I apologize on behalf of our idiots.

Now do the same thing for yours.

>>261726
Sweet! I was wonder how long it would take someone to notice that!

>>261729

Now, now, the Canadian Government has apologized for Bryan Adams on several occasions!

>It will be like watching a clip from Jackass: the NASA edition.

DO FUCKING WANT

>>261738
fuck, i lol'd

>Hope they don't through it out of orbit. What are they thinking?

DEAR GOD

wow... just wow... the retardation...

>This is so stupid. what if the moon falls out of orbit and crashes in to the earth and we blow up?

>>261766
That one made me lol really hard.

Also the one where some chick says, "What if the moon breaks up and blows up the earth! Good going US Goverment!"
Or something like that.

Bombing the moon is really fucking awesome.
Think on that, we are fucking bombing the fucking moon.

I can't wait to see a video of it.

NASA did Majora's Mask.

>97 millions
Inexpensive as fuck project, seriously.

doesn't the article explain why? why the hell are all these idiots rambling on about how pointless it is. the masses are so fucking uneducated.

I'm raged when journalists do science (and people) a disfavor publishing this kind of crap news, using blatantly exaggerated words.
And well, also raged at the huge ignorance of people.

In my country there are people over their 40s that don't have a fucking clue that humans have been sending spacecrafts to Mars for decades.

>>261790

I was just about to say that. Fuck, Americans pay that to make movies today.

>>261796
That's was my original point. In my head at least. I should have clearly stated that in my original post, yes.

All 400+ poster are super 'tards. Scratch that, I know some people with mental disabilities that get this shit. They are fucking walking furniture. They have no brains. They don't know that $79 million is chump change for the US Government, and that the possible gains of this kind of research could by far pay for that, and possibly open up new areas of research and business. Seventy-nine-million spent today, equals billions next year.
But most Americunt's being as short sighted as they are, don't get it.

>>261790
Look at all the shit DARPA can do with 97 million.

Tip-Based Nanofabrication (TBN) ($10 million)
Breakthrough Biological and Medical Technologies AKA DNA Editing to Make Supersoldiers ($7.5 Million)
Nanoscale/Bio-inspired and MetaMaterials ($10 million)
Atomic Scale Materials and Devices AKA Spintronics($22 million)
Fundamentals of Nanoscale and Emergent Effects and Engineered Devices($21.6 million)
Synthetic Biology ($20 million)
Machine Reading and Reasoning Technology($24 million)

http://nextbigfuture.com/2010/02/darpa-project-highlights-for-2010-2011.html

Well... That's 124.6 million, but still a cool variety of projects. I'm well aware that DARPA mostly just gives money to idea people and never really gets an end result, so it's not a true cost of each technology. I support blowing up the moon as well.

p.s. I'm European, yet proud/happy of the work NASA and DARPA does, so you guys can feel superior for a moment and be proud. Americans get a lot of shit for 'ethics' and 'war' but most people don't realise science is the most important thing, ever.

Also notice the one saying, "what if the bomb falls back to earth and XPLOODS!?!?"?
None of them get that it is a kinetic impact.

>>261825
The difference is that launching stuff even to lower orbits is expensive as fuck.

>>261824
i bet a third of those posts were eurofags or south americans. britain and brazil both have some of the stupidest internet-going populations.

>97 million.

It's even less. It's actually 79 million.

Why nobody understands, that it's a kinetic impactor, not a "bomb" in conventional sense at all?

>>261845
Because of the title.
Enough to burn the word BOMB in their brains forever.

nasa should have bombed the homes of the people commenting on that page...

>>261705
>waste of money

Yeah, we should spend it on niggers so they can have more nigglets and pointless wars with islamic countries.

>>261825
darpa does shit dirt cheap, nasa is a bit of a hog (" 'nasa spent hundreds of thousands of dollars developing a pen that could write in space' 'yea' 'and you know how russia solved the problem?' 'yea, they used a pencil.' " - Primer). but alos, like you said, these are the barest seeds darpa is laying for further projects that will take decades (or a bit sooner for a few of them, like the ai one) to come to fruition.

i think the moon bombing is actually a great example of ingenuity making something out of nothing. afaik the alternative would have been just letting the probe become some more space junk.

>>261854

>>261837
don't know about brazil, but the people of britain sure is unintelligent. but most of the posters seemed american, expecially as 50% complained about "the taxpayers' money" which the rest of us frankly don't give a fuck about

I lol'd, for so... so... sooo long, it's ridiculous!

