- [Megan, Ponytail and Hairy are playing beach volleyball. Megan has her arms outreached, like she had just set the ball. The volleyball is shown three times: once above the net, once heading towards Ponytail, and once after bouncing off Ponytail’s head. Wavy lines are shown on the ground to show sand.]
- Ponytail: Ooh, a strike-slip fault!
- Caption: Why seismologists are bad at beach ball volleyball
Discussion
Possibly just a coincidence, but an earthquake struck off the coast of California yesterday.[1] If anyone seismologists were playing beach volleyball in the vicinity at the time.... 172.69.67.11 19:57, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- yo, Tori, you're from California. any seismologist friends that were playing volleyball? Caliban (talk) 20:41, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- haha, no. i do know some friends how play volleyball, but they aren’t interested in seismology (i think that one of them wants to become a prosecutor) [edit: i don’t think that the earthquake yesterday would’ve been inspired this comic strip-it hit during my 3rd period (about 10:45 ish) and I don’t think that Randall would’ve churned out a comic that fast] 42.book.addictTalk to me! 20:54, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
Ooh. Maybe I'll finally learn some stuff about the moment tensor beachball diagrams! Fortran (talk) 20:32, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
I think there's also a joke in there about faulting in volleyball? BunsenH (talk) 22:53, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
Question is, what do the beachballs depicted in the comic indicate in beachball diagram format? Is it accurate to the joke? 172.69.7.193 23:39, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
Usually played indoors? I'm pretty sure beach balls are supposed to be used at the beach. 172.69.67.137 16:42, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
