Short version? Two camps of physicists hate each other. So one camp theorizes as a theoretical actual contribution to the academic work that the reason the LHC is broken is because the universe's powers that be hate the other camp of physicists and sent the particle the LHC is trying to discover into the future so that the project will fail.

Yeah, really.

Stuff this cracktacular makes me want to love physics.
