fail,.

to describe something as a first, it must have preceded many other things like it .

how many big bangs are you expecting to happen from now?

To be fair, there's no evidence that it was the first.

That's the first time I've seen someone say that.

haha , wtf. surely you agree with this simple logic.

Christ. for something to be first it must be a precedent to many other things after it. no?

Not sure I'm following your logic there. But nonetheless, we don't know that there were not other big bangs which happened before the one that created the universe(s) as we know it.

Typical, a thread in a nerd forum goes from "post first evers" to a debate about the big bang.

You mean like, this is the first time I've ever posted this sentence? Or is it not, because I haven't posted another like it after this?

Dogoid · 24 Oct 2009 at 01:20

whether there has been 40 other big bangs previous to the one we know and love. this thread is about the ' firsts' we can qualify.

geekyEd · 24 Oct 2009 at 01:22

or I could have eaten monkeys for the first time today, it doesn't mean more have to follow. Its still the first, it would just happen to be the last as well!
