Morbane's coal

[coalcube]

In quantum wankchanics, Morbane's coal is a thought experiment, sometimes described as a paradox, of quantum wankerposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical gift may be considered simultaneously both the fic of your dreams (TFOYD) and coal, while it is unread state, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.

The Coaltide interpretation implies that, after a while, the gift is simultaneously TFOYD and coal. Yet, when a coalie clicks on their gift, the coalie sees the gift either TFOYD or coal, not both TFOYD and coal. This poses the question of when exactly quantum wankerposition ends and reality resolves into one possibility or the other.

Re: Potentially Fresh Wank?

ayrt

I'm not a native English speaker, but - and this is probably true in every language - you do realize that a lot of phrases and sayings are glib statements that have often nothing to do with how things work in reality, right?

Anyway, I genuinely think you're trolling, so I'm out. I should be writing comments on my Yuletide gifts rather than getting into pointless arguments with wankers on an anon meme.

imagining people are trolling for thinking it's polite to say thank you for a gift even if you didn't love it. lmfao. astonishing. try your very hardest not to insult your authors in your comments, i guess!
