    I'm kinda hoping some of it hits my house. I need a new roof.

    I was thinking I could use a new car.....

    The last time something like this happened, they actually launched a missile into space to destroy it (or at least break it into small enough pieces that would burn on re-entry). http://www.raytheon.com/newsroom/technology/rtn08_nl/highlight4/index.html

    Since I know they could do it again if needed, and they aren't, I'm not worried.

    that's pretty awesome. i've been watching this all day on cnn, i'm not actually freaking out, but i figured some folks didn't know this was even going on, and stuff like this has always interested me.

    I would run and hide if I were you, but I'm not, so I won't.

    thanks for the insight. enlightening. truly.

    I felt equally enlightened by your original post, bless your heart. :flowerforyou:

    lmao. i'm sure. thanks for the insincerity. and for taking this entire thing to heart, like i knew most of you would. i found the responses to this interesting.

    Right, well I'm off to hide under my desk and cry about being accused of being insincere. You are very welcome by the way!

    If you read the article, there is an approximately 1 in 3,200 chance of any one human being getting hit.

    lmao. where. where in my original post did i say i PERSONALLY was worried bout me, one human, getting hit by this thing. read the original post. a lot of you guys are taking this post entirely too seriously.

    Actually, you did say you were freaking out about this.
    http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/nasa-satellite-expected-to-hit-earth-this-week/2011/09/18/gIQARnpVdK_story.html

    because i am. there's so many complications that could come with a satellie entering and hitting the earth. what if it hits a heavily populated city? what if it hits an ocean and causes a tsunami? am i overthinking it? this thing is 12,500 bloody tons!

    "soooo um...is ANYBODY else freaking out about this?! *insert link* because i am.



    Usually using "I" means you're talking about yourself.

    Actually, you're correct. Sarcasm does not translate well via text at all. It's extremely difficult to get it across without the deadpan delivery.
