I don't normally make memes, but this is the first thing I thought of when I saw The Sphere.

I'm such a grandpa I googled "the sphere movie" and then felt really stupid. Hadn't heard about this yet. Meme is spot on. Humans trying to completely irradicate nighttime, I swear.

Ever since the first person discovered fire, it’s kind of philosophical when you think about it. hits blunt

I don’t even know what The Sphere™️ is so I doubly identify with this meme

Las Vegas thought it would be cool to build a sphere the size of a skyscraper and turn the outer shell of it into a screen to play 24/7.

Bro that’s some fucking awful bladerunner shit right there wow what a fucking irrelevant wastage if resources and talent

Oh, and of course it's Las Vegas.

Without context I thought it was Ozma from Final Fantasy IX.

Vegas doesnt stop at the whether you should step of an idea

And they were right, it's fucking dope. Doubt they'll recoup costs given Vegas as a whole is dying in favor of online gambling / sports betting and more local entertainment options

That’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. What a time to be alive!
