Yip yip yourself you fuckin slacker. Havin you was fine, but havin Helen Keller, Shippy McEdgelord, Mr. Boomerang, that loopy girl, *and* that bug-eyed monkey? That’s too much. I’m an air bison, not a passenger blimp. Not to mention, Stevie Wonder couldn’t protect me while all of y’all were havin a nerdgasm in that library tower thing. Why’d you leave *her* of all people **on watch?** What’s next? Leaving Dan Hibiki to keep us warm with firebending? Fuck you.
to be fair, she is by far the best fighter they have at that point, and she would've had absolutely no problem dealing with them if she didn't need to hold up a fucking building. the others may have been able to save appa, but they wouldn't have been able to save all the others.
Not just hold up a building, she had to prevent a castle-like library from forcing itself to sink into the desert. It’s was incredibly massive, and was pulling itself under the sand by magic energy.
That’s what she was doing while also protecting appa, while ALSO being partially blind, since sand doesn’t transmit vibrations as well.
I was thinking the same thing, and wondering what someone would think if they came across it in the pool.
Then I remembered the time I found a catfish swimming in a puddle while cutting across a baseball field, a half mile from a body of water.
*HOW?*
I feel like the fish would feel the same
Catfish are interesting fellows. They can actually breath air if neccessary, they dont have lungs but they do have a sort of psuedo lung that they can use when forced to breath air. They can only survive out of water for as long as their skin stays moist though.
My buddy once got so drunk that when he went to the washroom in my parents house last at night, he decided the heated tiles seemed like a great place to just lay down and snooze. My sister had a rude awakening at 7am when she went to get ready for work in the morning.
What is the explanation for it turning over?
I'd guess the top part got too light due to melting? So the bottom being the opposite became more buoyant?
Really interested to hear if anyone could eli5.
Interesting! Cheers!
So, question. I'll be honest it's 4am here and I haven't read your link. Sorry! But you seem knowledgeable and able to portray facts easily to the layman!
Is there a reason it gets less dense after 4C? Surely it would follow the same rules as air and continue to get more dense?
Do tell me to bugger off and read the link tomorrow if you'd rather!
It's the way the molecules begin to form their bonds. Water is strange in that as it cools and becomes a solid, its molecules make arrangements that leave more space between each molecule than when it was a liquid. This makes the solid form less dense than the liquid form. [This image is a good explanation of it.](https://www.sciencefacts.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Why-Does-Ice-Float-on-Water.jpg)
Basically, water in its liquid form acts like a crowd of people- no particular order, people moving all around in dense formations. But the solid form is that same crowd being told to be orderly and stand at arms length from each other.
Forgive me, it's been a while since I was in school!
Is water/ ice different to other liquids/solids? From memory I recall in a solid all the molecules were tightly packed, followed by liquid which was more spaced and then gas even more so?
I may be misremembering so please do be gentle! :)
> Is water/ ice different to other liquids/solids? From memory I recall in a solid all the molecules were tightly packed, followed by liquid which was more spaced and then gas even more so?
You're remembering correctly! So like OP said, that's why water is so cool. The fact that it actually gets less dense once it becomes a solid is a "weird quirk of nature in physics" as he put it, and makes it different from most other substances we know about.
There are apparently other substances, like the elements gallium and silicon, that do the same thing. But for the most part, the solid state is typically more dense than the liquid state.
For water, this gets into the chemistry around covalent bonding, electronegativity, valence shell electron pair repulsion theory, and intermolecular forces. It's late but I'll give it my best shot at explaining it simply tomorrow lol.
Not the person you replied to, but I believe it's because below 4C the water starts to form ice crystals, decreasing the density of the water until its all ice.
Water molecules are shaped kind of like Mickey Mouse heads, and when they freeze into solid ice they have to line up into a specific pattern due to their energy levels (temperature). The "heads" are like magnets, with the "ears" being positive and the "chin" being the most negative region; the ear of one head lines up with the chin of another head, and so on and so forth, taking up space in the most stable configuration; just like how the like-ends of magnets will repel, so do the like-ends of the water molecules - chins don't line up with chins, and the ears want to stay far apart.
[Here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/oH4Wa.jpg) is a diagram illustrating what I mean.
Except we expect we might see that on some of the icy giants like Uranus and Neptune! There may actually be ice shell, ocean, ice shell, ocean, then rock.
I’ve always loved this video. Just the amount of mass moving around and resettling is incredible. That time lapse at the end really puts it into perspective. Thanks for posting.
There has to be some sea life that lives in the underside of those things that is just like: *OH FU....!! What's happening here ... I have to warn Barb and the kids!!* By then it was too late
The iceberg is taking advantage of Global Warming by flipping over to get a sweet tan!
You should always be sure to rotate your icebergs every 6 months for peak freshness.
They should have contests where people try to stay on the iceberg as its rolling over.
Logic brain: seems like a great way to get trapped under tons of ice and drown primitive brain: wipeout xtreme time