>$79 million? Meanwhile, Social Security is going downhill and millions are living in poverty.

STOP SCIENCE!

... Poor people need money.

I dunno guys, NASA shouldn't nuke the moon. What if its atmosphere catches fire?

the real question thy should be asking, what does god think of this?

The comments on LHC related articles nearly made me weep. I think this is when I just stopped caring what morons think:

>Actually, destroying two protons is creating a small hole in the fabric of space. It's a fact of science. It could create a black hole.

>And accelerating two protons to collide into each other is exactly why this thing broke in the first place. Do you even know how much energy that releases?

>Idiots.

Yes, "Brian," you know more about the energies and dangers involved than the fucking particle physicists who built the most complex machine in the history of the known universe, you fucking imbecile.

http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/11/large_hadron_collider_ready_to.html

>Tell me what can possibly come positive from this madness colliding billions of protons at light speed what kind of twisted fuck came up with this utter nonsens how about bringing us a cure to cancer or hiv save millions of human lives from hunger and poverty allowing free energy the people who are making this experiment are only exhibiting one thing their own alter ego and their ignorance experiments like these invented the a-bomb making a thirld world war ever close.

>>261920
oh, morons

I propose another /sci/ project.

the positives prove that americans in general are retarded yes

Then there is stuff like this which makes me love humanity again:

>Hi my name is Bharath i am a diploma student i know nothing much about colliders, or photons but i very much love science. When i see these scientists taking limit of science to higher level i wish i want to be just like them so that i can discover more science mysteries. I really liked the work the scientists have done.

And I'm back to hating everyone:
>Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've created. Nostradamus has already given a warning for the people of Geneva.

>>261937
>>Hi my name is Bharath i am a diploma student i know nothing much about colliders, or photons but i very much love science. When i see these scientists taking limit of science to higher level i wish i want to be just like them so that i can discover more science mysteries. I really liked the work the scientists have done.

Eh, I'd like to believe that Americans are, in general, as retarded as we like to say, in order that I have hope for the human species, but I see the people in my home country in Australia and that destroys that lifeboat. I hear that Europeans are smarter than either... from Europeans. So "self-aggrandising cocks" seems a more fitting description than "smarter."

>>261961

Take it from me, a European, the vast majority of Europeans are retarded as well. In particular the British and Australian share a special kind of retardation. We just have to consign outselves to elitism; the majority of any population will be retarded for as long as being retarded is easy, subsidised and, not only socially acceptable but promoted within society.

>>261961
>So "self-aggrandising cocks" seems a more fitting description than "smarter."
I will not try to dispute this, I don't give a fuck if we're smarter or not, but I would NOT prefer other systems to this one. We don't go to jail for fucking a 14 year old, we can look at small breasted porn on the internet (I feel for you Ausfags man), we can play L4D2 with actual blood instead of balloons, we don't get people tracking our torrents, ISPs don't send us threatening letters, everyone has quality health insurance by default, etc. etc.

And I live in a shitty country that is yet, if ever, to become a part of the EU.

A reminder, Eurofags.

USA USA USA

...is just a European offshoot. We're responsible for all your achievements and get to point and laugh at your retarded parts.

It's because of their educational system that makes americans dumb

Oh...here we go again. Man gets bored and plays god in Space unlocking who knows what terrible things into our echo system. Could these mad scientist at NASA be mentally evaluated. We definately should have control on what is brought back on any mission and exposed to Earth. It's too careless to overlook...why not be safe. and why blow up the moon...Yeah...lunar landing worked great in the TIME MACHINE!!!

and wow...how about we spend the money on building an army for world domination next...then we wouldn't have to have a pissing contest in space with rockets and space chimps.

"3.What if they "bomb" the moon and it crashes into a million pieces and comes straight to Earth?"

made my day

Where are the Environmentalists on this one? Will the Moon People be harmed ? Did Al Gore approve this? What about the Whales and Snail Darters? Is there Lunar Warming? Do Moon People surf?
Enquiring Minds want to know...If the moon has water, can we send Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama there to finish their terms?

>if we all happen to die because of this idiotic test, im leading the mob to nasa

>>262038
so, you managed to kidnap a nazi scientist and he built you a moon rocket. you want a fucking medal for that?

Someone think of the moon rabbits.

