What a hipster.


Srsly, though, space is awesome. I can spend hours at a time staring at the sky. I'd be an astronaut, but all they get cooler views of is earth, and earth fucking sucks.

I freaking love astronomy. I always wanted to be an astronomer. But, math hates me and I hate it.

This just got me thinking of how funny it would be if God truly existed and was all like:
