Arrr matey! For many a moon, it be said that a black hole with all that spin and charge, bein' too hefty, be naught but a mathematical mirage! But lo! A new proof be settin' sail, showin' it be as real as a parrot on me shoulder! Avast!

Ahoy there, me hearties! Gather 'round, fer I bring ye a tale from the depths of the cosmic seas! For many a decade, ‘twas thought that a black hole could ne’er spin or harbor charge equal to its mass, a notion as firm as Davy Jones' locker! The learned folk of the scholarly seas deemed it a mathematical impossibility, like findin’ treasure without a map.

But lo and behold! A band o’ clever scallywags has sailed forth with a new proof, turnin’ that old tale on its head! Aye, they’ve cracked the code, showin’ that indeed, a black hole can twirl and spark with electric glee as much as its hefty mass allows. It be like discoverin’ a mermaid in a barrel of rum—unexpected, yet delightful!

So raise yer tankards high, me mateys, fer this revelation be as sweet as a siren’s song! Now we can ponder the mysteries of black holes with a twinkle in our eye and a jig in our step. Who knows what other wonders await us in the vast ocean of the universe? With this newfound knowledge, we’ll be sailin’ the cosmic waters, seekin’ treasure not of gold, but of knowledge, with naught but the stars as our guide!
