No Biggie—It’s Just Your Water, Your Oxygen, Your Positioning Controls, And Your Ability To Dodge Solar System Debris.

The Russian computers aboard the International Space Station have failed. All of the scientists in the universe are baffled but Bossy is not because, in a word: they are computers.

Here is a photo of a shuttle engineer trying to fix the Space Station computer:

Which looks precisely like the photo of Bossy’s computer last time it was fixed! Give or take Zero Gravity and some Ass Crack:

This Is Just One More Reason Bossy Didn’t Go To Astronaut School.

   People who spend time around Macs always look so happy. I’m starting to wonder whether or not Apple sends a month’s supply of sweet delicious heroin with each iBook or iMac or iWhateverthehellitscalled.

   Ooo, I see Bossy has a secret Mac Genius Friend as well. An absolute must when you enter the neon-colored, Yippee Skippy Apple world.

   Is it that the space station is not Mac compatible? I hate when that happens, and astronauts are in peril.

   The computers have failed because they are computers.

   Congratulations, you have just passed the entrance exam for IT Support. Now learn this phrase by heart: “Have you tried switching it off and on again?”

   Noelle, even worse is when they leave their iPods at home and they can only listen to the ship’s Muzak at night. Total bummer.

    Mac genius is smiling. But he won’t be smiling when he gets the blue screen of death, will he?

    Hey! I know that forearm! Plus I only have one Mac Genius on staff with a blue head.

    YOU’RE FIRED, MAC GENIUS.
