more like a billion, unless you went to school a billion years ago.

When I said "like" I clearly meant, I think but I'm not sure it was so long ago that I heard this, like a billion years ago or something

Naaah. More like about 4 billion, I think.
Either way, none of us will be here.

You want me to bitch slap him next time he turns up uninvited to one of my parties?

I want you to punch him so his glasses fall off then I want you to stomp on them.
Like a REAL bully would do.

You'd better start saving up for some new ones then.

well stop being a know-it-all twat and maybe you can keep them safe

I'm totally looking forward to doing this
After I've stomped his glassess, while he's crawling on the floor trying to find them by touch I'm going to nod my head like yeah, move my hips like yeah and totally throw a party in the USA.

In a billion years the sun will have scorched the earth to buggery.

I think you'll find that this detailed and legitimate reference website
says 1.1 billion. www.frontiernet.net/~docbob/sun.htm

But I think the difference is between when the sun get's hot enough to burn away the atmosphere to when it actually envelopes the earth

I think the fact that you chose this website proves you're a massive fucking flaming gay.

Ah - fair enough.
On the other hand, Wikipedia gives about 5 billion years before it becomes a red giant: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun#Life_cycle . But I know not everyone trusts Wikipedia, so I checked NASA. They say 5 billion, too www.nasa.gov/worldbook/sun_worldbook.html .
