As a latrans-American, I find the lyric “keeps the varmints on the run” kinda offensive, and let’s not even get started on those damn cartoons. I don’t even own a pair of rocket skates and the closest I’ve come to being fooled by a tunnel painted on a rock face was that time I walked through a screen door.

@Leucrotta okay but I have some roller skates and some rocket engines are you sure you're not interested?

@zetasyanthis @Leucrotta they're cheap and reliable.

But a lot less impressive than DIYing my doom end to end..

@IrisKalmia @Leucrotta That doom bit is no joke. I had a coworker with a glass eye from when he was mixing his own fuel. (Still does it too, which is commendable persistence!)

@zetasyanthis @IrisKalmia (I should probably feel bad that despite my dad working for NASA for a bit and his whole space program thing, I’ve never been interested in model rockets at all.)

@zetasyanthis mmnhm. I regularly have days I'm amazed I have all my parts. @@;;
