Reminds me of how, in 6th grade, my pals and I flipped off a jet at the Air and Water show. It zoomed in our direction, causing us to scramble for cover, yelling our heads off. Then it made a cloud formation that looked, initially, like a giant middle finger.
Of course, I've always been an imaginiative kid :wink:

But we're at just the right position, and at just the right time. Is it coincidence? Or is the universe telling us just how fucked up it thinks we are? We may never know...

Heh, that proves that I am one with the universe because that is exactly my position.

So the universe is...raising its index finger at us? I don't get it. :?

This Carina sub-cloud is particularly striking partly because its clear definition stimulates the human imagination (e.g. it could be perceived as a superhero flying through a cloud, arm up, with a saved person in tow below).
Uh-huh. Sure, guys. You can keep thinking that...

Now I know why I didn't keep up with astronomy too much. I love the pretty pictures, but the big words fuck me up. So does the explanation of Fe XII.

Er...if it was raising its middle finger at us, it would sort of have to be...I don't know...in the middle, maybe? Is their something wrong with your vision? :P

We're wasting time down here on this rock when we could be out there drinking all that alcohol.

EDIT: Time machine! Wooo!

Indeed, wouldn't you be pissed at us if you were the universe?

And that time travel shit hurts my brain. How did...? But he... And then you... What the..?! The things I miss when I socialize on the weekends!! :D
