And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

you'd probably set at least a little clearing if you took a breath right before exposure and closed your mouth.

Don't hold your breath in a vacuum! Explosive decompression stops being fun when it happens to your lungs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh my....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What To Do When You Get Spaced:

1) Don't hold your breath.

2) Don't breathe.

3) Don't move, lest you send yourself spinning off wildly into the Black.

4) Wait for rescue.

5) Enjoy the view! It'll all be over in about 30 seconds, one way or another.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That looks like TWO Hello Kitty houses in Shanghai.

G-Cookie and I should move there and be neighbors.

What To Do When You Get Spaced:

Let's suppose you're floating in the vacuum of space without a spacesuit, and just a few feet away is the airlock hatch. You can't reach the hatch from where you are. Could you propel yourself to the hatch in time if you farted?

Hello Kitty house might (might) be too much of a good thing, though there are several pieces of furniture I would gladly take...

tommyrot, based on my extensive knowledge of nothing whatsoever, I'd say yes, but only if your butt was aimed in precisely the opposite direction of the hatch.

And since you're probably spinning, and if not you will be as soon as you try to aim your butt, good luck with that.

Trust my rage

Aimee, this is from yesterday but, when my mom used to make waffles from scratch, she would always mix up two batches and and then cook the leftovers 80% in the waffle iron and then put them in the fridge. Then we kids could toast them the next day. They were never as good as fresh, but still pretty darn good.
