Shrinking!

Well I just got done watching the Movie Inner Space and a funny thought came to mind. You think Humans will ever be abel to shrink things? Is it possible to shrink a human to Microscopic size? I love shrinking movies like "Honey I shrunk the Kids, Inner Space, and of course a classic Fantastic Voyage." But compareing Inner Space and Fantastic Voyage, I prefer Inner Space. That movie is pretty funny with Martin Short and Dennis Quaid, and Meg Ryan. It's old and it was made in the late 80's but It is a very fun movie. Anyway the question is will we shrink things? And if so, how?

Probably sometime in the future.

And I don't know how; I'll leave that up to those smart scientist dudes to figure out.

When I saw the topic, I thought you were referring to the common atrocity all of us guys suffer through when we jump into cold water.

Oh yeah?! Well...um...

Mine turns into a purple armadillo and says "howdy Jobo" before it blasts of into space in a green polka dotted thong and is never seen again!

Man, look how this topic has turned around...

I think its funny. Shrinking babies to shrinking genitals. To spamming. Funny.

Shrinking? Funny sounding. Once we figure out, you can be the first peron shrunk. I can already imagine little tiny type, typed by a little dude hopping around. Funny.

You can close this topic Majic because I believe that the members have started talking about gay things like that. Because I was intending to talk about shrienking things but it seems to me that people here want talk about gay things. So close it please! I can't delete this thread.

Yeah, sorry about that...I couldn't think of any of those stupid nicknames for it, so I just typed it blatantly...

And sorry about my...er...comment.

Really, it made sense when I typed it.

This topic is still open. Theres not large quantities of spam all over, not crawdad bait yet. Theres still plenty of room for discussion. Just like the "jokes" topic.

You are not with your 'friends' now PA. I dont see anything vaguely homosexual written in this topic, all i see is stuff about natural occurances...*Looks at Mac*...Ahem...yes. PA, when your 'friends' die...and you move out of your parents home (Assuming you ever do) you will realise that women want more of a man and less of a child...pressuming your into women.

I shrunk once before! I went into the shower and... The hot water runs out!

Anyway, it'd be cool to make humans shrink to micro sizes.

PA, you're totally out of line here. You need to ease off. If the topic bothers you so much, then ignore it. Insulting jacob, and demanding that the topic be closed will get you no where.

Go sob onto your woman's shoulder for awhile. It's okay, really. Let it all out. Women like sensitive guys. Honest.

but most women are totally disgusted by homophobic comments and actions like you've made in this thread.

Chris! Do dogs count? Do dogs count?!

This is a funny thread to read, and PA, Dave told you, but I'll say it again. Calm down and stop asking for this to be closed. It'll close when it gets to bad.

Well I wanted to contribute to the correct subject of this thread as like paramiteabe I find it interesting, but to my dismay I find it has deteriorated. But I'm still going to post what I wanted to post ... darn guys with "one track minds".

I read a short science fiction story once which was about shrinking. It was very interesting, because the guy in it shrunk, but unlike the movies that paramiteabe mentions he keeps shrinking. What he finds out is that there are universes inside ours. So therfore he shrinks so small that he eventually dissappears from this universe or reality and goes into the next one in which he is larger than everything. I can't remember how it ends as I read it years ago, but the gist of it was that there were many universes layered over each other each really smaller than the next. But of course you would not realize that because to you, everything would be in proportion.

I'm sure no one really cares, but I do care if people start insulting others ... so if this keeps up I'll be the one closing it.

Abe Babe...

Thankyou Abe Babe. And I am sorry if I was being pretty crazy back there. I just got a little annoyed with people here, that I just felt it was kind of insaughting my inteligence at the time. So I had to say something. Anyway to get back on the subject (the right subject).

How would you be able to shrienk a humen?

You just did it yourself in one fell swoop...

Anyway, i believe the only way to shrink a human is to cut him up into teensy pieces...

You never know what technology our future would produce, but I'm really not sure if technology to shrink humans would be scientifically possible. The shrinking would need to involve not only the shrinking of the body, but also all organs would need to be shrinked in proportion in order to allow for the correct blood flow and operation of the body.

If something were to be developed to do such, I don't think it would be by any means that is known today.

Give it a couple of thousand years and we will actually be inside games and people will be able to shrink and grow and the whole 'UFO' conspiracy thing will be solved. Area 51 is actually the place were they are building new air-craft technologies...