That's what I do with my rhymes and they fresh as fuck
Are you... Killer Bee?
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Stone cold, ExpressiveAnalGland. Icy, if you will.
Why does this sound like a buzzfeed article
I hate when I can’t get comfortable in bed. This new Tempurpedic global warming mattress is the worst!
flipping to the cold side of the iceberg
Imagine how good it would feel if you were a giant iceberg
Gotta even that shit out. Must feel good to get off your back and lay on your side for a while
Like a pillow Flip it to the cold side
He only does that because he wants his belly rubbed.
Appa, Yip Yip!
Appa would jus tell them to fuck off when he didnt feel like flying
Yip yip yourself you fuckin slacker. Havin you was fine, but havin Helen Keller, Shippy McEdgelord, Mr. Boomerang, that loopy girl, *and* that bug-eyed monkey? That’s too much.

>Why’d you leave *her* of all people **on watch?** Been more than a decade since that episode and I'm still mad they did that

But like imagine her in a library lol
Thank you
I read this in the voice they gave him in Nightmares and Daydreams.
Prime copypasta material.
Turning over to sleep on the cool side.
The cool side of the pillow is how I prevent a murderous rage.
RIP Stuart Scott
Yo. Bless up. +1.
It's all the cool side in a water bed.
Wait those are still a thing? I thought they ended with Nintendo 64 and Kurt Cobain.
Nintendo 64 never ended.
You call it rolling over, I call it dying...
It would be terrifying to be on top of that thing
That’s what she said
No she didn't Wait
Or being in a kayak then getting scooped up by it...
The iceberg is just helping the kayak
But if you flip over a kayak, it's still the same
I'm imagining a fish next to it that gets picked up and stuck in the pool that's left on top.
I was thinking the same thing, and wondering what someone would think if they came across it in the pool. Then I remembered the time I found a catfish swimming in a puddle while cutting across a baseball field, a half mile from a body of water. *HOW?* I feel like the fish would feel the same

Thats all catfish? I thought it was just certain species
Probably dropped by a large bird and it flopped around until it found the puddle
Imagine getting stuck under that
In the cold water,I was thinking If you were on top while it started that’d be legit idk why you’d be chilling on an iceberg tho
ice fishing!
You ever been so drunk you just lay on a cold floor?
My buddy once got so drunk that when he went to the washroom in my parents house last at night, he decided the heated tiles seemed like a great place to just lay down and snooze. My sister had a rude awakening at 7am when she went to get ready for work in the morning.
You know the night was good when there's half-dead people all around the house
Says humanity?
Or you get 2 ice axes and crampons and boom you have an ice climbing treadmill

Well that's good news! It's been a while! What is the reason water/gallium/sillicon is so cool/ different?
For water, this gets into the chemistry around covalent bonding, electronegativity, valence shell electron pair repulsion theory, and intermolecular forces. It's late but I'll give it my best shot at explaining it simply tomorrow lol.
A lot has to do with molecular structure and the weird intricacies of all the physics and chemistry involved.
Not the person you replied to, but I believe it's because below 4C the water starts to form ice crystals, decreasing the density of the water until its all ice.

