As if the U.S. could ever intervene Mexico.

They tried back in 2012 when the ATF smuggled thousands of military grade weapons and equipment to secretly sponsor narcos in Mexico, just to later "offer their help" to eradicate them, by stationing the US Army in Mexico. That offer failed miserably. Do you seriously think they’re going to move a finger for these nobodies?

Pastafarian: How far can you throw pasta? Wet or dry? Blessed or cursed first?

They said don’t eat any saturated fats, they said eat this laboratory spread that funds their research. We know now Margarine will kill you. I can see why people ignore government guidelines now.

I guess they don't want U.S. military intervention. Let free dumb ring?

Scientist does normal research in a well-controlled environment.

Masses freak out because the word "Virus" is in headline.

Didn't Musk send a Tesla toward Mars? It's an electric teakettle, right? If it orbits, it meets your criteria.

Meanwhile, anything is 'possible' if we tweak the variables. Can I hand-slingshot a pebble into Terrestrial orbit if wind conditions are right and gravity twerks? Sure. 8-)

Just what I meant to add here -- you beat me to it!

I'm reminded of a truism: "If an elderly, well-respected scientist says something is possible, they are likely correct. If they say something is not possible, they are likely wrong."

But 'likely' doesn't mean 'positively' or 'absolutely'. Old wankers are right sometimes.

Wait, what? Did you post to the right place?

Just a quick one, got a few more to go before the End of the World

To any Martian or Neptunian resident, we grubby Terrestrials are an alien species. Earthlings have sent objects to inspect and infest their planets without receiving permission. Why trust us?

Prudent non-humans on other Solar-orbiting bodies ('planets' etc) would mask themselves from outside surveillance. Who knows what horrors lurk in space? We naive Terrestrials have yet to reach a sufficient level of paranoia.

Do unknown (to Earthlings) worlds in Solar orbits exist? Are they insignificant, or masked? Could any known planet(oid)s harbor technological societies hostile to Earthlings? Are the Ionians out to get us?

Excuse me for skepticism. Continued human existence supports my view. YMMV.

Fucking interns.....

It's possible this guy knows because he is from that mothership and it's his teapot.

Lots of things are possible.

it's possible in the same way it's "possible" that there is a tea kettle full of hot tea orbiting mars.

sure it's "possible"... but you're claiming it's "possible" means literally nothing without evidence.

that said: the oumoumou object was "something" and it definitely didn't behave like an object on a simple trajectory should have.

This is also how I stay awake at work.

“Oh was that not allowed? Sorry, our bad.”

Canada is literally just America-lite but with universal health coverage (a big deal to be sure, but nonetheless). They just have much better PR.

I'm sure a lot of Canadians will get butthurt at this remark, but the truth hurts.

Well then, that makes everyone better.

Apologizes accepted. What nice young men.

"Alright Sweethearts, You Heard The Man And You Know The Drill! A**holes And Elbows!"

We can't even be certain that we've found all the planets in our solar system. For all we know there may have been aliens hanging out in our solar system for the last 100 years.

Well most anything is "possible", it's just that probabilities are pretty damn low

Pretty much. Either way I think there's more to than a tummy tuck.

I've actually heard it might have not even a tummy tuck and drug deal gone bad. Even the doctor is saying there was no appointment. There also other stuff but that one sticks out the most.

Bold of you to assume that he ever sobers up.
