incidentally, this is still the single most hilarious anecdote re: apollo astronauts i have come across

Apollo 13 was halfway to the moon before Swigert realized he had not filed his income taxes and that he would be quite unable to do so before the April 15 deadline. The subject came up as scientist-astronaut Joe Kerwin was reading the Sunday morning news: “Today’s favorite pastime across the nation—Uh oh, have you guys completed your income tax?”

Swigert radioed, “How do I apply for an extension?” Mission control exploded with laughter. “It ain’t too funny, things happened real fast down there and I do need an extension. I’m really serious…”

“You’re breaking up the room down here,” Kerwin said. A few minutes later he assured Swigert that there wouldn’t be any problem: an automatic extension is granted to anyone who is out of the country at tax time.

homestuck, for all its insanity, still has the best quotes, my favorite being “the circle of stupidity is complete”

mine might be that one karkat rant like ‘your vehicle is parked squarely in the ‘nobody gives a fuck’ zone’

“Yes sir we are literally under siege by planet fucking Jupiter.”

“shit. let’s be santa”

“Strider fuck off, and by fuck off I mean fuck off right back over here you insufferable prick.”

“i’m 13 u egg”

“Well shit. That’s a hell of a mystery. No one thought was a mystery. And didn’t even really need solving. But damn if it didn’t just get solved. So nice work.”

“Oh, ha ha! If smug was a motorcycle, it just jumped over a fucking canyon. The crowd goes wild with dismay, and then commits mass suicide.”

“Dave are you talking through the little foam ass again?”
“Sorry I can’t hear you through the little foam ass.”

“the thing about penis ouija is you can never be sure who drew the dicks

was it you or me or maybe a ghooooooost?”

Man, being blind is dumb, can I like grope you or something to get up to date on your appearance, would that be weird?

“PUT THOSE EYEBROWS BACK DOWN BEFORE MY HOT ACID RAGE BREATH BURNS THEM OFF”

“Shucks!!!!!”
“Hey, I’m upset about it too, but let’s watch the fucking language.”

“dude you arent listening. although a gay butterfly effect is a pretty funny idea lets not dismiss that as a concept altogether”
