What Neil deGrasse Tyson do if aliens asked him to take them to his leader
January 14th, 2022 under Neil deGrasse Tyson. [ Comments: none ]

If aliens came to our planet, they would probably go see Neil deGrasse Tyson because he is a planetary scientist. That is unless they came from Pluto.

Anyways, if they asked him to take them to his leader, which leader would he take them to? He would bring them to Comic-Con so that they could see people that look like them. Then he pondered if people on their planet dress up as humans at their comic conventions?

And now I am imagining what aliens look like if they dressed up as us. Who would they pick as the person they would want to look like? Probably, Kim Kardashian because they have wide middles like her. That, and she looks like one of them.

Neil deGrasse Tyson’s take on Just Look Up is so scary
December 30th, 2021 under Neil deGrasse Tyson. [ Comments: none ]

Neil deGrasse Tyson is one of the most respected scientists in the World. Naturally, I was curious what he thought about the apocalyptic movie Just Look Up.

In short, it is about two scientists who discover a massive comet is hurling toward the earth, and it is a planet killer. They try to alert people to it, but no one believes them, including the President of the United States and the media. Will anyone believe them before it is too late?

Back to deGrasse Tyson, what did he think of it? “Finally saw the Netflix film ‘Don’t Look Up,’ a fictional tale of a Nation distracted by pop-culture and divided on whether to heed dire warnings of scientists,” he wrote. “Everything I know about news-cycles, talk shows, social media, & politics tells me the film was instead a Documentary.”

Wait, does this mean he tried to warn us about something, and we didn’t believe him? Is that what he is saying here? I already suffered from insomnia, and now I will never sleep. So if my JHS alum tells us there is a planet killer coming our way, listen to him and not the fake news. He knows what he is talking about, and they don’t

Neil deGrasse Tyson found a way to ruin Christmas

Neil deGrasse Tyson declared that Pluto is not a planet and that indigo is not a color. Now, the acclaimed scientist is going after Christmas.

“Santa doesn’t know Zoology,” Tyson wrote. “Both male & female Reindeer grow antlers. But all male Reindeer lose their antlers in the late fall, well-before Christmas. So Santa’s reindeer, which all sport antlers, are therefore all female, which means Rudolf has been misgendered.”

Is nothing sacred to him?

Sometimes, I am more embarrassed to say I went to the same junior high school as him than saying I went to the same high schools as Jared Kushner and the dad from Seventh Heaven. Nah, I would not go that far.

It’s 10:10, do you know why watches are set to that time in ads?
November 23rd, 2020 under Neil deGrasse Tyson. [ Comments: none ]


I never noticed this before, but old-fashioned watches have their hands set to 10:10 in print advertisements. I am not the only one who didn’t know this until now; acclaimed scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson just realized it too.

“If Space Aliens studied Earth culture, they might wonder why the Time in printed ads is usually Ten Minutes After Ten,” Tyson wrote. “Could all these watches, and the people who wear them, be frozen in some Phantom Zone and need to be set free?”

Why are watches set at that time? According to FactMyth, “Watches and clocks are typically, but not always, set to 10:10 (or close) in advertisements. This is mostly for aesthetic reasons and simplicity. In simple terms, it gives room for graphical elements like the logo, and importantly it looks like a nice happy symmetric smiley face.”

I studied advertising in college, and none of my teachers ever told me this. All they ever said to me was shut up and pay attention. Maybe they did tell me, and I just wasn’t listening or paying attention.

Neil deGrasse Tyson’s dance moves are out of this World
November 18th, 2020 under Neil deGrasse Tyson. [ Comments: none ]


In order to be cool in the TikTok universe, you need to know how to dance so you can make a trending video. Neil deGrasse Tyson wants to be hip, so he shared a video of himself owning the dance floor. Now that the astrophysicist has, he wants to know, “So, can I get back to the universe now?”

I say just like he accepted Pluto back into our universe; they should accept him back into theirs.

BTW I went to the same Junior High School as him and Alfonso Ribeiro, and I know think Tyson is the best dancer from 141. Sorry, Carlton!

So much so, I think his people need to pitch him for Dancing with the Stars. I think he could win it all. That would mean that two alumni from JHS brought home the mirrorball trophy. That would be as awesome as the Cosmos.
