comic featuring two stick figures. stick figure 1, holding a pebble: "this rock erupted from a volcano near the south pole when the world was frozen over, just before multicellular life arose." she tosses it into a vast lake; it skips several times before falling beneath the surface. she says, "now it'll be covered in sediment that becomes a new rock layer. it will likely stay buried until it melts down, erodes away, or the earth is consumed by the sun." her companion says, "today was a weird day in its incredibly long life." she responds, "five brief skips, then eons of darkness." her companion: "five is a lot, though!" she agrees: "it was a good throw."

i think we should all consider getting emotional over this xkcd. as a group. let's get emotional about it
