I just checked to see how many signatures the petition has now (626). I scrolled down to see what kind of other petitions change.org has. I really wish I hadn't. :facepalm:
Oh, you thought it only hosted serious petitions like this one?
I was hoping this one was at the stupid end of the spectrum. Now I'm not so sure there is a stupid end, just an endless continuum of stupid.

Vig is just reacting to the word "continuum". But what they are implying is that the petition lies at a non-privileged location in the 4-, many- or infinte- dimensional space of stupidity. In essence, everything is equally stupid every direction you look. It is an one-up on the previous post which said the same thing but in only one dimension. I am unsure as to whether they succeeded in stating it. And I am unsure whether there is a way for lay people (which includes me) to discuss and understand Hilbert space.

The first rule of Hilbert space is that you need to drink some tequila to properly define one.

How about, "Fractally stupid in multiple dimensions" ?

A manifold of idiocy.

Some recent comments at the Bob Lazar (T-H-L) talkpage:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?ti ... 1214171064
Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 6 April 2024
Change "Elements of Bob's employment history have been exaggerated or fabricated" to "elements of Bob's employment history have been erased by officials from S-4 and the government. Citation: Joe Rogan Podcast #1315 Bob Lazar and Jeremy Corbell
Bob is telling the truth 100%. The government has now come forward and said that they have been working on and retrieving alien technology and bodies both living and dead from crash and donation sites (donation sites being sites where there were "crashes" without a body or a survivor leading officials to speculate they sent us that craft for some reason)

In the UFO corners of Twitter and Reddit, a baseless conspiracy theory developed that longtime skeptic editor in the UFO topic area LuckyLouie (T-C-L) was really former Tony Hawk Pro Skater developer and professional UFO debunker Mick West (T-H-L).
It does look suspicious LuckyLouie start editing Mick West minutes after it was created, until you see the creator 330highflyer (T-C-L) asked him for his help on it before moving it to mainspace.

BTW, LuckyLouie gave himself away when he uploaded a photo of his amateur radio studio in 2006.
