PIGS.....IN.....SPACE
this is one of the better things we've sent out to the stars. the cosmos is intimidated by a sharp turn of sarcasm. it is totally unmoved by spent fuel rods, or obsolete stores of media. all that just gets pulverised over time.
but radiation that is trashy in nature, like awful hallmark channel type of crap, game shows, SPORTS EVENTS, commercials, politics, religious preaching, and all the other crap we loaded onto one kind of antenna and let it catapult away, all that trash which annoyed us so, is spreading away from us, in all directions, and while some of it gets absorbed into some gravitational sinkholes, we are still responsible for the worst period of electromagnetic interference in history.
ever wonder why aliens don't transmit a message to us. its not that they were driven extinct, or are afraid. its just that its just bad manners!
keep your transmissions classy or pipe down. they don't want to complain , and they wont invade over this. but we are not making friends, the way we are going.
pigs in space, is what saves us from total humiliation. not much else.
