    Someone make a spin of that old capitalist mindset meme with the button “press to get 1 million bucks but a random person dies” and they spam the shit out of it. But now it’s you (and me) hammering away at that “you get nothing but a random billionaire or pedophile dies” buzzer.

          It’s from Futurama. These are aliens who live 1,000 light-years from Earth, and therefore get broadcasts from Earth 1,000 years after they air.

          The full line being shown here is, “This is ancient Earth’s most foolish program. Why does Ross, the largest Friend, not simply eat the other five?” to which the other alien replies, “Perhaps they are saving that for sweeps.”
