How quickly we forget....

On June 19, maritime treasure hunters -- who were looking for priceless submerged hooch in shipwrecks -- discovered a 60-meter-diameter circle 87 meters under the Baltic Sea. Are these the remains of an alien vessel or Cthulhu's personal pan pizza?
Next to the circle is a 300 meter long slide track -- as if the circle has traveled across the seabed before it has settled [...] They rule out theories that there is a depth bomb or mine from the First World War -- or a symmetrical [algal] bloom [...] The most likely scenario is still that there is a natural ground formation.
io9 tipster Dr Nilsson suggests that we're looking at the remains of the Millennium Falcon, which isn't entirely implausible as Chewie and Han have visited Earth (albeit in another dimension). As for a more serious guess, it's the lost Limecat of Atlantis. Also, why didn't my high school guidance counselor inform me that "Booze-Searching Scandinavian Treasure Hunter" was among the world's viable career options?

“I know exactly what that is. It is called, in technical parlance, “jack shit.” Another name would be “eroded rock outcropping buried in ages worth of silt.””
Or, if you have enough pictures of enough different places, a few will look like there’s some kind of pattern to them.
Could be the Titans were just skipping stones several Millennia ago, but 300 ft diameter flat stones are just too hard to find...
Shame on you. That’s spacist.
Perfect. Jarjar to describe the poser. I love it.
“It’s an espressso machine ....no, no, this is a snow cone maker.”
Well, it was MAD Magazine...
“Yes, but they were all bad...”
Jarjar, the most hated politician in history, and the most hated Science Fiction character in literature of any kind.
Mixed emotions here about Chewie. In the white hut? NO! In Science Fiction, yeah, he’s kinda neat.
I remember LMAO about that bit of ignorance on the part of absolutely everybody who worked on that part of the film.
Hey, just write (and film) what you know about.
If you fake it about anything, people who know will out you (and LTAO).

“but 300 ft diameter flat stones are just too hard to find...”
Perhaps not . . . if you’re a Titan.
Oh, I’ve heard stuff about Jarjar that would have made what Wesley was called sound like compliments.
But you’re right. A know-it-all kid who really knows it all is totally annoying as well. But at least he was a cute kid, sorta.
