"Yes, the Universe is beautiful. And, despite all our scientific progress, it's still pretty mysterious. But you know what? The Universe is also kind of an asshole. Consider that you are just a group of atoms structured in a specific way that you can try to understand this thing we call existence.

And 39 more reasons to hate the Universe--along with the one reason we have to love it despite all the shit it throws our way"--
