  • That last bit was too awesome.

  • @brokenbeforetime the stuff in the speaker is a mix of cornstarch and water. When the sound waves hit it they cause it it change from a liquid into a solid. It's called a non newtonian fluid. So basically if you press your hand into it slowly it's a dense liquid, whereas if you punch it it would condense then crumble from the force of the impact.

  • If anyone had any doubt that cornstarch is disgusting... Well there you go.

  • --The corn starch is not showing the truth, it is reflecting the flawed logics of varrious minds of creation, the writhing mass like a million hell-bound fag/whores screaming against the wrong idea"NOOOO"as the roar of the coean--as the ideas of the minds of creation shift, the results showed in corn starch may shift--the plot to have these people eat popcorn at the movies, inviting corn starch to the body/spirit, the sound of the film, the proof of what is false, their behavior shifts to good--

  • thank you science for creating the things i see in nightmares in real life

  • y it do that???

  • thumbs up

  • ...and thus man was born.

  • non-Newtonian fluid, sheer thickening
