Funniest/strangest planetary flavor text

[33tango]

It looks to me like the planetary flavor text is randomized still like it was in Elite, which provides for some funny or strange combinations. Anyone have a good one to share?

i.e. This world is very well known for it's inhabitants ancient loathing of discos and the Esustiian spotted cat.

I still wonder what edible arts graduates are - people studying on how to create edible art or edible people studying art in general?

Well, if you study the system description grammar, it’s clear that “edible” is a creature_attr_adj and “arts graduate” is a tharg_creature_noun_4.

Living, dead, inanimate. Trumbles will eat junk food, literally.

We should really have some. Would solve the problem with nuclear energy on earth, as they also do eat radioactives

Screet who recently read an excerpt of a lobby-document pro nuclear power which reads that throughout entire earth there has not yet been found a single place where the radioactive waste could be stored safely and given the many years of trying to find one, such a place might never be found

The word hoopy makes anything funnier.

But why would a lobby pro nuclear power claim such a thing? Wouldn't they rather argue that the places found so far (salines, deep-see, etc.) are safe enough?

The reason to claim that no place is safe enough, is to give weight to the validity of dumping it where they will. If nowhere is safe, then anywhere is good enough given enough lobbying.

It was meant for their own use to make clear how important it would be to get a government change that allows them to continue instead of keeping the current one. Sadly, that did happen...

I would guess that you being a human does make you edible - it's just that common people do not like humans to be eaten, but history does prove otherwise

Because our only chance of developing technology to reduce our stockpiles of long-half-life waste is to continue to develop more advanced forms of nuclear reactors.

But this is definitely a question for Outworld. :-)
