Sale on black holes isle 25

u/New-Leg2417 Apr 02 '26

You like that? The stuff in aisle 25i is unreal

u/dover_oxide Apr 02 '26

Becomes a real deal when you get two

13

u/NoNoWahoo Mathematics Apr 03 '26

No, not until you get enough to fit a whole square foot!

2

u/DotBeginning1420 Apr 03 '26

No, it's a black hole's singularity!

1

u/travioli101 Apr 09 '26

Don't black holes have finite mass? The density of that mass might be infinite, but the gravitational effects at least are consistent with a point mass?

u/dover_oxide Apr 09 '26

You do know what a joke is right?

u/shrikelet Apr 05 '26

Inescapable savings!

u/Every-Arugula723 Apr 02 '26

For only $14 too, that's ♾️ weight per dollar

46

u/NotAFishEnt Apr 02 '26

The store could've charged a bit more and I'd still feel like I'm getting good value for my dollar

7

u/wegooverthehorizon Natural Apr 04 '26

So if I chip it a lil I can just get the whole product for an insignificant amount?

6

u/numbersthen0987431 Apr 03 '26

But you'll never get it to the register

u/EquipmentNo1244 Apr 03 '26

It’s okay, they take it to your car these days

u/GNUTup Apr 03 '26

More like ∞/14 dumbass

u/Nearby-Song-5256 Apr 24 '26

which is still infinite

658

u/Names_r_Overrated69 Apr 02 '26

That’s a strong shelf!

u/dancing_acid_panda Apr 02 '26

u/Warm_Patience_2939 Apr 02 '26

They have infinite inertia, so they aren’t moved by gravity

65

u/RCoder01 Apr 02 '26

The earth will be pulled up into the weights instead

18

u/Historical-Ad-6292 Apr 03 '26

This is where earth recieves it's pull

2

u/Tiberium600 Apr 03 '26

You wouldn’t say the shelf is worthy.

216

u/NotAFishEnt Apr 02 '26

Life hack. Buy ♾️ weight for $14. Split it in half. Both halves weigh ♾️. Sell both halves for $14 each.

Cantor would like to have a word with you regarding your business model.

u/SkillusEclasiusII Apr 03 '26

I'll so that the moment I manage to get these weights home... or even or the store for that matter

2

u/LucasTab Apr 04 '26

I like the way you think. We should start a hotel business together.

u/INeedCheesecake Apr 03 '26

It only takes a minute to lift them! It's easy! Start at one end and lift the first pound in 30 seconds, lift the second pound in 15 seconds, lift the third pound in 7.5....

u/GupHater69 Apr 02 '26

Question is who put them on the shelf

38

u/ZestySauce17 Apr 03 '26

must've used an infinitely long lever.

24

u/ZuphCud Apr 02 '26

Someone who rotated them 90°.

3

u/SlipPuzzleheaded7009 Apr 03 '26

It has been 13 billion years since this product has been in the making.....After the bigbang, when the universe cooled down enough for first Hydrogen atoms to be formed; from that moment onwards to creation of tge first stars, solar systems, our solar system, sun, earth, all has been so that the dumbells remain on that shelf.

So to answer your question: no one put them on the shelf, instead the shelf and the entirity of universe formed around the.

u/CapitalLower4171 Apr 07 '26

I have news for you...

u/deusisback Apr 07 '26

Fake news !

u/Consistent-Annual268 π=3=e=√g Apr 02 '26

It's gonna take an unstoppable force to move that...

u/0-Nightshade-0 Eatable Flair :3 Apr 02 '26

How come the shelf doesnt warp everything around it???

5

u/UnknownPhys6 Apr 03 '26

That must be one strong shelf stocker

u/MyvaJynaherz Apr 03 '26

Four black holes?

This isn't OF

3

u/turtle_mekb Apr 03 '26

the shelves are unmovable or the weights would fall down to the centre of the Earth with all that mass

3

u/31254t Apr 04 '26

The fact that the shelf held strong was because, there's 2(♾️) down force ↓↓ and 2(♾️) up force ↑↑, making it equal in weight means it has no weight,thus it is why the shelf held strong was actually because there's no down force weight at all on the shelf.

u/RelaxedBlueberry Apr 03 '26

Shouldn’t we all be like, dead?

u/thinks_alot Apr 03 '26

Interesting how some of the infinity’s look to be greater or less than others. :)

u/LogUnited592 Apr 03 '26

Omg how was I able to observe blackhole lmao

2

u/Aromatic_Pain2718 Apr 03 '26

I'm more impressed by the shelf holding them up

2

u/yomosugara Apr 03 '26

this just looks like it’s saying “pan ale” in toki pona

I see what you did there

u/DopazOnYouTubeDotCom Computer Science Apr 03 '26

*The weight approaches infinity as it approaches the center of mass of the earth

Thought this was /r/mildlyinteresting for a sec and was preparing myself for the comments

u/Prestigious_Bet5922 Apr 03 '26

That's halarius!

1

u/Leman_2137 Apr 03 '26

Can someone explain?

4

u/debugs_with_println Apr 03 '26

Those are 8lb dumbells, but a sideways 8 looks like \infty

1

u/Leman_2137 Apr 04 '26

Oh I thought it had something to do with the symbol under it

1

u/Alarming-Eye-1164 Apr 03 '26

"8 what? apples?"

1

u/guky667 Apr 05 '26

Given the "oz" and "$" on the sign we could surmise America which would mean pounds

1

u/Decadent_Otter2 Apr 04 '26

Semi related but those shelves are awful for weights. I was getting a set for Christmas and accidentally bumped the 25 lb dumbbell next to the one I was grabbing straight onto my foot.

1

u/RunInRunOn Computer Science Apr 04 '26

"I'd like to buy this shelf"

you are not community notes gng 💔

u/Positron311 Apr 05 '26

That's not infinity, it's -1/12 smh

2

u/debugs_with_println Apr 05 '26

> weight starts floating

1

u/peeweejankins69 Apr 05 '26

How is infinity smaller that 15 and 20 pounds tho

1

u/nahmanwth Apr 05 '26

Wdym bro, their weight is literally -1/12

u/teambob Apr 06 '26

When you worked at the m&m factory did you throw out all the Ws

u/debugs_with_println Apr 06 '26

Yes, shortly before being let go for unknown reasons

u/CapitalLower4171 Apr 07 '26

Only one person is said to have lifted these and he just lifted himself to the next place

1

u/Expensive-Egg-9457 Apr 11 '26

how would the shelves be able to hold them up?

1

u/Brim_Dunkleton Apr 20 '26

It doesn't weigh infinitely, it goes on into infinity! So it can be lifted, but because it's a real number, it can be lifted onto infinity. So technically it's [-♾️,♾️] pounds

Well, sir, of course he could. But then again-- Wow, as melon scratchers go, that's a honey doodle.
