I thought the article "The Theory of Everything" was not one of the better ones we have read so far. It seemed like string theory was too broad and complex a topic for a single article and none of the perspectives on string theory were given the right amount of attention to be properly understood.

In addition the use of swear words was an unnecessary distraction. This crude language took away from the article's credibility. It gave the impression that the article was trying to be "edgy", in the same way that it was portraying string theory to be. Instead, it came off as insincere and immature.

To it's credit though, the article did remain interesting by keeping the researchers in perspective and not just talking about the research.
