Oh no, I would never say that, that would be a personal attack. I was drawing the parallel between the gravitational influence of stellar and planetary bodies on each other and the friendship that others bestow upon you.

This is also how black holes are discovered. As you likely know, black holes are so dense that no light can escape their gravitational pull. This means, of course, that we can't see them. So we must rely on how the gravitational pull from the black holes effects the orbits of other stellar bodies to detect them. One has to wonder if black holes have any productive properties or if they simply have destructive properties.

Probably not worth it to get close enough to one to find out though...ha ha ha
