It might have to be a very unusually-weighted hammer to be propped up quite THAT far out (unless the photo angle is deceptive and the head is further in than it looks), but the general idea is sound. Center of gravity really does work that way.
But wouldn't the overall force on the ruler still be downward, thus causing it to slide? I mean, friction can only do so much, and it's really close to the edge.
If you mean rotate off the table, it looks like the center of gravity is on the left side of the edge, at that point friction makes it harder for it to fall off.
True...still.
Probably took a lot of attempts to get it right if it is real. The angle is annoying because it makes it hard to tell where exactly stuff is.
More predictable cringeworthy weeaboo crap(NSFW):

^That's not weeaboo crap. Even the creepiest, most obsessive shut-in weeaboos wouldn't sink that low.
I honestly have no words. Nothing I can say here can communicate just how fucking creepy that is.
Why is NAMBLA a real thing and not just an off color joke from the Daily Show or something? Why?
Think of it this way: in order to be held up, the ruler has to be experiencing a support force on that tiny contact area.
Now think of that contact area as a pivot. If the system's center of gravity is to the right of that contact area, its weight generates torque to rotate it to the right, and it'll lose that contact area and support force, and then fall off. If the COG is directly under the contact it's pulling straight against the pivot, there's no rotation and it's stable -- if it's to the left it'll be rotated against the surface and is also stable.
The neat thing about that is that if you get a stable scenario, it's really stable. Like, you can prod it around a bit and it'll just swing back into equilibrium.
EDIT: Also, oh my goodness creepy pedo crap.
I think this sums up my reaction.
I'm going with "welp"
I've seen so much crap like that I can't even muster up rage anymore.
I'm thinking you don't know what Boku no Chico is.
All I know of it is the "YOOOOOOOOO" rant.
^^It's Boku no Pico. That's classic troll lore.
Uhh . . . fucking hell . . .
Let's lighten this thread up with a picture of Mr. Rogers flipping two birds.
^Oh my god yes.
One wonders if Dexter designed those dumb mechs they used in the last Matrix movie.
Another /d/ image, taken from an amusing manga about a man and a lamia:
^^^^YES.
(made purely as a friendly joke with no ill will and also because it's 2:30 in the morning and i have bad ideas and no self control at 2:30 in the morning)
So many gigantic possibly insightful posts, and nearly all of them going straight over my head.
I must try that next winter
but forzare
i am not the ponies
Fencing while compulsively doing circus tricks? Yep, sounds like Alex.
i am probably not the ponies
I can't read that link right now. Summary please? (though, I'll probably be able to read it in a couple hours, so it doesn't really matter)
A love hole, Pedobear edition.
A Boku no Pico themed love hole, to boot. Made by Japan's NAMBLA chapter.
It sounds like a joke, but it's apparently real.
Fug bonies :DDDDD
