"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Well, I'm back. Usually, I get drawn down a rabbit hole of UTube videos, but this time it was The Far Side. Just spent an hour or more perusing my copy of The PreHistory of the Far Side looking for the characters in the Artemis II photo. Didn't take long to find Nerd Boy, he's on the cover. BTW, if you have even the slightest appreciation for The Far Side, you should have a copy of this book in your library. Another BTW, did you know Gary Larson didn't come up with the name The Far Side? It was someone at the syndication company. But, it was being syndicated, "So they could have called it 'The Revenge of the Zuchinni People' for all I cared!" :-)
I'd caption the top one, "It stopped squeaking!" On the Far Side one, is that the famous Thag? Probably not, he's sorta shredded, but maybe it's pre-thagomized.
It's good that the Artemis crew landed safely, but ... ... toilet issues? Seriously?
ReplyDeleteAlso ... they had problems communicating because mission control and the ship had different versions of Outlook.
OUTLOOK?!?!?!?!?!???!
SMH.
Yeah, kids today, right?
