“I’m paid to think and write about these things”

[IGotATreeOnMyHouse85]

You haven’t been paid to do that in years, piggy

 

[Treat Yourself]

Both of them are faggots. Rules lawyering made-up rules is high up there on the gay meter.

 

[TorpidSloth]

"I'm paid to think and write about these things."

Not so.

 

[Kurt_Love]

There were lots of "that's just not how any of this works" on the Josiah tapes too. Canyon facts

 

[Turk February]

Correction - "my mother in law gives me an allowance while I think and write about these things"*

He hasn’t had a contract in years and is currently trying to get a publisher to buy a book nobody wants because it’s such a stupid idea.

Is it just me or is he trying to reboot his 2017 personality lately?

 

[TheGhostOfAbeVigoda]

Like him writing FICTION makes him any sort of an authority on anything.

 

[BakersfieldChimp]

Is he doing the Mars shit again? Liquid water can't exist on most of Mars because it would boil or freeze but having water on Mars is one of the many steps in terraforming it.

Is it just me or is he trying to reboot his 2017 personality lately?

That would be the best possible outcome. I got another 5+ years of this in me

 

[JoeCumiawearsDIAPERS]

“Paid to think and write about these things.”

Yet he can’t fathom someone having $17,000 lying around to fight a subpoena

 

[SFWA liaison]

someone show the paint balloon tweet to that guy

In his mind it is much more feasible to build a floating city in the sulfuric clouds of Venus.

 

[CuntFucker .]

He's thinking on spec now.

 

[SpaceEdge]

One of the weird things about fatty is what he perceives a "science fiction author" to be.
He spends all his time attempting to be an authority on things instead of imagining cool, perhaps a bit fantastical ideas based on reality

A good author would go "oh, I could imagine a technology that could overcome this!"
Patrick says "no child, not possible!"

It's one of the main reasons he will never be a good author, that and the obesity.

No STEM degree, no real professional experience in this field. Just occasionally Googling so he can win arguments online

I had to look up what regolith means. As it clearly isn't a word in his vocabulary. And if I don't know what it means, Pat sure as hell doesn't either.

Regolith is the layer of broken and unconsolidated rock and soil material that forms the surface of the land

Pat: There liTerally is no soil on Mars!!

 

[DominusOdium]

Paid by who? You used to be paid by people dumber than you to play pretend. But you fucked all that up.

Engineers, mathmaticians, and scientists wasted all those hours in university, when all they had to do to become experts is write scifi novels.
