Lake spotted on Titan?

    In other news, Titan went up in flames earlier this morning when a careless tourist ignored the "No Smoking" signs clearly posted in the vicinity of "Methane Lake". When will these off-worlders learn to pay attention?

    You're weak, dude. Let me show you how it's done:

    A few weeks ago, a lake mysteriously went missing in Russia. Back then, many people suspected that the lake had gotten fed up with the villagers throwing garbage into it, and just walked away. I guess we now know where it went :7
