Marry me astronaut

The intellectual.

'Me? Dislocated thumb from switching channels to catch all the Olympic events. . .'

'After researching our dream vacation online with reviews, commentaries, we cams and pictures, we felt we'd been there and didn't need the trip!'

A knight sent to kill a dragon armed with a fly swatter

Technological Dependence.

Travelogue

"Stargazing sure is less painful at night."

"They remove people who have become 'jammed in armchairs' due to COVID 19 lockdown!"

'Are we watching business news or sports news?'

"Yeah, and the new job lets me work from home."

'Neighbors...friends...artists models.'

"Damn, I forgot to pack a jumper."

"I've passed your complaints along to the captain."

'Are you guys still watching the tapestry? Why don't you go outside it's such a nice day!'

'Pizza and beer? Probably not the best prep for the g-force simulator.'

"They discovered an Earthlike planet, and it's close." "Earthlike?" "Does it have oceans and beaches and sensual ladies who like to gaze at sunsets?" "It may have liquid water. And it's orbiting a red dwarf, so it'll always look like sunset." "But is there anyone there to whisper sweet nothings to?" "I know a guy at NASA. If they send a probe, maybe he could add your dating profile."

They just found two more dark moons around Uranus. Are you winding up to some sort of sophomoric joke? No, they really do think they found two new moons there. Kind of suspicious, if you ask me. As long as I can remember, Uranus had 27 moons, and the Solar System had 9 planets, including Pluto. Now those numbers change all the time. Next thing you know, they'll be telling us we have to Uranuses. Yeah ... pretty sure you're winding up to some sort of sophomoric joke.
