Multiply by 2.

Now there are 6 Stooges.

Call them Moe, Larry, Curly Joe, Moe-2, Larry-2, and Curly Joe-2.

Arrange them in a circle in this order so it ends up with Curly Joe-2 next to Moe, and each Stooge equidistant from the Stooge on either side of him.

Face each Stooge away from the center of the circle with the plane of his body tangent to the circle at that point -- his point.

Now, after invoking the laws of quantum entanglement for Stooges and while maintaining the integrity of the circle throughout, move each Stooge farther and farther out into the world in the direction he's facing along the infinite extension of the radius emanating from the center of the circle and passing through him.

Stop when each Stooge is on a different continent.

Now rotate the circle a few degrees around any diameter so Moe, Larry, Curly Joe, Moe-2, Larry-2, and Curly Joe-2 are no longer poor slob white males from the lumpen loser class, but are now each from totally different classes, nationalities, races, genders, etc. (name your poison/parameter).

Now, poke Moe in the eyes, drift back to a safe place on Moonbase Alpha, whip out your pocket Hubble, and watch quantum entanglement at the level of human society as it plays out in the globalization of the circle of bitching at each other over SOMEBODY ELSE'S damn fucking bullshit.

This is your brain NOT on drugs.
