I’m sure there would be little unemployement, they’d need plenty of greasers.

@Tom Noir—If they had paid attention to their academics in school instead of only worrying about PE class, they’d know there should be a hyphen:
“Body-beautiful nuts.” Still a really dumb line.

I just realized this is the famous “lost episode” of the Raket and Skibet Show, the one where Raket and Skibet discover their gender orientations by peeping down on naked perfect bodies from a cramped satellite observatory. I’ll bet their heat shield is starting to glow red!!!
Raket: Hey Skibet, look, a natural blonde!
Skibet: Woooohhhhhhoooohhhhboy!!! You mean “blond.”

I was going to make a crack about them being dressed by Jackson Pollock, but someone already did that. Instead, I will note that the golden opacity of the sky suggests to me that no one involved is on Earth.
