a black hole that eats up the world: The universe makes extremely high energy cosmic rays that slam into the earth on a regular basis. These have much more energy than what the CERN guys will be able to come up with. If particles at these energies created stable black holes the earth would have disappeared long ago.
