People who don’t want to read The Martian in case the science is too complicated should be informed that it contains the lines “The best way to store the ingredients of water is to make them be water”, “It is of course dangerous to set off an explosive device on a spacecraft”, and “If I cut a hole in the wall of the hab, the air won’t stay inside any more”.

I love this fucking book

“I’ve said the words kilowatt-hours-per-sol so many times they’ve lost all meaning so I’m going to call them pirate-ninjas.

“So I need to generate nine hundred pirate-ninjas…”

there’s an entire chapter dedicated to him wondering how the cubs are doing while he’s stuck on mars, dying

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

I like the part where the guys on Earth are like “He thinks we all gave up on him, and that he’s completely alone. I wonder what he’s thinking about right now.” And he’s like “How come Aquaman can control whales?”

“ As with most of life’s problems, this one can be solved by a box of pure radiation. “

“Actually, I was the very lowest ranked member of the crew. I would only be “in command” if I were the only remaining person.”

Two pages later… “What do you know? I’m in command”

“Me: “This is obviously a clog. How about I take it apart and check the internal tubing?” NASA: (after five hours of deliberation) “No. You’ll fuck it up and die.” So I took it apart.

And my personal favorite :” Also, I have duct tape. Ordinary duct tape, like you buy at a hardware store. Turns out even NASA can’t improve on duct tape. Yes, of course duct tape works in a near-vacuum. Duct tape works anywhere. Duct tape is magic and should be worshiped.”

the fact none of these posts have even MENTIONED potatoes is a crime

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

That’s a good point, about 50% of this book is about potato farming.

The biggest break-up in Star Wars was between R2-D2 and Anakin. Like full on we are never, ever, ever getting back together level break-up.

Look at this beautiful family portrait. Look how Artoo has taken all of Anakin’s kids with him in the divorce. I love this.

[moosefeels]

artoo is the friend who sees his best friend botch the breakup so badly that he actually sides with the ex in the breakup and becomes ‘uncle artoo’ to the children anakin is legally no longer allowed to contact 

[halberdierminister]

I cannot believe that R2-D2 is the only being in this picture that wasnt directly created by Anakin Skywalker

I was looking for reference for bracket fungi, and I ran into this:

And second I saw that, I was like “wait, that looks familiar…”.

Then it hit me.

you CANNOT hold me accountable for accidentally making a homestuck reference when i've never read homestuck. if you recognized it that's YOUR problem it's YOUR sin.

[corsairesix]

People love to be like “oh hee hoo hoo I caught you making a homestuck reference” as if it isn’t like a billion pages long and presumably mentioned everything in existence at least once

with adobe flash going the way of the dinosaur it really solidifies that the old net is dead, and our children will grow up in a world in which the web is a highly commercialized hell hole instead of a lawless zone free of civilization.

So this is how the cowboys felt huh

A moment of silence for all the poorly animated flash videos and games on newgrounds that shaped our childhoods

Gandalf, taking a hit from his joint: Did you guys know that mithril is super expensive? Like insanely valuable? That it’s very much a finite resource mostly plundered from the earth and invaluable due to its many uses? And also Sauron has most of it so it’s now lost to its Elven and Dwarvish makers? And to think Bilbo’s precious gift of mithril mail is probably sitting in the local Useless Dumb Artefacts Museum. Just makes you think lol …

Gimli, a dwarf who has lost most of his people’s cultural artefacts: … I’m sorry Bilbo was given what and did what with it

Frodo, secretly wearing Bilbo’s mithril mail at that very moment but only after nearly 70 years of it sitting in the Useless Dumb Artefacts Museum gathering dust because Bilbo had no idea his cool shirt was worth approximately the net value of their entire country:
