Light year

From Illogicopedia

The term light year is an imprecise colloquialism used in various ways depending upon context. Examples include:

  • Any year that is not a Leap Year, having 365 days or less, may be called a light year due to the lower Alcohol content.
  • Any calendar year in which more people are on a diet than not. The subsequent loss of mass causes The Earth to spin faster on it's Axis of Evil, thus annoying Kim Jong-Il. The last such light year occurred 2001, when the government of Paraguay paid a tax bonus to all it's citizens who lost 10kgs. Thanks to various attempts to obtain this bonus, many male Paraguayans are now missing arms, legs and testicles.
  • The term light year is also used as a measure of time equal to precisely 2,932,170.4 years. Commonly used to measure the duration of Bob Dole's visit to Holland in the late -7*10^20th century.
  • Science fiction autors insist on using the term light year as a measure of distance. The term Parsec suffers the same fate. What is next, the inch? This practice is preposterous and unscientific.
  • It could also refer to light-f***. That is where you fuck yourself or someone else at the speed of light.
