wanking or not
http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/6028/57475289.jpgalso can't remember the issue but Flash and Supes are in a diner discussing Flash and his speed. It's a point where the issue of attosecond perception is brought up as Flash's standard level of perception.
🙄
Whatever. Please. Explain it to me. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, after all.

I'm confused. Are you denying the diner conversation happened? What are you getting at?
^ Think about it for a second, willya?
Originally posted by Uriel005So I stretch out a 10 minute conversation with someone out of 1 second. That's like 10 minutes, or 600 seconds, instead of 1 second. So that's like being 600x faster than human speed.
well everyone else appeared frozen in the diner compared to them.
Of course, it's Superman so he's like 1,000,000,000,000,000x human speed (that's attosecond speed btw).
Awesome. Yeah, that makes sense.

Except you made up 1 second. A lot of movement happens in one second. In one second a dropped cup would hit the floor.
In the scene, the whole thing happened and nothing had moved at all
Originally posted by Cogito... no, a cup wouldn't hit the floor in 1 second.

If you really want to get technical over this, look at the orientation of the waitress as time stops and when it resumes.
Seriously.

Originally posted by CogitoOh, granted your estimation, then in 1/16 second that cup would have fell one foot. So, 1 ft/sec (sort of). Which is basically 10x human speed.
A cup, in one second, would fall 4.9 meters or about 16 feet. If you want to get technical.Seriously.
Of course, when discussing attosecond speeds, 1,000,000,000,000,000x human speed it's like the same thing, amirite?
And no, I'm pretty sure a cup wouldn't hit the floor in one second anyway unless you're at terminal speed.

While this isn't a coherent thought, even if it were it's displaying gross ignorance of physics and gravity. It's an exponential speed increase until it reaches terminal velocity (which it wouldn't, obviously).
Originally posted by CogitoAh, so basically you assume with utter reckless abandon that time stopped to the tune of 1,000,000,000,000,000x human speed. I get it though: in your opinion that cup would have fallen 16 feet in 1 sec. That's the American school system for you. But, whatever. Ok. Like I said, even granted your estimation...

... somehow you extrapolated 1,000,000,000,000,000x human speed from that.
Do me a favor, get your head out of your a$$. Seriously. It's not your fault. Pretty much all DC speed proponents who think DC speed > Marvel speed act this way anyway. But seriously. WTF?
