[SarcasticRover](https://twitter.com/SarcasticRover) is the first ever Twitter account that has made me go back to Twitter on a regular basis. It is hilarious.
That’s cool, Obama. I didn’t want to talk to you anyway. I had shit to do. Like look at this rock, and that rock… and this pebble… dick
Can’t wait to drive around and look at some other rocks. I bet they’re amazing! LOL JK They’re probs still red and shitty
In honor of Erwin Schrodinger’s birthday today - I suggest everyone try to kill something adorable with a box.
Not to brag or anything, but my mast is over 40 inches long when fully erect, and also, it has an atomic laser on it… ladies.
Did a science and there’s ICE ON MARS! Now if I can find some whiskey, I’ll be happy. LOL not really - still going to die here.
First data from MARS! Lots of rocks, mostly red, everything’s cold, surprisingly high levels of depression.
Is there an Olympic medal for looking at rocks and slowly dying?
I took a picture of a mountain… which makes me just like EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER SEEN A MOUNTAIN.
Just found a rock that looks exactly like Clint Eastwood… so basically, I found a rock.
No everybody let’s do a SCIENCE!

ROVERsez: Just noticed there’s a SUN-DIAL on my back! Bet that’ll be real handy when I lose power and don’t want to miss an appointment. WTF?

I think he sounds a little like Aziz Ansari: [Curiosity speaking](http://marsrovername.jpl.nasa.gov/) (warning, video may play automatically).

Nice, but I still think [Bronx Zoo’s Cobra](https://twitter.com/BronxZoosCobra) is better! (But then I’m more of an animal than a space person.)

Is this just some random guy who’s riffing on the possibilities of “what Curiosity might say” (great $20,000 Pyramid category!), or is it someone who works at NASA?
My current favorite: “Shark week on Mars is lame, they just lie there in the dirt flopping around and dying of several evolutionary incompatibilities.”

Random guy. Actually apparently a comedy writer from Calgary who never expected SarcasticRover to actually go anywhere.

It’s also a bit of a takeoff on the actual Curiosity ROver’s Twitter, whcih is seems a little cutesy, such as
I’m safely on the surface of Mars. GALE CRATER I AM IN YOU!!!
