Damn, I knew the moon was just a slice of cheese, but I didn't know that neutron stars were a dairy product, as well. The universe really hates lactose intolerant people.

    It’s where the ‘lactic’ part of galactic comes from.

    maybe they should’ve been a little more tolerant if they didn’t want to engulfed by a giant ball of plasma

    a dying neutron star

    A Black Dwarf is a thing, but not yet.

    Edit: nope, White Dwarfs have a different evolution path.

    Btw, what hapens with a pulsar after he's done pulsing?

    If cooling down counts as dying. They don't produce heat or have much activity at all

    They're still neutron stars though. As far as we know the only ways for a neutron star to stop being a neutron star is for enough stuff to fall into them that they collapse into a black hole, two merge to become a black hole, or if they get eaten by a black hole. Otherwise neutron stars are just about the most stable things in the universe.

    Original joke was something specific to lactose intolerance, like milk or yogurt. This anti-joke just replaces it with something that would destroy them like that regardless of their lactose bigotry.

    lactose bigotry.

    How is it bigotry to be lactose intolerant when it's not a choice any individual can make? Being lactose tolerant isn't even a trait shared by half the world's adult population.