>my thoughts exactly, have these idiots thought about what this will do to the moon? im not a nature freak (is the moon even considered nature?) but they are ruining something that shouldnt be touched. and if we all happen to die because of this idiotic test, im leading the mob to nasa

HAHAHA OMFG THIS IS HILARIOUS!
Look at your last link, at comment number 4503!

I have just discovered the reason for the construction of this machine; it will be used very similarly to the "Stargate" shown on TV. It's not a space portal but a dimensional one, and not to explore but to release beings imprisoned within a dimensional prison. There is a specific date when the machine will work; and the entities (about 200) will be released upon our World. They were here before 4000 BC; and lived as "gods" because of their spiritual power; good looks; and brilliance; but they caused much bloodshed on Earth! Their return will usher the New World Order and a time of tyranny such as the World will never see again (after the True King returns in about 7 years). Genesis 6 gives a brief discription. of thei

No, you guys don't get it! They are implying that they will rise from the dead as ZOMBIES! Duh! It's so simple! Everyone knows that the only way to get Washington to listen to anything, you have to come as zombies!

This thread proves to me beyond the sliver of a doubt why democracy can never truly work.

>how do you know this thing has no unused fuel left in it did you measure the right amount of fuel to get there? there is always gonna be fuel left and or fumes. also it is a wmd to put a hole on the moon and make a cloud go 6.2 mile up or 32,736 feet above the moon surface at the speed of 6,000mph. anything going at that speed will put a hole in the surface and would be the force of a bomb.and to think its made of aluminum?

Democracy used to work, in Greece and 100 years ago in the UK and USA when only land owners could vote. Now any fucktard can do it, like they are entitled.

echo system
referring to a movie as if it was real
thinking this will splid the moon in half

>>262145
land ownership is a fucking awful, non-democratic metric. basic literacy tests (like college english critical reasoning level) would be perfect.

>you people are idiots. Do any of you have absolutely any clue of the value imparted on our economy and our technology by reason of all that NASA does? Do any of you realize that this research goes to the very essense of the issue of mankinds longevity on this plant? Exactly how long do you think mankind has on this planet given population growth projections until all of our resources are either poisoned or used up? NASA's work, although unrecognizable to the small minded, is geared toward developing and discovering the science we all need to survive. So get over yourselves, read and learn a bit before you open your idiotic mouths.

Good on ya', Chuck, my boy. You're a swell kid.

>Are there terorist on the moon now?

>>262146
also in that movie iirc it was the result of some kind of crazy ftl science experiment they were doing there or some shit.

Tests would be gamed for political advantage rather then fairness. Good luck getting any politician to push for electoral reform when it doesn't result in them getting more votes.

HAHAHAHAH

Politics is all votes now. If sending rape victims to prison would get them votes, politicians would do it smiling self-righteously while teaching the public that to disagree is morally wrong.

...Not only did they spend tons of tax monies;
They're using it to see if there's water on the moon! If there is, what will we do? How will this help us? We've gone so long without knowing exactly how far away it is from us or why it glows at night or where it goes during the day; I'm pretty sure we could survive without knowing wether or not it has water on it.
What if there are aliens on the moon?
We'll all get blasted. -.-

Given the context of the majority of the posts, I can't really tell if this guy is trolling, or legitimate.
I am somewhat confused right now.

>Will the Moon People be harmed?
Only if they're terrorists.

>Ok folks, this is a real cover-up! Nasa the US and other world powers are trying to destroy an experimental moon colony that has been on the moon for many decades. The colony has been there secretly until a recent probe from a satellite launched by India detected unusual levels of Co2 emitting from the moon. These levels could only be caused my some form of life on the moon. How is that possible you might ask? The answer is we have had a secret space program with humans living on the moon for decades that's right!

>whats the point??? if they want to crash something into something play with legos video games dont mess with our moon what happens if something bad happens an they cant fix it or control then were f ucked big time

Seriously, how weak do they think the moon's structure is?!

>The $79M went to pay the salaries of scientists, engineers, technicians, mechanics, machinists and other workers to build LCROSS. Man people had JOBS and they earned a living, they spent the money the earned on things like food, clothing, shelter and entertainment for themselves and their families. They paid taxes on the money; the people who sold them things made a living and paid taxes. You know, its called Capitalism that educated people understand. Economics 101.

The reason NASA sucks is because its run by liberals.
If it was run by conservatives, it would have turned a profit with the technology it develops.

