maybe UFO's are just the missing 'y' s off the "bouncy castles" ๐Ÿค”

It would be a massive relief to be taken up in one either way.

the 2% are Castles in the Sky

Image transcription: Castle in the Sky (Japanese: ๅคฉ็ฉบใฎๅŸŽใƒฉใƒ”ใƒฅใ‚ฟ, Hepburn: Tenkลซ no Shiro Rapyuta), also known as Laputa: Castle in the Sky, is a 1986 Japanese animated fantasy adventure film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki. It was produced by Isao Takahata, animated by Studio Ghibli, and distributed by the Toei Company. In voice acting roles, the original Japanese version stars Mayumi Tanaka, Keiko Yokozawa, Kotoe Hatsui, and Minori Terada. The film follows orphans Sheeta and Pazu, who are chased by government agent Muska, the army, and a group of pirates over Sheeta's crystal necklace on their way to Laputa, a mythical castle flying in the sky. An airship carrying Sheeta โ€“ an orphan girl abducted by government agent Muska โ€“ is attacked by air pirate Dola and her gang, who seek Sheeta's crystal necklace. Attempting to escape, Sheeta falls from the airship but is saved by the magic of the now-glowing crystal, which lowers her gently. She is caught by Pazu, an orphan who works as a mechanic in a mining town, and he takes her to his home to recover. The next morning, Pazu shows Sheeta a picture his father took of Laputa, a mythical castle on a flying island, which Pazu now seeks. However, Dola's gang and Muska's soldiers arrive looking for Sheeta. After a chase through the village, Pazu and Sheeta fall into a mine shaft, but are saved again by the crystal. In the tunnels, they meet Uncle Pom, who shows them deposits of the glowing mineral Aetherium, the same material as Sheeta's crystal.
