Celestial event? (Frowny-face.)

Just when it seemed like Australia couldn’t get more full of themselves, the skies have to just smile down on them.

Jupiter, Venus and the Moon were aligned just after sunset so that they formed a happy face over the country/continent that gave us Yahoo Serious and Fosters beer. Witnesses also reported hearing the song of angels, but that was just the iconic Sydney Opera House’s choir rubbing it in a little.

Americans will get to see it tonight, one day later. Oh, and because of our position, the moon will be flipped around, frowning at us.

U.S. astronomers suggest just staying indoors at 20 to 30 minutes after sundown, and pretending not to know what Australia’s talking about when they call.

    Yes, yes, we get it. You’re so modest. (Especially now that your happy face night is over.)

    Green card,

    Thank you for your comment. SG is only available in English because that is the only language The Guys are moderately proficient in.

    You wouldn’t want to see us try writing jokes in other languages. They’d mostly be dick and fart jokes.

    – The Guys
