Hellish Vision of Mars Unveiled

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the fire-in-the-sky dept.

mvladivostok writes "Yahoo has an interesting little article in which it is suggested that Mars may not have once been a warm, wet and hospitable planet that somehow lost its atmosphere; instead, it is suggested that the dead planet was occasionally bombarded by melting meteorites that carved out its distinctive craters and valleys. An interesting read."

    Well, if you're a man and you want to have sex with little boys, doesn't that make you a homosexual paedophile? I've never heard of lesbian paedophiles.

    If a straight guy fucks an underage girl, it was probably initiated by the girl who later on got mad at the guy and simply wants to get back at him. Goddamn teen queen prickteasers. First they lust after your cock and suck it like there's no tomorrow. Then, when it becomes apparent that you cannot have a real relationship with them, they start blackmailing you.

    Let's cram lots of /. cliches into one troll:

    He said " ... ripples ... " -- heh, heh!

    Imagine a Beowulf cluster of Natalie's nipples!

    What!? A mispalling? On slashdot? No, a misquote, you say! Run, Lassie, get the sherriff!

    All your Soviet Russia jokes are belong to lame ass yesterday.

    I vote for "assholes". Still, not as bad as the people who want to keep the moon pristine. Let's see, airless ball of rock and dust with no chance of any living thing... Let's maintain it in its pristine state!

    Of course, in order to do that, you would have to institute an asteroid point defense system...
