I see your seagull, and raise you a rocket booster falling to Earth. Turn up your volume, and when the screen goes black, keep watching.

I was under the impression that in space, no one can hear you scream.

No, in space no one can hear you squawk.

Did they ever find (and destroy!) the three alien jellyfish or are they right now devastating our oceans?

I was expecting a seagull to land on the booster at the end.

The end freaks me out the most for some reason. Maybe it's the sense of distance and then falling backwards into the ocean.

I was under the impression that warp drive was just a pipe dream, but there it is, plain as day: rocket engines bending space to the point that the planet turns inside-out.

Huh.

Well, as long as you're directly attached to something vibrating, there's a path through which to record the sounds it makes.

The sound was kinda great, too. I could listen to that kind of pseudo-ambient noise all day. And I'm not even high.
