Here's a man after my own heart on the subject of space.

[Burney]

Spoiler: it's shìt and not worth bothering with.

Are you not excited by the quest to to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before?

Seriously though. Consider if your ancestors had shared your (to put it mildly) disturbing parochialism. You would still be sitting in a muddy field somewhere in County Bumfúck, using your own shít to fertilise your potatoes and dying when the crop failed.

No, I'm very keen on exploring the earth as it involves places I might one day want to go to. Space, on the other hand, is an irrelevance.

Unless we get invaded, which would actually be quite interesting

Why? How do you know it's irrelevant? If you don't look, you'll never find what's there.

version of his wánking shed - something like a wánking hovel dug into the earth - no curtains of course.

It's called 'space' because there's fùck all there, mate. Clue's in the name. Duh!

There be dragons, maybe.

It's 'poteen' or 'poitín'. Unless you're suggesting I'm listening to Puccini, of course. In which case you also can't spell that.

Look, it's fair enough popping up there for a bit of a look, but once it became clear there's nothing of interest to us there, we should have fùcked the whole idea out the window and stopped pìssing away money on it. I mean the Moon - what a fùcking let-down that was!

[IUFG]

well, dragons or not, my limited 'research' shows that there may be aliens who keep other species as objects of sexual gratification.

I reckon we've got enough dog and goat fúckers here on Earth without spending gazillions of pounds on finding the same thing in galaxies far, far away.

In short, space can fúck off imo.

Well said, iufg. Although so far, we've discovered absolutely nothing in space that you could fùck at all. Yet another reason it's a waste of time. Millions of miles of emptiness and not a chance of getting your end away. :-(

You only know that cos you just looked it up ya West Brit tosser.

And every month they ask for another 100 million in funding because they've found something somewhere that might mean there was once some water somewhere which might mean there was some kind of atmosphere which might mean there could have been at least microscopic life forms blah blah fúckin blah. Spend it on the NHS!

The International Space Station particularly fùcks me off. They're all up there growing cress, shìtting in bags and similar fùcklery and nobody has ever once thought of doing something interesting like shooting some zero-gravity porn. Timewasters.

To be honest Herbs the NHS is a far bigger waste of tax payers money than space exploration.
