We should move to space
Like ASAP.
Earth is cool and all, what with its dirt and plants and life and whatnot, but I think it’s time for us to grow up. We’ve been here for a couple million years, it’s probably time we moved out and got our own place. I mean, isn’t it a little embarassing to still be living at home at this age? We need to stop depending on mother nature and leeching her hard-earned resources. She’s old now, let her relax in her retirement and enjoy some peace and quiet. It’s bad enough already that we still make her clean up after us all the time.
Now, I know this means we would actually have to get our shit together and stop fighting amonst ourselves, but I think we could do it. We could always start again once we are off the planet and in our giant inter-galactic spaceship. We could even have space wars then. Imagine how cool and gritty that would be! Think lasers! Pew pew!
And you know, even if we don’t want to go that far right away, we could at least visit our uncle on mars for a while. I know he’s terrible at decorating, and the atmosphere is a little thin at best, but I’m sure we could manage. We’ve been saying that we’re going to visit him for a while too, so we should probably follow through.
It’s not just that it’s a little bit sad we haven’t left the nest yet, either. There’s also the fact that it’s dangerous to stay here, what with all these rocks that are flying around in space, just waiting to smash into us. That’s how the dinosaurs died, you know. Are you saying you’re as dumb as a dinosaur? Then get your ass on the moon. Pronto.
… Well, actually the moon probably isn’t much better. But it would be nice to be in something more mobile than a 5.9742 × 1024 kilograms floating sphere (it’s not technically a sphere, but close enough).
We need to build a giant space station, like a death star, but without the big gun.
Make it happen people.
