No matter what color shape or form soap is in . . . the lather is always white. Why is that? prettyy eirie if you ask me . . . I apparently don't know how to spell eerie . . . wait is that it? If yes FUCK YEAH if not wel... fuck it ( Read more... )

See, that whole phrase would've been SO much less impactual without the cussing =P

I take this time to announce my campaign to run for election on the 7 dirty words ticket

a) soap lather is a result of detergents forming bubbles allbeit tiny bubbles but they are. such bubble form thin films which refract light in such a way that it changes the wavelenght of that packet of light to emit in the visable specutum as a function of thickness of the walls of said bubbles. as the the thickeness is varinag to such a degree that it it indecipharable to the naked eye where one packet stops and another one begins all weavlanghts of light are repersented in such an array. The resulting effect will be white light emmitted.

b) Words only hold the weight givent to them by the listener. Many individuals let sociotey decide what weight should be held by a particular word.

a)but if the soap is say red wouldn't that wavelength be filtered out during refraction to represent only the remaining wavelengths which would render it a different hue than say green soap??

b)Your once again talking on the micro level I'm talking macro. Not as individuals but rather as in american society. Mass appeals and pack behaviour.

I can at least try to SOUND smurt.

a) no, color in soultion exists from transitons of electrons form higher energy levels to lower ones. such transitions yeild bands of light. the three series of weivlenghts are known as a transintin to the 1st energy level called the "lyman sereis" the 2nd level called eh "balmer series" and to the thirs known as the "paschen series" such electronic transmitions yeild excess energy as photons of light. [Cutnell & Johnson, Physics 5th ed. Chapter 30, p915] this is however vwry diffrent form the refraction of light caused by the thin films. [chapter27, p837] thin films refract the light and if thick enugh would yeild a bubble with a distinct color however it would not be very stong. i ask you to do an experiment. take a liquid soap nas spread it out on a white surface. at what thickness dose teh color become insignificat? such is the the very nature if your query. thich enugh soap will result in light, thin films will not ( ... )

a)Don't ask me how but I understood everysingle word of that. . . I'm scared of me right now I hope your happy. BTW john your the only person I know that can take a conversation about soap suds and need to cite sources. I will never look at dishsoap, or you the same way again.

b)off duty judges. Trust me.

Which brings about how is it acceptable in daily life for just about everyone even a priest, yet somehow in anything other than a casual circumstance it's taboo and frowned upon as though you deficated in the punch bowl. I'm not saying it'll be good for it to go as far as on your wedding day the priest, preacher rabbi what have you goes "your fuckin married kiss the fuckin bride" NO that would detract from the mood it's messes with the flow. . . I'm just saying it shouldn't be the 7 dirty words but rather the fab 5 with a duet from fucknshit. . . idunno where that came from. . . all I know is that I hope if for some reason some poor child is born to have me, I hope his first words are fuck you . . . papi.
