Are there any good ways of repealing the laws of thermodynamics?

On these hot days, the ice in my cup melts too fast and dilutes whatever I am drinking.

Well sure. First, one must realize that the “laws” were written by humans to describe a phenomenon. All you have to do is write an amendment upon the law that describes your intentions to modify the observed phenomenon.

Take the “Law of Thermodynamics” and amend that law with Drink Huggie. You can amend it further with Ice Chest. Continue your amendment to best suit your desire. Move to cooler climate is just another amendment.

So that’s what they’re called. I didn’t know that those contraptions even had a name (Drink Huggie).

Move to Cooler Climate is not a viable alternative.

How about an amendment that states: Hire servant with ice machine.

Maybe with sufficient energy you can modify the physical truths that natural laws such as the Law of Thermodynamics describe. But if the Big Bang did not have enough energy to do it, neither you, nor I, nor all of humanity come anywhere close to having what it takes. We’d hit this limit.

You could just make ice cubes using the liquid you are going to put them in (coke ice cubes for example). Its probably easier than rewriting the laws of physics.

Put dry ice in your drink.

Be careful thogh! Don’t let it touch your lip – or swallow it! .

There was a fad in nightclubs here of serving drinks with dry ice in them. Until one girl ended up in hospital having to have her stomach removed

@downtide Did she chug it? According to the article it was served with liquid nitrogen, not dry ice. Both are bad. They are pretty to watch if you let them bubble out first. Look at it. observe the cloud spilling over the table, talk about it, post pictures of it on FB. Just don’t chug it! .
How incredibly stupid naive she was!

It is as dumb as someone eating a cherry flambe dessert while it is still burning.

Oooo! Find the heaviest mug you own and store it in the freezer! Use it for cold drinks.

That will keep your drink cold without diluting it – or burning your stomach!

No.

Unlike your favorite politician, Mother Nature can not be bought.

You could try to convince the house republicans that it was Obamas’ idea then they could vote 39 times to repeal it or, as a last resort, defund it.

@rojo That should work as well on the Law of Thermodynamics as it has for House Republicans on Obamacare.
