I didn't knew you could remotely claim ownership of anything.

I hereby claim the Milky Way, and Im now your landlord, or a spacelord.
TOO LATE! I already claimed ownership of the rest of the universe.

Eat it.

But look, she's planning to donate 10% of the proceeds to ending world hunger and another 10% to research. Presumably to find the cure for being stupid.

I claim ownership of Space. Now to get Gene Roddenberry back from the grave to pay me royalties....

This is the funniest thing I've read all day.

I should charge that woman a stupid tax, or better yet, a breathing tax. For every molecule of air she breathes in, she owes me a dollar for each molecule inhaled. I thought of it first, so she better start paying up. Best thing is, I don't have to go outside while the sun's out; she has to breath 24/7.
With my breathing tax, I shall now decide on how many diamond yachts I shall buy.

Does she take Visa?

Also, how does she deal with people who refuse to pay? Repossession is going to be a *****.
I believe they'll have to start employing special "Solar Repo Men." Start running!

Seriously... think of the implications. Every single solar-power device on Earth is taxable.

So much for doing the world a favour lady... you've just sabotaged the cleanest source of energy we have.

K then, I'll just write myself a receipt for ownership of the universe and demand an existence tax. All the proceeds will go to building the world's biggest water slide.

The first thing that sprang to mind when I saw this news article (actually, a translated version) was: Why is this a published news story?

Then I remembered that most news outlets are in it for pageviews. Who cares if it's not noteworthy or has any effect on anything in the world? If it's sensational enough, people will click through.

I never asked to use her sun, it's always getting in my eyes and being annoying, forcing itself on ordinary citezens, what is she going to do if we don't pay, take the sun away? I think we need to send over over so she can personally enjoy her property.

wtf this is got to be a joke said "she now wants to slap a fee on everyone who uses the Sun"
so shes going to charge everyone on the planet because we all use it for vit D
We're all gamers here, we don't need no stinking sun. Let's all stay inside and if we ever have to go outside, we'll bundle up and wear sunglasses so that no part of the sun will touch us. Through that, we are not using the sun. We can go out at night too, f**k the sun!

I propose that we form a raiding party, walk over to Spain, pillage, and claim the sun in the name of the internets. All in favour state so in an obvious LotR reference!
