Away With You, Foul Serpent!
Would somebody kindly explain to me what the hell’s a gigawatt?
The cop said something about clocking and the boy in the second panel is from the time travel commedy trilogy “back to the future”.
JGerrity asked what a gigawatt is.
Is this thing on?
Apparently, he’s never seen the movie. Lay off the idiot.
A gigawatt is 10^9 watts, or 1,000,000,000 watts.
You mean Jiggawatt I’m assuming. That’s the one from Back to the future, not gigawatt.
Just read below and followed through the link, then did a bit more research… apparently the soft G in gigawatt came about in the 60s-80s and is now actually considered one of the two valid pronunciations. ~facepalm~ Ah well.
First!…
[...to fail.]
Nope, only the second.
btw, thumbs up!
and LOL!!
Go, Marty! Go!
[Three comments in a row? wtf?!]
I really doubt that.
[Ok, be quiet now, Jeff...]
ok mate
don’t get it, explain.
The DeLorean travels through time once it reaches 88mph, so Marty being caught at 89mph is kinda… hm… ‘impossible’.
ah k, thanks. i saw the movies, but it was a long time ago.
The DeLorean only travels through time when it reaches 88mph IF the “time circuits” are turned on…
“When this baby hits 88 mph…you’re gonna see some serious s**t”
Back to the Future – 1985
Jumping jigowatts! http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/04/08/you-say-gigawatt-i-say-jigowatt/
Okay, lemme try again…
“When this baby hits 88 mph…you’re gonna see some serious sh!t!”
In Back to the Future (1985), an eccentric scientist (Christopher Lloyd) builds a time machine out of a DeLorean DMC-12. When the car reaches 88 mph, it travels through time.
Me too, I honestly don’t get it. Unless it’s that at 89 he’d be travelling through time?
88, actually.
children!
the DeLorean was capable of doing 88 mph before it jumped through time thus making it impossible to clock anything over 88mph
But what if the time circuits are turned off?
unless the time circuit is turned off or if the delorian is out of plutonium or Mr. Fushion is empty
Problem officer?
At 88mph is when the flux capacitor kicks in and you travel back in time. If he was doing 89, then he was doing time travel.
yea
>88mph
not funny even after the explanations
lotta kids here >.>
This one was very clever. It made me laugh. Thanks.
Actually, he could have easily been going 89 miles per hour. The DeLorean would only jump at 88 if the flux capacitor was … fluxing.
You think Doc would be so silly as to try to keep that thing under 88 while flying through the air-expressway in 2015? Not likely.
That was my second thought, the first was *snort*. Still one of the funniest and cleverest strips I’ve seen here and any excuse to ogle Marty is fine by me.
Yes, Marty’s ogle-worthy. Which is saying a lot, since I do very little ogling and MJF is 3 inches shorter than me.
Dude I just saw tehese movies, they rock. I got it at first, but the movies r funnier than the comix
I got it now, thanks for the explanations. I recently re-watched all three episodes, it’s a fantastic movie. Funny, well constructed and the characters are lovely.
And even if he had turned the flux capacitator off, DeLoreans only had a top speed of 60.
“And if he HAD turned the flux capacitator off, DeLoreans had a top speed of about 110mph.”
-Fixed it.
The police man looks like he has Pepsi advertisements on his shoulders. He looks like a race car driver.
So technically he travelled about an inch in 20 years… that’s gotta be legal.
You’re so freaking damn doors, that’s cause Delorean’s maximum speed was 88mph
Im impressed, I must say. Very rarely do I come across a site that\
