"We're not leaping, the calendar is."

"Jerk."

I feel like in the future, a highly valued skill for anyone in a public facing role is gonna be learning to get off of Twitter/Microblogs.

How many people have ruined their own reputations by just giving the internet a constant stream of their inane thoughts? Regardless of if they deserve it or not.

"In English, we don't have a word for spicy" - Neil touchgrass Tyson at a linguistics conference.

I'm starting to suspect that being good at astrophysics doesn't mean you're automatically the best at everything else too.

Is that a real quote? I’m starting to think Neil is actually hilarious and we’re all missing the joke

He haa talked on podcasts before how he enjoys trolling on twitter, I can't say for sure the OP image is trolling or him being a dork

"I was just trolling" - a 12 year old after he realizes he just said something stupid.

This guy is like the anti-Bill Nye. He doesn't want to share his joy of science with you, he doesn't want to educate, he just wants to correct you with some stupid ass analogy. Insufferable. No one asked, Neil.

I remember seeing some clip where he schooled a batista about some whipped cream that's melted. Niel, they are just trying to get through their day while not making enough money. They don't need a thermodynamics lessons in the middle of the shift.

I know it's autocorrect or a typo but it's amusing to imagine Neil DeGrasse Tyson schooling the deceased Cuban dictator on melted whipped cream
