Really, there's not much COVID out there, by volume...

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Sort of interesting fact: a British mathematician (Kit Yates from Bath University) has worked out that there are around 2 quintillion of those virus particles in the world at any one time. Using the virus's size (about 100 nanometers), and even allowing for space between because of their spikes, all of them could fit inside a single 330 ml Coke can (under 12 ounces).

Wow, very interesting. Never would have guessed that such a little thing could have such a big impact on the world!

I'm never drinking Covid Coke again.

For something so small it sure packs a wallop!

Let me think about the ramifications. On a galactic scale you and I are very small, fast moving, unstable and rapidly evolving. We are like a foaming, transforming dynamic and intelligent goo...on a galactic scale. We scare the heck out of the galaxy.

And do you blame the galaxy? Sometimes, we scare the heck out of me!

We should launch that can into the Sun.

Can we throw in a few Republican nay-sayers?

No, it's a non-partisan can.

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

No, it's a non-partisan can.

I've heard about those -- unisex bathrooms, right?

 

[Brickjectivity]

No, it's a non-partisan can.

Is that an ice cream flavor? It should be.

 

[Twilight Hue]

No, it's a non-partisan can.

As long as there isn't a shrink ray.

You do what you want, Sir, but as for me, this is last time I ever in my life will attempt to get high by snorting a liquid product of the Coca Cola Company. Any liquid product!

Wasn't doing for me what I expected it would anyway. The cans I was buying in the grocery store must have been severely cut with water. Only explanation I can think of.
