...fake and gay

Hey now. Let's not blame gay people for the common-sense-defying demon-wizard sorcery that engineers get up to when someone threatens to take away their calculators and caffeine.

I remember a quote from an A380 pilot saying the plane doesn't look like it should be able to fly.

Even the people that fly them know they don't look like a flying object.

I get it. That plane is so disgusting the earth tries to keep it as far as possible from the ground.

[–] thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, thats the helicopter. It's said that it does not fly, but is repulsed by the earth because it is the hubris of man manifest.

Planes fly because aerodynamics.

Helicopters fly because money.

[–] thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Helicopters leave the ground because God has gazed upon them, and became angered when He saw them among His beasts, on the lands of His creation. God then decided to expel the helicopters from His earthly kingdom to flutter helplessly in His skies. God did this to punish Man, whose hubris led him to climb into the unholy creation. The Lord would then strike down the abomination fluttering in His skies, condemning the heretics that had climbed aboard in the belief that they could fool Him.

Thus the name "Jesus nut".

No, it's called the Jesus nut because if it fails, only Jesus can save you now.

Wait till this guy find out that there are more planes in the ocean than there are submarines in the sky

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well, technically pregnant women can be submarines

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've read your comment and I'd like you to know that I don't approve of it.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 6 points 1 day ago

Well, I could've said male seahorses if that makes you feel better? Are they still submarines if you put them in an aquarium on a plane, but the plane crashes into the ocean?

Don't forget about the screens they put in the windows

[–] match@pawb.social 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

at takeoff i like to imagine that the plane is going into a massive underground subway network with really nice screens along the sides

[–] Dojan@pawb.social 7 points 2 days ago

I would be worried if the aeroplane goes down rather than up during takeoff.

The dude writes 'atleast' like it's a word. I've seen all I need to see.
