Today is the day to put some pants on.

Meteor 'Outburst' Expected Friday Morning

After years of suppressing pent-up frustrations, the usually mild-mannered Perseid meteor is expected to let it all out Friday morning.

Unlike other, more outspoken or flamboyant meteors, the Perseid is known for being quiet, polite, sometimes even a pushover. However, after an especially frustration week including rude public transportation riders, an encounter with drunken frat meteors, humiliation by the boss as well as being splashed by a space bus travelling through a space puddle.

Scientists measure the likelihood of the outburst by various factors, including the meteor's clenched teeth, tightening of fists, redding of face and especially burst of cosmic gas from the ears.

The last Perseid outburst occurred in 1985 after a night of drinking, where the meteor insulted the wife of Halley's comet at a cocktail party.

This new outburst is not expected to last long but it is predicted to be spectacular, as well as profane.
