How are you making it stand on your head when you're sideways?
This picture was obviously take in one of those spinning space stations that create artificial gravity. So really, the centrifugal force is forcing the small plush animal down on his head while forcing the camera downward in a perpendicular direction.

Or maybe he was in one of those slowly rotating rooms with a fixed camera, like for that scene from 2001.

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving is not for you.

Someone showed my mechanics lecturer that so he put it in a lecture about circular motion a few weeks ago. We clapped. It was good.

I would imagine it would be a good lecture with xkcd involved.

I showed the same one to my Physics teacher when he was starting Uniform Circular Motion and he had a good laugh.

I'll have to update as well, as I need to try and find a plush I have that fits (I know I have a dog, but I need to check to see if I have a wolf, since I have a wolf calendar, painting and blanket all hung up in my room).

Will update later. Have to check out a car before I can really try and search for a plush.

I got my physics/calc teacher addicted to xkcd as well.

I don't think he'd be addicted to it after that, but it would rock so hard if he used that comic in part of the circular motion area. He did save it after all when I showed it to him :P

but yeah, I'll edit into this post if I have a pic soon (which hopefully I will)

EDIT: no pictar tonight. I need to find a good plush, as well, as have more time to find it. but nonetheless, I will succeed!

That's the funniest "xkcd" installment I've ever seen.

My favorite is the one with Little Bobby Tables. Our company's database director has this one taped to his office window, even.

Yeah, I showed that one (and the sandwich one) to my CS professor; he in turn showed it in class to point out why it's important to clean up user input before using it. I already knew this rule because Richard K. Niner pointed it out when he was helping me code the school newspaper's website I'm working on.

I like how you have to check. Burglars must love you. ;)

I would do the same but no one else at work know SQL...And I bet a high schooler would try it.

I thank my friend for allowing me to borrow her very realistic "plush."

oh how I wish my dog were that small XD

Octan: Well, I haven't done anything regarding plush animals for a long time now, since I'm 17 and all. :P
