I can't understand why we still use the phrase, "It's not rocket science!"
Rocket science isn't complicated!
If we as humans exercised even a smidgen of educational due diligence (or a modicum of intelligence, or *GASP*—both!), rocket science would be unremarkable fare for the sixth-grade level or so - maybe a week-long lesson thrown in with the natural sciences as a "fun hands-on" example of simple, real-world applications of the curriculum.
I'm officially upgrading this outdated drivel. I don't care if Webster doesn't know or care, because Webster can stuff its "New World" up its annoying little etymologically-unfaithful ass. Webster's a trendy fucking pussy - and so are you if you let anyone or anything determine the century your brain lives in.
Anyway, things have changed since the 1800s. (Of course, the Chinese already had a firm grasp on rocket science by the 13th century A.D., but why humiliate "modern civilization" any more than it already implicitly humiliates itself? Besides, everyone's fuckin' oblivious to everything these days).
The new equivalent phrase is:
"It's not extrapolatory multiversal quantum mechanics!"
That should last us a good couple of decades or so... but somebody else is going to need to nut the fuck up and upgrade this bullshit again, once artificial wormhole technology is perfected.
