    I don’t trust the liberal science agenda so I did my own research. Using some back-of-the-napkin math and my telescope, I’m now blind from looking at the sun through a telescope. This is being transcribed by my trad wife. My results:

    2 > 1

    This one checks out, folks.

      You must be a terrorist because that’s MUSLIM MATH! Those are not Christian numbers and feel it necessary to report this comment to the FBI, the Federal Biblical Investigators.

      What, you don’t believe in the Nemesis hypothesis?

      Because that would bring it up to… hang on, let me get my calculator…

      Two stars in the solar system.

        Fascinating proposal, professor. Thankfully I can adjust my equations quite easily:

        2 ≥ 2

    As someone who worked in a gas station for 24 years…

    sigh

    I’d do it. I’d suck it up. I’d make some damn good friends along the way and then I’d never maintain those friendships and feel guilty for the rest of rest of my life. “Just call him, dipshit. He’s going through a divorce! Just go fishing! Pleaaassse! Ok, here goes. Tomorrow.”

    Always tomorrow.

            Turkeys can fly. Unless this is a reference to something, then carry on.

              WKRP Cincinnati, first annual turkey drop. A piece of legendary comedy history. Low key a jab at a failed real life attempt to release 2 million balloons in Cincinnati that resulted in two deaths.

    I love this because even though I read the words, I interpreted it to mean something else for a second. (atoms and galaxy) Be careful when you read things and don’t assume you know something.

    Is the joke that there is only one star in our solar system? The sun?

      yes, … and only 2 hydrogen atoms in a molecule of water (H2O)

        I was sure of the 2 H atoms but wasn’t sure if the sun was the only star. Thanks for the clarification.

        It really is a wonderful show. I watched it again recently because it’s that time of year, so this was on my mind. 😁

          I had never seen it before, but I watched it all in one evening while my wife and daughter were out and then I watched it all again with them the next day because I knew they had to see it too, and it was just as good a day later.

            That’s so nice to hear. Hopefully it becomes a yearly tradition to watch it.

            We introduced it to our daughter this year. She was a little scared but enjoyed it nonetheless. I caught myself wishing there were more shows like it, but it’s so unique and that’s probably why I love it so much.

      That there are more hydrogen atoms in a single molecule of water than there are s’s in your entire comment.
