I got a phone call from my grandmother today.
Her - "I've got good news."
Me - "Oh, what is it?"
Her - "Your great grandfather died yesterday"
Me - "..."

[Orange Wizard]

Your grandmother wouldn't happen to be BlackFlyme's grandmother, would she?

[Descan]

...

Your grandmother is a cun-... temptably horrible person.

Spoiler: Good news, everyone! (click to show/hide)

[AlleeCat]

Good news, everyone! You're going to a planet made entirely of angry wasps!

I'm not sure if Farsworth has ever said that on the show, but it wouldn't surprise me.

[Orange Wizard]

Pretty sure there was an episode with a planet of angry wasps. Or possibly bees. Might have been bees.

[Sirus]

Pretty sure it was bees. They were collecting space honey.

So somebody made this based on a 1:20~ clip of the alternate versions - that is, the ones that don't have an even 2:2 male:female split and yet 3 people wearing a dress - made by the animator of this series. Series is RWBY, for the uninformed.

[AlleeCat]

Man, that guy is rocking that dress.

... was he in great pain or experiencing terrible dementia or something? Was it good news?

[Eric Blank]

It is also possible the grandmother is demented and doesn't realize this is terrible news.

Well, he was really old and had difficulty speaking last time I saw him, which was a few years ago. He probably got worse...
I don't think it was bad news exactly, I just wasn't expecting it to be called good news.

Basic momentum ~= Creature_Size*Weapon_Weight/( (Creature_Size/100) + Weapon_Weight*100) )

For a steel axe, Weapon_Weight = 6.280, for a normal human Creature_Size ~= 7000, which results in about ~60 basic momentum points.
IF Creature_Size/100 >> Weapon_Weight*100 (big creature, small weapon), then Basic momentum => 100*Weapon_Weight.
IF Creature_Size/100 << Weapon_Weight*100 (small creature, big weapon), then Basic momentum => Creature_Size/100.
IF Creature_Size/100 == Weapon_Weight*100 (a giant with a steel axe?), then Basic momentum => 50*Weapon_Weight, or Creature_Size/200. (for a giant with a steel axe that would be ~314 momentum points).

That's a really funky formula. The more you go away from the (Creature_Size/100 == Weapon_Weight*100) equilibrium, the more momentum you gain, but at diminishing returns.

Also it sums volume and mass together, which makes an engineer in me cry.

Wait, what?

Ask Toady, he made that formula
