    When I'm in a place of high security, I focus so hard on not looking sketchy that I end up looking sketchy.

    I guess that depends on where you define space begins. I think different people/agencies/sciences have different distances. Anywhere from 40km to 160km+.

    So with apparently 40% of the earth population being within 100km of the ocean. If you define space as beginning at say 140KM, more people might be nearer the ocean than space.

    Not me. I had no friends so I made some out of sticks and mud.

    They always lost the game

    If the world gets worse by the time I'm old, I'll complain about how much better everything used to be. If it gets better by then, I'll complain about how easy kids have it these days.

    Cheetos cover your fingers in orange cheese dust specifically so that you can't use that hand for anything more than eating more Cheetos.
