I think your problem is not with what is on the scales, but the scales themselves...
Am being dense again today. My brain is stretched to the limit by a combination of payroll calculations x 350 odd people and my g/f having a neurotic moment par excellence.
Great point Bloodline, it's the scales themselves... As Blob has stated here before, the laws of the universe haven't remained constant during it's entire existence. Also, anything
outside the universe (or indeed existing before/after by our perception) isn't bound by the laws we take for granted. One of which is time. Effectively there is no before, or is no after. Timescales become as meaningless as the notion of Santa Claus.
Anyway, an easier concept for me is understanding Blob's quote (and once again I'm damn glad to see you back on form Blob):
It was from Bladerunner, just as the character played by Rutgar Hauer dies and releases the dove. Legend has it that Hauer actually delivered those lines off the cuff as they weren't in the script, taking Harrison Ford by surprise.
However, I should point out that Blob took poetic license with the deep fried Mars bar bit.
