The smell! Could you imagine the smell of being enveloped in warm chocolate!!

Sound Blows my Mind

Therefore, without any further ado.

String theory tells us the Universe is comprised of vibrating filaments that make up the blocks that make up atoms (as far as I grok the scene). The building blocks of our entire existence/Universe/World is sound. In the beginning was the Word...
