The science community has been trying to plead their way back into the good graces of standup comedian Nate Bargatze for years now, but he's not budging. They've deceived and plagiarized him ever since he was in elementary school, and he's had enough. Check out this clip of Nate talking about how he was way ahead of the celestial curve back when he barely even knew how to read.
