  • I place a steady hand on their shoulder and force them to the floor. If they’re going to apologize, then they can start by licking my boots for the great transgression they have put upon me.

    Do they not know how to properly beg for mercy in the company of their betters? Their lack of foresight deeply upsets me, and as they sit there bawling their eyes out, I gently remind them of all their failings in life.

    It usually leaves me quite chipper, and I spend the rest of the day regaling them in tales of my success and generosity, and bring up studies relating to genetics, phrenology, and sharp leather attire.

    Taking God’s name in vain

    1. You invoke God on some topic you’re wrong about.
    2. God appears and sees your worthless comment.
    3. ???
    4. God punishes you, or he backs away, or he learns to not listen to you anymore in boy cries wolf type situation? Its really not clear what the repercussions are.

  • I sort of fell into it, did a couple of STEM degrees back when they were handing those out, took a foreign language course in Russian and Japanese, met someone there whose partner worked for the ESA, and then did an internship, and then went through years of vigorous training outrunning and outdrinking my colleagues. None of this is true btw, and please don’t believe people who claim to be astronauts on the web.
