I’ve started following @SarcasticRover on Twitter. The creation of hilarious humorist and screenwriter Jason Filiatrault, it’s a parody of what the Mars Rover would be tweeting if it was in fact alive, could tweet, and, well, had Internet on Mars.

I have heard a few somewhat similar stories from friends, but I figured I was rather selective in my closest friends so this would never happen to me. Welcome […]
