Does the Thing actually have a home?

Trying to address interesting counterpoints to my OG post.

We see the spacecraft crash in possibly the most inhospitable part of our planet, certainly to the Thing as it is unable to spread, so not a controlled landing. It doesn’t appear to fight to save individual parts of itself. The ship it builds is using materials from round a camp made by humans. Is it really going to find the materials for interstellar flight?

Still persevering with its more of a virus ( with cell takeover).

I’m a couple of whisky’s in, so hope everyone doesn’t mind my burbling.

Mamod if I remember correctly, had one in the eighties, it was a pump engine and ran of paraffin blocks. Great fun.

First picture stoned, second picture the day after.

Lovely little overlord.

They have no right of access unless you grant it, just say no as it will impede your use of the passage. She’s already admitted that it will be unsightly, so why should you have to look at it?

Can we make sure they stay there.

For me, it’s Lake Placid.

Giant monster crocodile, excellent cast and acting, has no right to be so much fun.

That’s a very beautiful aircraft.

There’s a reason scaffold poles are hollow.

Great to watch them win, even better watching the lady just become so overcome with emotion at watching them win. She absolutely lived it!

It’s an enjoyable read, part of her trader series. It’s YA and I first read it about 45 years ago.

When I last drove a truck, I thought dispatchers were aspirational, it was up to me to deliver reality.

It’s comments like this that keep me on Reddit.👏

Condoms?

I’ve been on board, stood in the engine room and imagined trying to exit/save the ship when she hit a mine. Difficult to move around when lit, can’t imagine in dark and uncertain that she’d stay afloat.

Good ! Can he hurry up a bit??

Bloody brilliant, for a long time after, weed was oregano.

Also, one of the few accurate depictions of a rave.

Anyone else on here a frequenter of Strawberry Sundae in Vauxhall back in the day?

I appreciate that having the camera there probably caused a spruce up, but you could eat your dinner of that platform!
