Shouldn't she pay some real estate taxes first?

Thinking about it, doesn't this really fuck her over?

I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels their privacy being invaded by this woman forcing her properties effects onto my lawn dammit.

I imagine the owner of Antarctica is pretty pissed off.

 

[Slavik81]

The best thing about being this stupid is that she doesn't even realize how fucking stupid she really is...

It's particularly funny that she 'understands' property law enough to know they'll let her claim the sun... without understanding the concept of an easement.

So can I buy earth?

:lol I would love to see the day a fee is put on the sun!

Put in the hands of activision

This is the untold prologue of the movie Sunshine isn't it?

*Cue Isao Tomita's Arabesque* "Some people hustle pool, some people hustle cars, but have you ever heard about the lady who hustles STARS?"

 

[Patrick Bateman]

Blows my mind how people can claim property on shit they never ever will visit, have the slightest connection to, put their feet on or touch. Just like the same retards who sell and buy property on the Moon.

 

[TL4E]

What was the percent again? 99.8% of the mass of our solar system?

That's quite a lot to manage!

 

[Fimbulvetr]

And when the sun expands and eradicates life on our planet, there is now a single specific woman who will be to blame.

That's what I call negligence.

 

[norinrad]

:lol :lol :lol :lol @ humanity

 

[Anasui Kishibe]

goddamn, she owns all the Japanese now

 

[Ogni-XR21]

I hate people so much sometimes.

My exact same thoughts.

 

[Escape Goat]

My exact same thoughts.

Why do you hate this woman? So what if she thinks she owns the sun. What the fuck does it matter to anyone?

 

[KevinCow]

Man, buying the sun and charging people to use it? I'm surprised Lex Luthor never thought of that one. He could've sued the shit out of Superman for abusing his sun's yellow rays.

 

[Ashes]

Am I the only one who thought:

what? Is the Rupert Murdoch era finally over?

 

[Link1110]

How does she intend to enforce this fee, anyway?

 

[Vormund]

I own Venus. You have to pay me to look at the morning/evening star bitches.

 

[louis89]

In fact, before the Apollo 2 mission, Richard Nixon had to ask Gajardo for permission to let the astronauts arrive into the Moon, which the lawyer agreed.

I doubt this somehow

 

[ChocolateCupcakes]

Sweet, I finally have someone to sue when I get skin cancer.

This post nails it. If she honestly thinks this will go over well, then she is really not as smart as she thinks.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Google won that one

 

[PetriP-TNT]

simpsons did it.

 

[BloodySinner]

This has not to be the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while.

 

[1GabUp]

Sweet, I finally have someone to sue when I get skin cancer.

:lol

 

[kaizoku]

the concept of legal ownership is imaginary and temporary anyway, we made that shit up, no one else gives a fuck.

sometimes I still find it extraordinary that the whole world has bloody lines on it showing which bit of rock belongs to which people.

and then it gets turned on its head and people end up belonging to that land and cant leave without hassle. fucked up.

when we die it'll all be like we invented this fairytale existence that will die with us.

"They took my sun!"

Well done GAF. :lol :lol :lol

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Am I the only one who thought this was a joke? GAF can't be that dense. No one thinks they can tax the sun and get everyone else to pay for it.

I think it's pretty clear this was tongue-in-cheek considering Spain's financial status as of late, and no foreseeable, simple solutions.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Am I the only one who thought:

what? Is the Rupert Murdoch era finally over?

Yes, you are. I understand what you mean though.

This story reminds me of the "MY SON WAS HIT BY A WHITE TEACHER" lady. She's probably kicking herself for not thinking of this first.

 

[Drkirby]

Well, fine, I am going to register the space around the sun! She will have to pay me fees to let me let her sunlight though my space.

 

[Majine]

She will probably regret her purchase in 6 billion years when the Sun will turn into a red giant and destroy the earth.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

It's particularly funny that she 'understands' property law enough to know they'll let her claim the sun... without understanding the concept of an easement.

That was the second thing I thought of too.

The first thing I thought of was that the government, just to fuck with her, should require that she go through about 1,000,000 different licensing hoops, complete with things like requiring her to hold liability insurance on the Sun, making her pay for conducting environmental impact studies, and of course, put her on a property tax schedule.

...then of course, the Earth still gets the easment.

No wonder people always make jokes about Gallegos here in Mexico.
