I once knew a homeopath who tried to kill himself.
He took a massive underdose.
I can't tell if this is an actual story or a Mitch Hedberg style joke.
It's a joke. If it was serious, it would use other words while adding up to the same meaning.
I miss Mitch, man
I used to miss him. I still do, but I used to, too.
Lol. I had a chemistry prof in university that every year, when teaching dilution, mixed up a solution of arsenic that was 2x the lethal dose and then diluted it over and over and over and then drank the water.
He's building up resistance so his wife can't poison him.
or silly Sicilians
RIP Mr. Randi
You can imagine how many zeros of millions they paid out
I’ve just now read through his extremely lengthy Wikipedia article and all I can say is: What an amazing man.
Quite the guy!
Also - two kinds of Lemmings
(Second response was to screenshots of: a paragraph, a graph, and four bullets) 😉
I found your post and I actually was reading about American (il)literacy rates about a month ago hahaha. It’s truly sad. But that’s a funny reply!
He wrote a terrific book called Flim-Flam!, which I've read multiple times. It's incredibly good. A book about anti-scientific bullshit written in 1980 holds up just as much today because it's the same bullshit.

Sign me up! Thank you!
Really disappointing that so called people would rather believe in some random organisation for science instead of you know actual scientists and scientific groups like IONS for example investigating phenomenon scientifically
People are fools if they'd rather idolise figures instead of listening to actual qualified scientists and I'm tired of people listening to insufferable pop "scientists" who spout their own toxic opinions instead of listening to actual scientists
what does this mean?
Thanks for sharing that and for the name of the organization. They sound great. Am I reading this correctly that one may potentially fund the other in some circumstances, and thus there is room for both?
IONS Is actually serious about doing research into it while jref are like toxic atheists
All I've heard of jref and randi is that they are against research into it and try to discredit any organisations that want to seriously research and study it in bad faith, its the same thing I've seen atheists do
Basically IONS is the kid who wants to play card games with people in class while jref, randi and atheists are the negative nancy kid who wants to take away those cards and ruin the fun for everyone because they don't like it
The jref article on Wikipedia is also likely under the control of that guerilla wikipedia editing group that has taken over control of certain sections of Wikipedia
That guerilla group acts like the negative nancy kid I described in the earlier analogy
These are the same kinds of groups that spawn wikipedia editor wars
I'm not going to mention that groups name because it'll show up on Google indexes for anyone using advanced google search operators and will put a target on my comment
That is totally wild! Never would’ve guessed.
Also I'd suggest getting information about IONS from IONS themselves and not wikipedia
Why didn't any of these supposed scientists make an easy million dollars by scientifically proving the existence of a supernatural phenomenon, then?
So does that mean he actually payed out the largest fortune in human history?
Thankfully zeros of millions (0s of $$) and not millions of zeros ($1x10^10000000^) :)
