    That the time between loan payments can effect how much interest you are charged. They said interest is charged not only on the loan amount balance, but also days between your payments. They made it sounds like it was a little higher yet it was almost double the usual interest charge. :s

    I've heard it, it's sad and eerie

    ETA: it encompasses our loneliness in the universe very well

    So it's just NASA being emo?

    Wow... That's a rather eye opening way to look at it!

    I've heard that it contains some Beatles and parts of I love Lucy, if I'm thinking of the same thing...

    Is that really what media, music and television says about us as a species... That we are rather lonely

    I guess the simple fact that we would send out such an object, really says it all and shows how isolated we really are...

    I mean, there's not even another species on our own planet on our level of comprehension

    Yep, it's our version of "Hello? Is anyone there?"

    Nope, NASA is just really emo.

    Emo NASA Is Taking Its Feelings Out on the Moon
    Clearly there's an emo intern at NASA, just look at this Eclipse playlist
    Emo NASA - YouTube
    NASA Day 5 – Dave Gets Emo

    It makes sense, they work in the dead cold darkness of space and have to think about the futility of human existence in an infinite universe.

    TIL if you're still hungry after lunch, it's probably better just to have seconds than to have 1 cookie, then another, then another, until you have eaten 650 calories in cookies. :/