>>262550
It's just too bad that all conservatives are scientifically retarded. ;_;

>>262479


they might have a huge part of the population being retarted and stuff but they also spend lots of money to science and whatnot.

they also have some of the finest schools, universities and general reasearch institutes in the world where they can educate a small number of highly intelligent ( or rich) people.

they thereby attract intelligent people from across the globe.


a country paradox to its core.

>>262550

The world is literally overflowing with cruel ironies like these. Smart conservatives know how to make money (see: greedy businessmen) and don't actually give a shit about stuff like abortion, they just use it to manipulate the tools who do.

Smart liberals know how to make shit, but aren't ruthless enough with the shit they make. They let governments do that for them (see: atomic weapons). Smart liberals also worry a lot (over thinking things?), which is how they manipulate the sheep on their side, by spreading worry.

2 sides of the same coin. Smart conservatives and smart liberals should unite and let the dumb faggots die in a ditch. Unfortunately the dumb have far more voting currency.

>>262603
Basically all the smart people in the US just let the dumb fucks migrate to the south, but it backfired when they began to multiply down there so now there's more dumb fucks than smart people.

I just prefer to pretend the south doesn't exist.

I have seen many rage threads in my life, but i have NEVER, EVER, been as dissapointed and angry as i am now

I will never forgive humanity for letting these people live

I think America is still a superpower for the reason Britain is still (barely) globally relevant; history. There are a lot of treaties, alliances and those at the top support each other to stay at the top and abusing those below is not only practical but it helps you stay at the top.

American business use foreign resources and labour to sell to foreign markets and make money doing it. People like to think of America as an incompetent superpower on the way out but I think the government helps perpetuate that myth because it looks better than being a ruthless cock. America still does the best science, the fact that 70% of it is comprised of retards doesn't matter as long as the other 30% continue to be the best in the world.

We should just ban hippies and liberals from voting. Eventually the smarter liberals will learn how to use patents and run a buisness while the dumb ones will just die.

ITT: People who think Majora's Mask is real

>>262646
Majora's Mask is real, I played it.

If they want to find ice or water why not send a geologist? The answer is because no one has ever been to the moon. They want to send something to hit it to see if they can actually make some kind of contact with the moon. The government wants to spend 80 million on a piece of metal when they could just send a person.

Why are we messing with the universe. There is no telling what is going to happen! Did anyone see the TV mini seiries about a meteor hitting the moon and breaking a piece of it off, and throwing off the moon's rotation around the earth? Was not pretty. The moon was not circling aounf the earth perfectly, it started rotating around the earth in an oval shape and when it got closest to the earth, we lost gravity for minutes! Finally is was bound to collide with the earth! Think about it, 2012 states a rock is going to collide with the earth...well we just might be the ones doing it!!!!!

This shit stick is using mistaken information to justify being mistaken about something else he doesn't understand.

For fucks sake, the reason the Mayan calendar stops at 2012, is because they made it 5000 years long! PRE calculus! The spent decades compiling a calendar that was 5000 years long THREE DIFFERENT FUCKING WAYS! That shit was epic hard work for them. It stops at 2012 because I'm sure they figured by the time they were running up to the last months of 2011, they'd start working on the next 5000 years! This whole shit about the world ending is shit modern day shit faces thought up! There was never any prophesied end of days! It was just a BAD movie!

>>262806
You're right-ish. It ends 2012-ish. Like I said, the Mayans had a bunch of fucking different calendars, and they worked slightly different (one was fucking based on a woman's pregnancy). This one is special because they made them all work together.

>>262801
Bullshit degrees in applied faggotry perhaps, but definitely not in science/math.

>>262801
Exactly. Liberals shouldn't even go to college because they don't even use it in the first place. Most overeducation is done by liberals on the taxpayer dollar. Liberal college graduates never make full use of their degrees and start a buisness, they would rather gentryfy an existing neighborhood and work in a coffee shop instead.

>Where does a good education come into play with all of these nasa nitwits? I was always taught by my parents"go to school everyday, and then go to college, and get a good education, and you just might be able to get a good job and maybe even at nasa if you are really educated well" That was really a line of B.S.....

This Anon is trolling, but this is what conservatives actually believe.

There are stupid people everywhere.

If you judge an entire country's intelligence by a few idiots, you are an idiot yourself.

>6000mph might be too much. Could cause a chain reaction and split the moon into two. NOT KIDDING. Isn't that possible?

This is a degenerate breed of the armchair mathematician.

