        launches into tirade about all the specific details about painting that astronauts wouldn’t know off the top of their heads

        “Literally tell me what a Hohmann transfer is. I’ll give you a full day, you can research, meditate, whatever you want. If after that you can describe it to me accurately then I’ll concede that maybe we can train you to be an astronaut, you salt of the earth motherfucker.”
