See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I have a kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect - in my pants!

That's what she said!

As if the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy weren't vexing enough, another baffling cosmic puzzle has been discovered.

Cool! It's awesome how much stuff we don't know about the Universe.

The stuff that's pulling this matter must be outside the observable universe, researchers conclude.

So we're all inside one of those magnetic "draw a mustache on the bald guy" games, and now we're seeing the clumps of iron filings being moved around by the magnetic wand?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Patches of matter in the universe seem to be moving at very high speeds and in a uniform direction that can't be explained by any of the known gravitational forces in the observable universe. Astronomers are calling the phenomenon "dark flow."

The stuff that's pulling this matter must be outside the observable universe, researchers conclude.

It's the Speed Force! Talk to The Flash.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. Except it's not a mustache.

Oh, this is wrong like a wrong thing: [link]

Not actually unsafe for work, despite the designers best efforts.

Not really that exotic, it's just stuff responding to matter that is too far away to see. This sounds like just confirmation of what was already suspected, that there is a lot more Universe that what we can observe.

“Not dead yet!”

I love that his name is Romeo. One of my best friends has four pugs. She's threatening one more, because she doesn't have a black pug. I'm thinking of staging an intervention.

(Says the woman with the three dogs, one of which weighs more than her four pugs put together.)
