I think 'cracked science fiction' might be science fiction that has some cracks in its logic but still manages to be interesting. For example, a story where the science behind a teleportation device isn't fully explained or seems a bit wonky, but the overall plot and characters are engaging enough to keep you reading. It could also be a way to describe a more experimental form of science fiction that doesn't follow the traditional formulas.
The works of J. G. Ballard can also be considered cracked science fiction. In his stories like 'Crash', he explores really extreme and disturbing concepts. The idea of finding sexual and psychological allure in car crashes is very far from the normal science - fiction themes. His writing often takes ordinary elements and twists them into something very strange and cracked, making the reader question the boundaries of what is acceptable in the genre.
It could refer to pulp fiction that has a broken or damaged physical form, like the pages are cracked. Pulp fiction originally was a type of inexpensive fiction magazine or paperback novel. So 'cracked pulp fiction' might be an old, worn - out copy of such a publication.
One of the best cracked science stories is the discovery of penicillin. Alexander Fleming accidentally left a petri dish open and noticed that a mold was inhibiting the growth of bacteria. This led to the development of the first antibiotic, revolutionizing medicine.
Well, that's a tough one. The contents of the briefcase and why it was cracked are never explicitly revealed. It could be anything from valuable jewels to something more symbolic or abstract that's up to us to interpret.
I'm not entirely sure as the phrase is rather unclear. It could potentially refer to a situation where the plot or mystery in a pulp fiction story is 'cracked' (solved or understood) after some time has passed, perhaps in the late hours. But without more context, it's hard to be specific.
The detection of gravitational waves is an important recent story. Scientists had long predicted the existence of gravitational waves as predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity. When they were finally detected, it opened a new window into observing the universe, allowing us to study extremely violent and energetic events such as the collision of black holes from a completely new perspective.
There might be self - published novels today that are trying to capture the essence of pulp fiction but with a unique, 'cracked' twist. They could have stories that are set in a post - apocalyptic world where the rules are 'cracked' and the characters are morally ambiguous, much like the classic pulp fiction characters, but with a more modern, edgy feel. However, it's a bit hard to point out specific titles as it's not a widely recognized and defined category yet.
The 'agents of cracked fanfic' could refer to various entities. It might be the writers who create these unique and often unorthodox fanfictions. They are like agents in the sense that they bring these stories to life. Another possibility could be the fans who promote and spread these cracked fanfics, acting as agents to increase their popularity. It could also potentially refer to any characters within the fanfic that are central to the 'cracked' or zany elements of the story.
