He is a freaking libtard! I have a way of drawing them out of the woodwork. I can smell them a mile away they’re completely humorless and run for mommie (admin) when they are bested and exposed

As usual the ignorant comments role in.

Question to the know-it-alls on the thread. Has ANY Male in space EVER had tools untether and not been able to recover them?
