More that it's a way to explain away that you are actually extremely Alpha, it is simply by your own Alpha choice that you have no friends or girlfriend.

I'd say to ask them why eggs don't float in the low-density fluid we call air, but air is invisible and thus doesn't exist.

So where does the egg fall in space? I mean if you put it in a jar of water its still denser than its medium, so that should make it fall even in zero G, according to that. So which side of the jar does it "fall" against?

I mean you can ask the same thing on earth if gravity truly is a lie. The result should be the same.

Well, for something to "fall" it has to go from one location to another. We cannot know something's location and speed at the same time, so if you see an egg moving, it isn't "any" where, and therefore is simply a figment of your overactive imagination.

Imagine 4 eggs at the edge of a glass. Say a direct copy of the egg nearest the glass is sent to the back of the line of eggs and takes the place of the first egg. The formerly first egg becomes the second, the second becomes the third, and the fourth falls into the glass.

Density works the same way.

I checked, .49 in 1975 would be 2.58 USD today. Even pre-crisis that's a very "not great, not terrible" number.

The Nomad is so cool though. A literal handheld console! My favorite part of the wikipedia entry is that it mentions its incompatibility with the 32x and Sega CD multiple times.

I started driving to school in September 2005. Then I remember seeing gas prices in my area double after Katrina. And this is in NJ, which has some of the lowest gas prices in the country (and wonderful full service.)
