"Mastodieren" ist definitiv besser als "Xen"..

Handy birthday to Curiosity.

The fun thing about deep internet humour is that a meme/joke either requires a (or several independent) obscure and incredibly specific set of knowledge to be funny or it's just pure nonsense that is funny because of its absurdity.

"If it's going fast enough, a feather can absolutely knock you over."

It boggles my mind in such an event, if you are within a few AU, the neutrinos alone will kill before anything else has a chance to do you harm. :)