I'm sure that one was a troll.

>Mark: plain stupid

I think I like this guy, Mark. He's a real go-getter!

>>262889
Nope. The only reason colleges exist today is because conservatives run it as a profit run buisness. If liberals ran it, they would have shut their doors long ago.

The only reason conservatives take degrees is because their mother want them to have a good job and spanked when they did not do their homework.

>>262908
This is a funny sentiment because Conservatives hate sciences so much.

>As a NASA employee I am annoyed by the portrayal of this mission. This was a very fiscally conservative mission and the answers it will provide augment the literacy of humans. Are we really going to quibble about how much it costs tax payers? NASA puts only a small dent (second to least cheap government agency) in the national budget. Also, for the record, we are not going to bomb the moon. This is not an explosion, but an impact. It is a simulated impact, like a meteor. To those who are afraid of the moon going out of orbit and smashing into us, come on... do you think the American Space Agency is made of of incompetent people? The people running this, and all other, NASA projects are some of the most highly educated. People seem to think that NASA is a bunch of scientists tinkering. With a little bit of research you might see that WE have contributed SO MUCH to the medical industry, and so on and so forth.

>As a NASA employee

Wait... A NASA employee is on Yahoo?
And before anyone starts pointing back at me, I was sent a link to this thing by my idiot friend.

THIS IS THE PURPOSE OF THE INTERNET. WHY DOES THIS SURPRISE YOU?

Really though, can we stop with the political bullshit - it's ruining a good thread - and get back to laughing at stupid people?

>Why the heck would they do this?!? They'd have better made sure several times that this won't go wrong. Destroying the moon would totally mess up life on earth! No more eclipses; no light at night; the moon could even cause a major meteor shower on earth if it's blown to bits by the impact! Those idiots at NASA had better have thought of the consequences of this waste of federal money.

>>262949
> Implying that blowing up the moon is actually possible!

>What gives nasa the right to bomb the moon we don't own it.

This is the dumbest statement of all, and seems to get said by all the girls with blonde hair avatars.

Could you PLEASE stop your conservative/liberal bullshit?

Hell, you are more or less the same idiots, so just stop it.

Now, back to the retards on this page.

>Thats right, lets not only destroy our planet, lets piss off the entire solar system; this might give it a better reson to get rid of us all sooner. WTF?

I'm beginning to see a pattern develop here. Most of these fucking idiots believe that planets are actual thinking beings that can... like... do stuff to us. OR that other planets are hollow glass globes that can be shattered by something small moving at 6000kph. Can't... stop... laughing!

For fucks sake, have they ever heard the theory of how the moon was formed?

Do you know what this reminds me of?

Remember a few years back, the Shoemaker impact of Jupiter? I remember commenting to another dipshit "friend" (don't know why I have so many) that the massive fire balls of the impact were large enough to encompass the earth. He replied, "You mean the explosion is that big? It can reach the earth?"
I facepalmed so hard.

>>263143
Considering half of them can barely SPELL "moon", I doubt it somehow.

also
>considering the fact that the temperature gets down to or near over -300 degrees farenheit on the moon and they should know this, then this is the most insane thing that i have ever heard of!! of course theres gonna be ice! WTF!!

BECAUSE ICE FORMS WHEN THERE'S NO WATER AMIRITE

The moon is not owned by the United States so I wonder how we'd feel if another country were doing this to Usa?

This is another Proof that american do what ever they want with people mpney with out lettering you us know where is our money spending .

where are here suffer from hungry and the government enjoy it.

American is the bigger stupid country in the World.

waste of tax dollars. shame on the U.S. government.

I just finished reading a long stretch where apparently everyone is of the consensus that the moon has absolutely no gravity. This may explain why so many of them don't believe we landed there. Because how would the astronauts stay on the moon, when it has no gravity to hold them to it!

>jajaja man never walk in moon ja ja ja jajajajajajajajajajajaaj

Well, I'm convinced!

I also like it when a stupid person realizes they are stupid, and that certain things are better left to the professionals.

>Not only is this one of the Top Idiotic things this country has done since Vietnam but what the heck is going to happen when the moon is sent even a few inches off balance by this.. We do have a gravity field around earth..How long before the moon plunges into us?


liek if all da chinese people jumped at wunce!

