I have no idea if BO is mean, but I laughed out loud at the camera shot today of mission control and they we all wearing identical tech bro Patagonia style vest with the corporate logo. It looked just like what a high-tech supervillain would have his henchman wear.

What, BO turned my highschool library into their control room - I thought the school had thrown out that brown particle-board-plastic-veneer desk ages ago.
