  1. Load up on guns
    Bring your friends
    Its fun to lose
    And to pretend
    Shes overboard
    Myself assured
    I know I know
    A dirty word

    I feel stupid and contagious
    Here we are now
    Entertain us
    A mulatto
    An albino
    A mosquito
    My libido

    Im worse at what I do best
    And for this gift I feel blessed
    Our little group has always been
    And always will until the end

    And I forget
    Just what it takes
    And yet I guess it makes me smile
    I found it hard
    Its hard to find
    Oh well, whatever, nevermind

  2. Anyway, are we to assume that rocket scientists are really this stupid? To think that space actually smells like something, and that there’s not any other reasonable explanation for these smells? Like say, the one raised in the comments of the article:

    “Isn’t the smell just the smell of the space suit after being bombarded with raw sunlight and gamma radiation? Not surprised it smells cooked in every way. So this isn’t about the smell of space, but the smell of exposure to it.”

  3. Actually, space doesn’t smell.

    The particle density is too low and your nose would bleed while smelling it, before your eyeballs and head exploded.

    Now, the vapor trail from the space shuttle – that might smell, if you sniffed the accretion to the outer surface of the suit which acted as an attractant. But then, sticking your head under the rocket nozzles on the Saturn rocket would do the same thing (well, except for the fact your head would burn up).

    What the heck are rocket scientists doing up in space – I thought we had astronauts and space scientists to do that?
