A space ant fires its lasers
- DanielBMarkham 8y agoMeta: I know people hate click-baity headlines, but it is the weekend and sometimes things are a bit more lax around here then. I love clever headlines. Not the lying click-bait sort, but the kind that make puns or tell the summarize the story in a fun way. It used to be that after you bought the newspaper, you were done making financial decisions. But editors would still stick these stories with cute heads deep inside. It gives a feeling for the tone of the people putting together the content. For my money, for folks who like these things, "Giant Space Ant Fires Lasers At Earth" is just too much to pass up.
