Excellent.

The alien ship reminds me of those teleconferencing thingos you'd find in the middle of boardroom conference tables back in the days when I would venture into such places.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

another option would be an "Iron Sky" outcome - perhaps for your next project

Our staff meetings are called Boomerang because of those thingys.  Right as our Medical School started up, someone said 'so how you use this boomerang thingy' and the name has stuck for any all staff meeting or announcements.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

A certain manufacturer's aftermarket motorbike swingarms used to be known as 'boomerangs'. It wasn't due to their sexy curved shape, it was because they kept coming back... :wacko:

Ah, right. Judging by the helmet shape, are they sold as 2001 astronauts?

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I prefer to think positively..............Houston, we seem to have an unexpected opportunity here..................but it made me smile, and is therefore a GOOD THING!
