Ooops.. our scientists just discovered that we have a defective Universe. It has a hole! A BIG one! One billion light years across. <\/p>\n

I KNEW IT! I knew from the day I could think straight that we had a second hand, hastily put together \u201cMade in China\u201d Universe bought from a Dollar Store! Otherwise, how the heck can you explain a species as lunatic as Humankind, being the \u201cMasters of the Universe\u201d??!! If Earth is the only useful thing in this giant loser of a Universe and we humans are the best that \u201cOwner\u201d of the Universe could come up with, its couldn\u2019t have been bought at the Macy\u2019s of the Universe Shopping mall.<\/p>\n

We knew our Universe thingy had holes before \u2013 black ones. But at least \u2013 hopefully \u2013 they weren\u2019t leaky. They had stuff in it.. stars, gas etc. They would suck all that came near them. <\/p>\n

This dude has NOTHING in it. Just plain void. NOTHING! Now, how do you know its a hole if there is nothing in it. Maybe someone forgot to put something out there in that area. Its not as if this Universe was set up by some great Interior designer.. properly decorating every inch with something. Even when we bought our new house.. a few of our rooms were empty. It took time. It ain\u2019t a case of wonder, guys.. .its just that the little dude putting stuff in here, got lazy or ran out of money!<\/p>\n

You know what really \u2026. really bothers me? That we have no idea to fix a damn oil leak 5000 feet below the sea and we are bothered about this damn hole 6 to 10 billion light years away. Even if that hole was oozing cyanide, guys, it will take a bit to reach us. But this oil.. aint stopping any time soon! If it keeps going the way its going and a couple of other such \u201choles\u201d open up in our gas wells.. we will be as good as a giant hole ourselves!!<\/p>\n
