I am staring in disbelief. We used to explore space. Now we finance glorified firework and make chicken toothpaste.

Space is nothing but dead rock, hot potato, fart planets, long live chicken breath!

Tbf we still explore space

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social -1 points 2 months ago

I mean, scientists still study space. We still send out probes and build telescopes. But do we really explore?

And I don't mean manned missions - I mean at one point the world explored space as a proxy for war. Afterwards, we even came together to continue to a lesser extent... Now Musk is rushing the decommissioning of that aging monument early

What happens when the ISS comes down?

The world used to watch missions as a celebration of our species, but now we just get click bait articles about what other people found... What's left of we don't even have people leaving the atmosphere?

But how does it taste when you take a big swing of orange juice after?

[–] whodatdair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 months ago

Orange chicken & rice

[–] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 8 points 2 months ago

Probably the same as regular toothpaste.

[–] Faydaikin@beehaw.org 7 points 2 months ago

Depends if our old friend 'sodium lauryl sulfate' is in the mix.

Have they just rebranded cat/dog meat flavoured toothpaste and trebled the price of it?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 2 months ago

We got chicken flavored toothpaste before the KFConsole. SMH

Why, oh why?

I can see this being useful for encouraging kids and folk not used to brushing, to brush more

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sure. Nothing makes me want to brush my teeth more than smearing chicken-flavored caulk from a tube onto my teeth.

Imagine yourself as a 4 year old who loves chicken but hates sticking toothpaste in their mouth

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Wouldn't a 4 year old eat the paste? This is a terrible idea.

[–] Madbrad200@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 month ago

Hey man if that gets the paste around their teeth I'm all for it
