space age screw-up

okej. den här astronauten råkade tappa en verktygsväska värd 750 000 kr under en rymdpromenad och får samtidigt se den lååångsamt glida iväg utom räckhåll. det är nästan som om väskan utstrålar skadeglädje. men det är inget jag upprörs av direkt. alla gör misstag, right? vad det än är som astronauterna råkar ta sönder eller tappa bort kommer vara värt hundratusentals kronor. det är här problemet kommer in. astronauten råkar nämligen vara en kvinna. och väldigt många av kommentarerna till den här filmen på youtube handlar om just detta;

"a women totally screwing up a man's job, yet having the man there to back her up and save her ass. all the while, women scream equal pay for equal work. what has happened to our country that we mandate that women are awarded a man's job."

"I think she just set back the women's equality movement back by a few decades. "

"It looks like she was digging for her cell phone or lipstick the way she tossed that aside. After the female astronaut debacles of past year, I'm just glad as hell Hillary didn't become president."

"HAHA, Zardoz is right on, she reminds me of my wife digging through her oversized purse. Especially in the way she just recklessly tosses aside whatever is in the way of finding what she's searching for. The only tool I ever trust a women to handle is fortunately firmly tethered. ;^>"

"Man, it has been a Bad couple years for female astronauts. One ends up being a stalker while wearing a diaper, another loosees a $50K+ bag of tools. It's about time for NASA to end this silly equality bullshit."

"if it was a man who was out there, he would have tied it up or jumped after it. You would think after years of carrying a purse around, she would have learned her lesson."

etc, etc, etc. alltså WHY?! hon är en fucking ASTRONAUT!!! earths finest! give her a break! jag fattar inte hur de orkar. hon är bättre än dem på alla sätt och vis. hennes fysiska kapacitet, intelligens, uthållighet och skärpa gör henne kvalificerad för att vara en av de som liksom hänger ute på the final frontier. ändå ser de bara henne som ett dumt fruntimmer. jag blir så trött.

sen fanns det en annan intressant diskussion som fördes kring det här klippet. den mellan rymdnördarna;

"not cool, that thing's like a meteor when it enters earths gravity"

"that thing is too small to be a dangerous meteor you ignorant fool! -_-"

"don't call me shit thats not true, and a it doesn't matter what size it is, it could still possibly kill somebody, loser"

HAHA LOLZ @ space nerds!!
