I really don't think you confused him. Maybe I'm giving it away, but it was
all well crafted sarcasm.

AMAZING! Those movies sound pretty neat. I wonder why I haven't seen those
before, being a space nut and all. Are they in theatres or do I have to
rent them? I sure hope they're in theatres, but knowing my luck, they were
made in the late 70s or something, meaning I wasn't born yet.

Geez! 80 weapons? Is there even room for a spacehip with that many guns?
Maybe I should just stop building ships. I'm used to engineering sopme
pretty cool realistic military vessels, with detailed interiors and all.
But, I'm no match for a little (yes, little) ship with 80 frikkin weapons on
it. I think I'll retire early. But 80...seriously, there's no room to
store ammo, much less capacitors big enough for them to be all energy
weapons. Wait let me guess, you suck the energy from interstellar medium,
or use the abundance of gravity in space to charge it?

Ree-hee-hee-heeallly? Wow, you're the man. Maybe we should all stop
building ships.

Your weapons must be extra specially shielded too to survive being shot out
an engine. Hats off to you.

That's ok, looks like you're doing just fine with 80 weapons on a little
ship like that.

Why not invade and explore at the same time?
