well maybe if you miss the moon you just keep going

lag∞n, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 13:36 (eleven years ago) link

even if you miss your dead corpse will eventually land among the stars, assuming you reached escape velocity in the first place and then avoided getting captured by any other bodies in the solar system.

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you will float in the vast, empty wasteland of space until you die utterly, utterly alone.

I kind of love creepy lighting hug Jesus. He just needs some glowing red eyes.

Chances are you won't even reach escape velocity of the earth, and will orbit round and round with the space junk in an ever decreasing circles until you burn to a crisp on atmospheric re-entry.

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, this is still a run-on sentence.

ms. cookie (carl agatha), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 13:39 (eleven years ago) link

depends on what you use to shoot, prob wont get more than a couple feet tbh, thats called jumping

even if you miss you'll still have undine ballerinas haunting your birdbath

it is inconceivable you would reach the stars

i mean do you have any idea how inhospitable space is to dead organic tissue?

and how energetically improbably it is that you would leave the solar system?

Kind of hate the fact this is appearing everywhere on my feed at the moment. Not that Chris Brown isn't a despicable little thug who should be ignored, of course. Lots of people losing their shit over the word "clusterfuck" for some reason (used incorrectly in this case). Lots of people applauding the article for its honesty, even though there are reams of articles going back that have done the same. Lots of people banging on about how shit r'n'b-pop is (viz: "Even if you like this kind of music, it's still shit" stance the review takes). Article's been tweeted by the NME and now the writer's courting them to let her write for them cos of a completely biased un-objective review that does nothing but say "Chris Brown is a dick, R'n'B sucks". She'll probably be editor by next year.

What does space do to dead organic tissue?

maybe it's a Hartlepool scarf? (onimo), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 14:33 (eleven years ago) link

yeah i've seen that. lol at "clusterfuck".

is it from metro?

caek, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 14:34 (eleven years ago) link

xp, low temperature and pressure and UV radiation photodissociates the molecules. not even dust would remain.

^^ my chris brown review

caek, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 14:35 (eleven years ago) link

"catastrophic" used twice in a 100 word review. I hate it even more for turning me into a music review snob.

Quickly, take hold of my hand, asshole! (dog latin), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 14:35 (eleven years ago) link

I get why that review is irritating, but OTOH fuck Chris Brown

haha, i'm imagining a really well-written, very objective review of the music on the album with the caveat ",but OTOH fuck Chris Brown" written after every sentence.

Quickly, take hold of my hand, asshole! (dog latin), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 14:50 (eleven years ago) link

Dom, if we remember correctly, is the guy who used to post his fantasies about punching women in the face on ILX, so if he's defending Chris Brown/attacking that reviewer, it might not be because "racism is bad, kids."

what's funny about the use of the word clusterfuck? it's been around for half a century.

contenderizer, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 15:54 (eleven years ago) link

she doesn't know what it means.

caek, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 17:28 (eleven years ago) link

I'm still trying to deduce what "skitzy" is supposed to mean

OTOH, fuck Chris Brown

keeping things contextual (DJP), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 17:56 (eleven years ago) link

I mean really, at the end of the day it can't be stressed enough that Chris Brown is fucking horrible and no one would actually be buying any of his music right now in a perfect world because he'd be in jail

keeping things contextual (DJP), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 17:58 (eleven years ago) link

skitzy = sketchy + ditzy?

Mordy, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 17:59 (eleven years ago) link

i think my deal with this thread is secretly i want to be inspired

Misc. Carnivora (Matt P), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 18:18 (eleven years ago) link

Chris Brown is horrible, but that review is terrible.

Also, I have a gut feeling that Chris Brown is basically one of the kids from Bunny and the college researcher's class for problem kids in season 4 of The Wire.

LISTEN TO THIS BRAD (Nicole), Tuesday, 31 July 2012 23:45 (eleven years ago) link

y'know, anyone could've pulled that 'review' to pieces, but dom did a typically thorough job and went the extra distance by twisting the knife with the pretty hilarious racism angle. you may not like the man but you have to respect the craft.

definitions of "hilarious" appear to vary quite a bit from person to person
