hello?
test
my chat cut out momentarily
omg i need to know if you are still there
like Jimmy Carter sending that thing into space…what was it, the Golden Record?
yeah
The Voyager Golden Record
is there anyone out there?
will anyone ever hear this?
omg
i don’t even know what the symbols on the thing we sent to aliens mean
if an alien asked wtf the symbols on the golden record meant…i wouldn’t be able to tell them.
that’s not good planning on our part
they could come here looking for the civilization that sent them that record
and ask about it
and no one would know what it meant
and they would be like…this isn’t from you guys then
and colonize our asses
i don’t want to live on a reservation
i might not get good internet service
i almost took the adderall today
at like 7:30
in the PM
at night
i almost took it at night
but then i thought…while i’d get my assignment done, i’d probably get it published in some magazine
then i’d have to tell my boss we didn’t have the rights to it anymore
and i’m not sure that would go over well
because the training department kind of needs those documents
so i went with the xanax instead
even though it doesn’t make me productive at all
it just makes me want to paint the golden record
and then get emo about how i won’t do it and more than sure that if i did, it would look like shit
and that’s not fair to Jimmy Carter
Did you paint that? That looks awesome.
Here’s what I would tell the aliens:
We spin around the sun like this, but we always wished our planet was more dong shaped. If you could help us out with that, it’d really help us out.
Here’s exactly how our hearts work. We die if they stop working, so please don’t do anything to them.
Oh you like my necklace? Here’s how you make your own.
The left side of the square is how you color INSIDE the lines. The right side of the square is how you color OUTSIDE the lines. I cannot stress how important this is to our culture.
[Mumble something about geometry.]
If you listen to our music, turn it all the way up. Or don’t even bother.
I’m sure you’ve heard of Jesus, but let me tell you a story about how the star of Bethlehem came to OUR planet on the night he was born.
Boobs. Hee.
Hahaha, that’s great. I painted the second Golden Record, not the first. JUST in case you weren’t sure which one was mine.
