I got this mental image of a bunch of guys trying to invent flight before the Wright Brothers. They’ve got this wingless prototype that shoots off some giant ramp. No matter how big the ramp it never achieves flight. It goes up and comes back down. And these scientists are just chain smoking, pounding black coffee by the pot, pulling all-nighters, trying to come up with a bigger ramp. They bulldoze the whole fucking planet to make the ramp. Now we’re Planet Ramp. The fucking prototype still won’t fly.
Great analogy
