She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself.

[–] Canopyflyer@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

You came in that?

You're braver than I thought.

[–] Bougie_Birdie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 1 year ago

Sure, it looks pretty sleek and modern, but under the hood it's an old cargo hauler with lots of junk in the trunk

[–] angelsomething@lemmy.one 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It’s bigger on the inside. A real wizard sleeve.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

So a tardis

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

No, that's pretty accurate either way.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

She’s built like a steakhouse but she handles like a bistro

My thoughts exactly. Kif, tell the lady captain that her sexy, masculine other captain is ready to see her boobies

[–] darreninthenet@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you ride her through the black hole she'll moan and complain but probably finish the journey

[–] Hwats_so_funny_meow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's what you CAN'T say about both...

It says what you CAN say about your spaceship and CAN'T say about your SO

[–] HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

She's designed to withstand atmospheric pressure anywhere between zero and one

[–] Mefek@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Hmm, so going deep see diving would be a bad idea...

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Is your girlfriend the titan submersible

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 8 points 1 year ago

I've never threatened to cut someone in half with my significant other.

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

She may look pretty rough, but she does what I need of her.

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

On a typical voyage she has 2 pilots, 10 engineers, a field maintenance crew, and 24 colonial marines inside her.

She's been used for countless loads, and she always seems to enjoy getting banged around

[–] aard@kyu.de 6 points 1 year ago

"She's a beauty"

[–] NedMc@infosec.pub 6 points 1 year ago

It's an unspoken thing, but I always touch my dice for luck before I jump.

[–] CM400@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

She’s only 130,000 tons!

[–] DryToast@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

She's old, but she'll get your there.

[–] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Get my what there?

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm going where no man has gone before.

[–] thorbot@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I don’t have one

[–] Vex_Detrause@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Looks like it's back heavy but it'll do.

[–] Z_Karma@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I come in peace.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I’m givin her all she’s got Captain

[–] leraje@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Jettisoning spent fuel isn't such a smelly process.

[–] Xaphanos@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Fly her apart then!

[–] Vex_Detrause@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

"Calm your engines!"

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

She gets there pretty quickly

[–] j4k3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

We must pull up hard to aim the front turrets dead ahead.

*but what of the main gun sir

It hasn't been operational in decades. The loading mechanism is for an earlier model.
