Important notification:
"1985" by Bowling For Soup* was released in 2004.
So the following confusing sentence, which I recommend you tell people without any context, is true:
The same amount of time passed between 1985 and "1985" as passed between "1985" and now.

I think I'd be a pretty bad President.
Aide: President Weir, there's been a terrorist attack on-- what are you doing?
Me: (on the floor) I just really need to calculate where the foci of the oval office are.

"Hi, welcome to Traitor Joes."
"Uh... don't you mean TraDER Joes?"
"No, common misconception. Can I interest you in selling nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union?"
"Um... I don't think--"
"How about surrendering West Point to the British?"

I have to give mad props to "The Orville" for their recent handling of time travel. They used actual Einsteinian physics to go forward in time via time dilation, and they even show the stars blue-shifting in front and red-shifting behind as they travelled near lightspeed.

For her final 3rd grade project, my daughter chose to do her "favorite book moment" diorama on Ryland and Rocky's first encounter in Project Hail Mary. Now her teacher is going to read the book for the first time thanks to her project!

I guess I wasn't obvious enough because I'm still receiving a lot of email about it. To be clear: Emma Stone is not really going to play Rocky. That was an April Fool's joke.
No disrespect to Emma intended. I love her stuff. Check out "Maniac" on Netflix if you haven't already.

Emma Stone will be playing Rocky in the film adaptation of Project Hail Mary opposite Ryan Gosling who will be playing Ryland.
Though the film will be a little different from the book, the onscreen dynamic and romance scenes will more than make up for the minor changes.
