“The Universe Wants to Kill You”

Some JREF forumites wanted a t-shirt with a fun Neil deGrasse Tyson quote to wear to The Amaz!ng Meeting 6 in June (you’re going, right??), so I’ve added them to the Skepchick store! They’re basic tees for men and women (+ one fitted women’s shirt) with no profit added on. If you were looking for a way to start a conversation with one of the coolest scientists of our time, I think this should just about do it.

In addition to founding and continuing to run Skepchick, she hosts Quiz-o-Tron, a monthly science-themed quiz show and podcast that pits comedians against nerds. There is an asteroid named in her honor.

  1. (*gasp!* I hope I don’t have to take out a restraining order against the Cosmos!)

    Oh gosh, can you DO that? That would be so cool. My personal life is screwed up badly enough right now that I really can't think of anything smaller than cosmic powers to blame, and if the cosmos had to stay 100 feet away … dang! Way cool.

  2. Oh crap … I bet somebody high-hatted the monkey, and THAT’S why the universe wants to kill us.

    Or somebody high-hatted the universe, and now the monkey wants to ki—

    We KNOW who high-hatted the universe. It's all those 13-year-old boys wanking off and killing angels.

    Why not? Apparently you can sue god…

  5. Subpoena one of his representatives.

    That would have to be a lot of subpoenas as they all claim to speak for him.

  6. That would have to be a lot of subpoenas as they all claim to speak for him.

    And most of them disagree with each other, which would be wildly entertaining in a court of law. Let's do it!

  7. Side note about the T-shirt. I have a friend who's a mostly-retired punk drummer, and he has been a skeptic in just about every possible way since before he'd ever heard the term. I thought he'd get a kick out of the slogan on the shirt.

    His response: "I think that shirt would be much better with 'I'M THE UNIVERSE' on the back of it."

  8. I want a restraining order against god.

    I think that would be awesome.

    Sorry folks, god ain't in this church, 'cause I am.

    No atheists in foxholes? Well, no god either.

    So much potential …
