That Volcano Thing



It's been about five minutes since I've heard anyone talk about how this volcano in Iceland is fucking up airplanes or whatever, and you know what? it's been a pretty good five minutes. But just in case you forgot, here is this thing that happened. Like over a week ago. This thing that somehow made it impossible for planes flying tens of thousands of feet in the air all over the world to stop functioning because of, what? Dust in the sky? I think I may have been overestimating the state of modern aeronautics this whole time. I didn't realize planes were such pussies.

For real though, how bad can this shit be? It's not like the center of the earth literally exploded millions upon millions of gallons of liquid fire ash into the atmosphere. That only happens in the movies and in liberals' science books.



Hey, you want to know two funny things about Iceland? The way they spell things and Bjork. Consonants all over the place! Js where you might not expect them! Those two classics never get old. Kind of like me in a way. I just have good genes I guess.

if you ask me, them finger-shaped countries have had it too good for too long with their kick ass rock bands, wind machines, ice hotels, and hot birds. now volcanoes? we get it, you're way more exotic than us!

This volcano could have wiped out the human race, brother. I just read about it in the Guardian

just remembered that iceland is more crab-shaped than finger-shaped. still, my point stands!

I'm skeptical.

If the airlines lose money just by operating, you'd think they'd be saving money by not flying.

That had not occurred to us, dude.
