Mike: The billionaires Jeff Bozos and Richy Bronson were the first people to go space! Astrotourism here we come, woo!

The ultimate sign that someone has rich privilege. Something that poor folks will never get to experience.
Fuck astrotourism. Maybe if people like Elon Musk, Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos put the same amount of money, time and effort into solving world issues(like hunger, corruption and climate) we wouldn’t have these issues anymore. But nah nvm keep being frivolous POS and showing the real difference in classes here in US.. rich and poor! Not white and black.
But hey, the rest of us should definitely start driving electric vehicles and making all the sacrifices we can so the elite can continue doing whatever they want. It’s only fair..

I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
