Recap
Previously on Globturds: The Series…
Roundy and Curveball attempted their Great Martian Blastoff with a trash-can rocket labeled “MARS OR BUST.” It flew a few feet, exploded in fireworks and soda, and rained snacks over the cheering crowd. Roundy swore: “Next time, we’ll build a real Mars colony!”
And so today… they “colonize Mars.”
The Seventeenth Experiment: Operation Mars Colony
The Globturds set up camp in the middle of the desert, proudly announcing they had arrived on Mars.
-
Their “habitat dome” was a camping tent wrapped in tinfoil.
-
Their “life support system” was a cooler full of sodas.
-
Curveball’s contribution was a mountain of chips, labeled “Official Martian Food Supply.”
Roundy adjusted his glasses and proclaimed:
“Captain, today we make history — the first humans to colonize Mars!”
Curveball, eating chips, replied:
“And the first to invent Martian snack time!”
The Daily Struggles
The duo struggled immediately:
-
Roundy’s “solar panels” were just mirrors from a garage sale.
-
Curveball drank half the soda supply on Day 1.
-
Their “Martian rover” (a broken shopping cart) collapsed under Curveball’s weight.
When tourists on dune buggies drove by, Roundy shouted dramatically:
“Look! Martian invaders!”
Curveball waved.
“No, Professor, they brought snacks!”
The Collapse
The desert wind ripped their foil tent apart. The cooler tipped over, spilling soda across the sand. Curveball dropped to his knees, crying:
“NOOO! The Martian food supply!”
Roundy sighed.
“Our colony has… failed.”
The crowd of tourists snapped pictures, laughing hysterically. One muttered:
“Best Martian theme park I’ve ever seen.”
The Cliffhanger
Covered in dust and empty chip bags, Roundy shook his fist.
“Fine! If Mars rejects us, then next time… we’ll conquer the ENTIRE solar system!”
Curveball gasped.
“Does that mean… snacks on every planet?!”
The crowd erupted with laughter.
To Be Continued…
Thus ends Part 17 of the saga.
