Mar 20 2010It Was Only A Matter Of Time....
Before a major news outlet misspelled Large Hadron Collider. Thankfully, it was the Telegraph and not a really respectable news source like Geekologie. Because boy would I have been red in the face! No, no I wouldn't have been. I would have worn that shit like a badge. A badge of awesome. Now collide those wieners!
The Typo We've Been Waiting For [gizmodo]
Thanks to Liz, who doesn't even want to know what happens when two giant blimpies collide. Magic, Liz, magic.

The first few times I read about the LHC I read it as hardon... and while I know its Hadron, I still slip and say Hardon like every damn time.

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max survived a plane crash only to be sent back to the 70s and have to work with a bunch of hippies.

There is a Long Island punk band called The Broosevelts that have a song called Large Hardon Collider. It's on their myspace.

They've been playing it live for a few years now.
