You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™
The European Space Agency landing a dishwasher sized probe on a comet 300 million miles away.
ESA did it. It’s amazing. The space agency launched a tiny appliance into the great void and hit a small rock traveling thousands of miles away.
Amazing. Collosal. Truly an unbelievable astro-physic event.
Can you imagine?
That’s like throwing a dart from your living room and hitting a submarine in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
The science to land a water heater on a celestial spheroid hurtling through the vacuum of nothing is Star Trek cool.
It’s the stuff of science fiction.
Beam me up scotty.
The fact we can do something so unbelievable makes you wonder why we can’t do some simple things at home, here on Earth.
I’m not alone.
Seconds after the little probe landed, people took to Twitter and started tweeting:
WE CAN LAND ON A COMET BUT WE CANT…
So I included a couple of the funnier ones I found:
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant Find the keyhole when we’re drunk.
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant figure out who let the dogs out, or perhaps more importantly, why they let the dogs out.
#WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant figure out who shot Tupac & Biggie.
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant find that Malaysian airline plane or any of the 227 people that were on it?
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant pay women the same as men ?????
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant get social media to give us more than 140 characters
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant handle the truth!!
#wecanlandonacometbutwecant use they’re, their and there correctly.
#WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant order a McDonald’s breakfast after 10:30 AM.
#WeCanLandOnACometButWeCant get Canada to realize their bacon is really ham.
I came up with a few of my own:
WECANLANDONACOMETBUTWECANT: teach kids to cut steak with a knife.
WECANLANDACOMETBUTWECANT: figure out who goes first at a four way stop.
WECANLANDACOMETBUTWECANT: write in cursive anymore
WECANLANDACOMETBUTWECANT: have a Christmas Tree in school
WECANLANDACOMETBUTWECANT: set our dvr to record an entire show.
WECANLANDACOMETBUTWECANT: get that tire air pressure monitor to turn off
WECANLANDACOMETBUTWECANT: go 2 minutes without looking at our iphones.
Live long and prosper little comet probe.
