100Gs is enough to basically flatten anything. 100 MG is massive, probably like inside-a-black-hole massive.

Wait, are we talking gigaseconds now?

Capital G is usually used for gravity. The meme is referring to grams, which are lower case g, and milligrams, which is lower case mg. Capital MG could be interpreted as megagravities, which is a hilariously large acceleration.

Isn't g typically used for the gravity of earth? And G for the general gravitational constant (independent of mass) in Newton's gravity law?

100Gs

I think they were jokingly talking about this

Heh. Vine.

To note: 100 G << 1 MG Also G cannot be added or removed with a spoon, or did I miss some big leap in physics?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You missed the comically big leap where all measuring instruments have been replaced by comically large spoons.

I rescind my comment post-haste

To be fair, the meme generator can't do lowercase letters

Maybe if the spoon is ferromagnetic?

Do you use a McDonald’s spoon?
