sandbox



The sandbox is an empty space in Wikipedia. Some content it is similar to Steyr AUG in shape.

Discovery

It was discovered in 1066 during the Battle of Hastings by the Edward Elric, a member of the cavalry from the English army. It has been said that the reason the English lost to the Norman is Elric's curiousity of the sandbox. Elric was supposed to help outflank the Norman a day prior to the actual battle but half way towards his destination, Elric saw a computer terminal on a tree and on the screen, Wikipedia's sandbox. Later he realised how lame this was as only an infant would be unaware how impossible this is. It also seems that only an infant would write such a pathetic attempt at comedy

Due to this reasoning, George W. Bush during his college years argued that Wikipedia was first invented long before the creation of the internet at CERN, by his one-time presidential opponent Al Gore. He of course didn't know what he was talking about. In actuality, Bush forced John F. Kerry to do this philosophy paper for him. It is unknown whether Kerry outsourced the work to another freshman at Yale. Nonetheless, Al Gore didn't live in before 1066. One possible explanation to this discrepancy is the existence of a time machine.

A recent discovery has come to light that the ancient monks of Bob worshipped the great child god He-who-is-very-big, and contemplated the Cosmic Sand. However, the Bobians were washed out in a huge tidal wave, which was just as well, seeing as how they lived in a sandcastle.

Also, Khomeini is strongly being suspected by the CIA of using the power of the sandbox to reach Iran's top administrator post.

Contrary to popular belief, the sand in the Sandbox makes an excellent pizza topping. It's true.

The most curious thing about Sandbox is its feature, which is nothing. Or everything. It is not you who plays in the sandbox; the sandbox plays with you, Young Grasshopper.

Experiment

 
Einstein

One of the most famous experiment concerning the sandbox was conducted by Albert Einstein. He postulated that the sandbox while it itself is nothing, consists of light particles or photon. Though the experiment failed, it helped him to understand what now known as the theory of relativity.

Almost a century later, Stephen Hawking presented another theory that is essentially contradicts Einstein's postulation. Hawking argues that the sandbox is not made of photon but rather, of nothingness. He is currently active in seeking contribution to fund his experiment. Steven Hawking wrote a scientific best seller called 'A Brief History in Time'. This book clearly explains the principles of travelling at light speed and effects that such travel has on time.

Mathematics

The mathematics of the sandbox is relatively easy if Hawking is right. It's zero when it's raining.

However, if Enstein is proven correct, the theory of relativity would prove useful. Also, Maxwell's equations might be something of help:

 

 

 

 

The sandbox equation is often expressed as

 

where   is the sand function, which is weighted in empty, isotropic space as

 

It should be noted that the divergence of water in flat space in the sandbox is zero:

 

When it doesn't rain, the density of the water in sandbox converges at:

 

Culture

The sandbox has a huge influence on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Vandalism.

Composition

 
The sandbox in operation outside of Wikipedia. This is a small sandbox with a 3 inch diameter secondary.

The sand box is 82% water, 10% sand, 3% sawdust and 5% foreign objects. This fact of course is not inline with both Einstein or Hawking's postulation. Such composition might also means nothingness consists of 82% water, 10% sand, 3% sawdust and 5% foreign objects, if it doesn't rain.

Several theorists insist that the sandbox is in fact 100% light. To complement their insistence that the sandbox is actually light and the fact of the known composition, they created the superstring theory. According to the theory, tiny strings make up everything in this universe. And through that, the stings form water, sand, sawdust and some other objects and these elements, with the right string frequency and amplitude, create the sandbox.
