They just make all this stuff up, release a press release, then giggle and do another couple shots of tequila.

How the hell do they get info on any measurements from that thing? It's 11 billion miles from earth, and hurdling away from us at 38,000 mph. What the hell kind of antenna do they have on that thing, and can I get a mini version for my cell phone.

I call shenanigans.

It's FM.






****ing magic

Things like that always get my gears and cogs moving
in my head

I can hear the creeking and squeaking all the way down in Santa Maria.
(And thought I smelled a little smoke.....)

Yeah! First thing I thought of!
Dibs on the bald chick!

I call double-dibs, that cancels out a previous dib.

I see this and raise you this:

This is SO 'Forbidden Planet'.

If you've seen it, you'll get this.

The first one, the Jupiter one, was pretty cool; this one ^^ sounds 50's fake.

While you're figuring out how change to the settings on your new pedal, these guys are figuring out how:

"Readings taken ... last year revealed a near-100-fold jump in the number of protons occupying every cubic metre of space."

Cool.

Oh my God... we're surrounded by protons!

Are they friendly?
Do they believe in self-determination for less advanced races?
Do Proton women look good by earth standards?

all of that with 68K of memory.
today dumb asses with 16 GB smartphones can't even spell "their" right.

 

[ext1jdh]

"there"

 

[babatube]

just imagine when the aliens hear the golden record with chuck berry then come to earth and see miley cyrus.
boy they are going to be disappointed!

 

[ext1jdh]

It's more likely that Miley will be either very old or very dead by the time they arrive. That is, if they think we're worth visiting.

It's more likely that Miley will be either very old or very dead by the time they arrive. That is, if they think we're worth visiting.

they probably have light speed ships.
so when the aliens hear chuck berry they will decide earth is worth visiting.
it's gonna take them one year to get here(thru worm holes and such...)
then they gonna see her...
we are doomed!

 

[hecube]

Well, Chuck is still around...

Well, Chuck is still around...

that is debatable

Voyager 1 becomes the first human-made object to leave our solar system.

Technically, I think Fezz was the first.

dumb asses with 16 GB smartphones can't even spell "they're" right.

*FIXED*

 

[babatube]

that is debatable

at least he is in orbit.

still better than miley cyrus

 

[babatube]

Technically, I think Fezz was the first.


*FIXED*

we said first human made object...

 

[RedSkwirrell]

Good point.
I've long suspected that Fezz was the result of previous alien visitations.