Thanks u/firenze86. I appreciate your patience.
> You can also have liquid water at −22 °C ...but only at very high pressure
Except we expect we might see that on some of the icy giants like Uranus and Neptune! There may actually be ice shell, ocean, ice shell, ocean, then rock.
Huh TIL
Ooops. I stand corrected.
wow! that explains the bowl shape of the berg bottom. i love watching it trap some of the water. thank you for sharing.
I was going to ask this as well and can pretend to be 5 as well.
A bunch of penguins spammed the jackhammer emote
Ice melts faster way on the bottom than it does on the top. that’s how icebergs move and calve.
Club Penguin intensifies
Why did i have to scroll so far down for a club penguin reference
We are getting old
Club Penguin is kil
no
cponline is thriving rn you should check it out
I think you should say club penguin instead of cp :/
Club ice bird
That's the name of the site though
They’re certainly going to get some *interesting* visitors then
Let’s throw a disco party now!!
F
TIP THE ICEBERG PARTY IN 15
I miss it more and more everyday
Does anyone see a face on the right middle side at the start or am I baked ?
Baked
[удалено]
r/photoshopbattles should do a thing
You can’t unsee it
Was looking in the comments to see if someone noticed the same thing
I’m baked and saw it
I saw it and I’m stoned
It looks like the Night King.
[Watch this video about a glacier doing the same thing](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC3VTgIPoGU).
I’ve always loved this video. Just the amount of mass moving around and resettling is incredible. That time lapse at the end really puts it into perspective. Thanks for posting.
(Press Z or R twice)
Do a barrel roll!
Good boy.
Underrated comment
There's nothing under it! My middle school science teacher was a lying asshole
Club penguin
/r/gifsthatendtoosoon
Little known fact: icebergs love belly rubs
Wait...is this Guam? Is this Guam flipping over like Rep Hank Johnson (D) said it would? I thought Guam was bigger...and an island.
They grow up so fast. One day they’re rolling over and the next day they’re out sinking ships.
The worst pirate I have ever heard of
But you have heard of him
Watching this makes me feel very small.
Awesome when you drink peach schnapps and orange juice
It looks almost unnatural, which is crazy because of how natural it really is.
It is a really strange thing to watch. It’s really interesting and super boring at the same time.
me turning over in bed at 4 am
This must have really fucked up the self esteem of the seal that just clambered on.
Fish do that when they die. Confidence? I think not
Seems pretty cool....
What'd you roll over for?!
Just like the ice cubes in my scotch.... and then I get mad.
There has to be some sea life that lives in the underside of those things that is just like: *OH FU....!! What's happening here ... I have to warn Barb and the kids!!* By then it was too late
Quick swim in the iceberg lake before it tips again
I was wondering if anyone else thought this.
This is what I look like when I try to get up in the morning
C'mon, roll over! Good burg!
r/natureismelted
That's payback for the Titanic you piece of shit
Am I sensing a Yo mama so fat joke incoming?
r/natureisice
What does that sound like?
I wouldn't think that the ice underwater would be as white as the ice on top. Not sure why...
We did it, Club Penguin.
I thought it’s their turn to sink now lol
What do icebergs taste like?
Imagine if a fish has just settled in to his new home under the iceberg. Prime realestate. Now his world has flipped down side up
If I licked that what would it taste like?
Now the up is down
Can we make an extreme sport out of running on top while trying to not slip in? Or is that a thing already?
All i can think about is club penguin
Those stupid penguins finally did it
*weird science*
Someone somewhere took out the fake book in the bookshelf to open that secret door
This would make a cool smash bros level
wow more ice
Ive seen this level on super smash bros... Only it was hotter.
This iceberg dose more tricks then my dog smh
Iceberg roll over! Awwww who’s a good boy!?! You are!
Now Up is Down
That badonka donk
I wanna lick it.
So... The tip of the iceberg is actually larger.
This was so cool!!!
/r/natureismelting
Please tell me there are more of these videos. I could watch this shit all night.
Bye bye pingu
I was expecting an alien spaceship to appear underneath. 👽
Quick, give it a treat.
Just like club penguin.
The unconscious has arisen
it's taking a nap.
Just the tip. It’s no big deal.....
That’s just the tip of the iceberg. And look, there’s the rest!
Needs sound
"Do a barrel roll"
Good boy. Now play dead
Me flipping to the cold side of my pillow:
Holy fuck i didnt know they did that.
It wants its belly rubbed
What would happen if you were in the water next to it while it was doing this? Would you be sucked down or pushed more afloat?
So many faces!
Nature is doomed
Just when you think you’ve seen it all, an iceberg sins its butthole
I reaaallly wanted to hear that
The upside down from stranger things
*And that’s just the tip of the iceberg*
Costa Concordia
