Today, thanks to Tim (thanks Tim) I got to read that Korean netizens are all up in arms over answers to stupid questions about a chunk of useless rock in between Japan and Korea I am referring to "Dokdo island " of course. It seriously is a rock, nothing can really live on it and the only reason anyone wants it is because it seems to attract a lot of fish.
Newsflash: Fish live in the SEA not on a ROCK.
We can only hope the thing just sinks into the sea so noone can have it
This brought another idea to mind.
The moon
Using the same " we saw it first" "we stuck a name on it first" logic we could argue for centuries over to whom the moon belongs. Does it belong to the first guy who looked up in the sky and saw it? Well he probably thought it was some magical thing so he doesn't count. Does it belong to the Italians because they got a closer look at it with telescopes? Well that would be like saying I used binoculars to look in my neighbour's house so all their crap is mine. Perhaps it belongs to Russia since they sent Sputnik up there, or maybe to America because we sent up some dudes to walk on it.. ( or not some people say)
Either way none of the afore mentioned people are bitching and complaining over who the moon belongs to, maybe we should. I mean it is a giant chunk of rock and as far as I know chunks of rock are worth getting all angry over and chewing out people on the net.
Just for the record, I don't care who owns the rock, or the moon or anything. Seriously I think Pocahontas had the right idea.... you can't claim the earth

She was a smart Indian girl, that's for sure. I think we should do what my mom used to do when my sister and I would fight over food or something material: eat it or throw it away. So, we should either eat the island or throw it away. Or, if we are working in the real world, then just blow it up; get James Bond to do it, he likes doing things like that.
