Light is a wonderful thing. It is also very confusing. See formula
Note: if you can’t understand, you’re clearly not teh TG
Note 2: The formula is the uncertainty principle. In simple terms, it means that you can either have a pet cat, or eat a cheezburger. But you can’t have both. Logic courtesy: ICHC
The function of Light is to illuminate, but light reading requires zero or no illumination. Scientifically it’s either a wave or a particle but throwing light on the subject makes things no clearer. The opposite of light is dim, which is a groovy XML tag. People feel no slight if you call them light; yet light clothing is frowned upon. All this constitutes the conclusion that Light is a dysfunctional family of photons whom you can’t invite for lunch. (Slick, eh. The way I rick-rolled you into googling photons)
With all these photons zipping around at light speed, we tend to think of them as a collective. No personality, all business. Have speed, must travel. To us, they are nothing but a blur, a smear or a streak of light. However, you gotta think, to a wandering photon, we’d also appear a blur. A single stream of grey tops mumbling around in our corner offices, plotting to take over the world?
SFF is a lot like this. Sword wielders dueling sorcerers & emperors, mages in downtown Manhattan, giant spaceships blasting away at Death Star, Aliens doing alien stuff – useful tropes for classifying this lit., but awkward party conversation. This blog is to maintain that great tradition. Reading it will still not get you laid.
About The Author
The author is an extremely-skilled multicellular biped macro-organism. Blood descendant of the triumphant race of Cro-Magnon man. Alas, while he’s just as intelligent, the author hasn’t inherited the ability to create frescoes in dim-lit caves. Apart from this, he also works & blogs like any other monkey and generally loves operating slightly on the right of being obfuscatious