Ummm.... ok.... we planned this. Yeah! The mission is to purposefully crash spacecraft into the moon to.... ummm... look for water... no ice! Yeah, ice! 'Cause if we find ice it means that the moon was once a lagoon... or something...and, uh..... finding ice could mean the moon could support life some day... or something. Yeah, that's what we'll tell them! Quick! Call a press conference and get me a fresh frappuccino and a jelly donut. Stupid civilians won't suspect a thing. Heh, heh, heh..."

Wh-what?!

>*Cough cough* This will sound dumb, but I read this book where a meteorite hit the moon, and the moon fell really close to earth, but got stuck by the gravitational pull, and everyone froze to death. I'm freaking out inside right now. ;^; Poor moon. It's my favorite thing since pizza!

I... he... but the moon's already in the gravitational... what.

>Anyone concerned with this affecting orbit, gravitational pull, structure or any other aspect of the moon has to be an idiot or a genius...Idiot because its not possible or genius if you figured out a way to get a spacecraft to travel faster than the speed of light to exert the energy needed for that kind of impact.

Stupid people who think they're smart are pretty funny.

We might be asking for a planetary war or retaliation.
You know, I would normally find something like this funny. But jesus christ, there's so many of people like this.

>The Christian Science Monitor? It's not that I doubt the $79M price tag, but when I think "credible source," The Christian Science Monitor isn't the first thing I think of. Surely they could have used a source that didn't have an oxymoron in its name.

>That said, it'd be really cool if they found ice in sufficient quantity to justify further exploration of lunar water. I want some bottled water that lists "Sea of Tranquility" as the source, and I want it now.

A true capitalist! He wants some damn moon water now!

>This is unbelievable!!!! My fiance' and I had a bad wreck 10/12/2008. We have both been in the work force for more than 30 years each. I was able to go back to work but we had to fight the government for months to get $1,100 a month in social security disability for my fiance' until he can go back to work in a year!! That's only $13,200 for a f***** year!!!!!!!!! And they want to blow up the moon to see if there's ice and water!!???!!!!! F*#K THE US GOVERNMENT AND ALL YOU F*@KING LOONEY a****** AT NASA!!!!!!! YOU SHOULD ALL BE PUT OUT OF YOUR MISERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>why dont we leave the moon alone, it doesnt matter if there is moon and/or ice on the moon, we've gone billions of years with the way it is. so who cares?....really....lets screw over America, and while we're at it...lets shoot something at the moon. I've met a few stupid ppl, but the government right now is so far in my mind.... RETARDED!, dont get me wrong, i love our nation. but what is that 79 million dollars for anyway? i cant even imagine 1,000,000 dollars at this point, but to think of what we could do with 79 million....wow, it would certainly help a lot of ppl, in our nations crises.

>RESIST.: NASA = intelligent scientists.
>You people = TOOLS.

>The moon has survived much worse than a relatively tiny spacecraft slamming into it at 6,000 mph.I mean, look at the craters for crying out loud. True, if something went wrong, we'd be totally screwed, as the moon greatly affects our gravitational pull. But surely they took that into account. The money they spend on that is pretty miniscule compared to what is being spent on this so-called "war on terror" (the REAL drain on tax dollars!) It would be a great BENEFIT to find out if there is any ice or water on the moon...do you have any idea what this means? We know more about our universe and its origins because of NASA. Quit your cryin.

I lol'd.

You know, for a while I was actually surprised at the surprisingly small number of conspiracy theorists.

>Come on people. Many people know about the "secret space station" that's been on the moon for 40 years. What i'm wondering is why NASA is blowing it up. Some type of cover up? Probably, since now India and China are working hard to see which of them gets to the moon first. There's something up therNASA doesn't want them to see.

And then I read that.

>>263677
No, I meant epin. Used similarly to, "wut", "interbutts", et cetera.

>>263389

you don't need an oil rig silly, you just need a large construction vechicle with a giant drill head about the size of the vechicle attached to it.

Or you could use the drill machine from X gen studio's Motherlode. Maybe if we drill down far enough into the moon, we'll find Satan and fight him with explosives.

All countries have dumb people. Imaginary lines in the ground don't say whether or not someone's smart. Look at their neighbors to the north and south. THen at who they broke off from when they were nothing but colonies. It explains it all.

>>We all know the moon’s energy directly affects the human psyche making it extremely dangerous to play with. I am much more concerned with displacing the subtler electromagnetic rays that reach our planet and humankind psyche. The same rays could be classified as lunar gravitation forces creating the daily tides in physical terms but also very much active on humankind.
