Would it be in poor taste to say "Hey, I've seen this one before!"?

This sounds like something that was made up for a fallout game.
Of course, so does "bombarding myself with xrays and moving around to entertain the audience looking at my bones" and "including uranium in paint to make watch dials glow"
The article language wry much makes it sound like attempted murder, "lunging at her with a knife" you don't hold a knife toward someone and rush toward them unless you're planning on stabbing them.
Neither I nor the article writer were there, so we don't know the exact motion, but the words of the article make it sound like attempted murder to me.
Legit, my old job required a 90-day change, and I once logged into a system I could do monetary damage on with ease, because I took a guess at my manager's password based on how long it had been since he told it to me during an emergency.
He did what every single person I spoke to did. "password 01" changed to "password 02" and I just tried twice, and sure enough he had changed it three times since he had told me.
While I wouldn't be ruining the company as a whole, I could have easily fucked over the individual location because scheduled password changes just ensure people use predictable passwords.
"Okay, cool. Family knows when to drop a subject. Good luck!"
I could listen to a 10 hour version of the intro to St James Infirmary.
It slaps hard
What's the story, Wishbone?

Well, we would choose a specific thing or group of things close together that we want to look at, and launch for that specific thing.
Once done with the primary mission, all the neat things we pick up on while getting the primary taken care of can be looked at.
That's what we already do with space things anyway. It just happens that most of the telescopes we've built to date were more general purpose. Hubble has/d a much broader scope than JWST, but you can't discount either for their value.
I'm probably not making my point very well, but basically we wouldn't just send it somewhere arbitrarily (which I'm sure you already know, but some might not think about that) and hope to find something cool, we will intentionally target something and then go from there.
We technically have the tech to do this, what we lack, is species cohesion and cooperation to lower the effective costs of said endeavor, and the patience to wait for it to set up. Being so far from the inner planets means it's gonna take a long time to get in position.
I like your optimism.
I don't share it, but I like it. The world could use more optimists.
Come on, Flying.... You knew that the minute you named them Coca-Cola Disney Unilever.
I mean can you just imagine the teasing we would have heard on the playground with "cola"? Everyone knows colas are the lowest soft drink.
Imagine how much of an insecure, whiny little baby you have to be to look at a LITERAL CHILD and say "yep. I'm picking a fight with this CHILD"
Sure would be a shame if [REDACTED] happened to these board members and pigs.
