At the Mensa society meeting

Lisa: Now next week is our "state of the city" address. Has everyone finished their proposals?

Comic Book Guy: Well first of all I've a plan to eliminate obesity in women.

Lyndsey Nagle: Oh please, for a nickel-a-person tax increase we could build a theatre for shadow puppets.

Dr. Hibbert: Balinese or Thai?

Lyndsey Nagle: Why not both, then everybody's happy.

CBG: Oh yeah, everyone's real happy then.

Lyndsey Nagle: Do I detect a note of sarcasm?

Frink: (With sarcasm detector) Are you kidding? This baby is off the charts mm-hai.

CBG: A sarcasm detector, that's a real useful invention.

(Sarcasm detector explodes)

Well, that certainly gives a whole new spin to "Swiftboating."

Yes, because making snap, blanket statements about people's lifestyle choices is the epitome of logic and reason.

Unless the UID is a denominator with, say, "1" for a numerator. ;)

Despite being trapped in a glass box, a painfully high wind inevitably rises up, and no amount of invisible rope is going to save you from a pummeling. I mean, you're trapped in a box made of glass! Many of them can't take the pressure and mime shooting themselves in the head. A lot of them miss -- with an invisible gun and bullets, this is perhaps inevitable -- but many hit their mark all too well, causing a great red flower to burst from their temples.

Mimes are a truly misunderstood underclass, deserving of our pity, not our scorn.

If it weren't for your user number, a hearty "You must be new here!" would seem appropriate. However, it would feel too much like yelling at old people to be very amusing. ;)

No, but we do see all of the subliminal commands you guys are missing.

We just stay seated when everyone else is ordered to do the chicken dance while singing like Carol Channing during the secret "intermission."

Yes, because non-fiction books are always completely true.

Here's something for you: sometimes, lies are truer than the supposed truth. Sometimes, you can learn more from something that never happened and never could, than you can from something that really did.

Hmm.

The blockers aren't the ones responsible for making the Web unusable. It's the people trying to turn the Internet into television.

Well, reality *does* have a well-known liberal bias. ;)

Now I can angrily wave a holographic display of this PDF while yelling at the soccer-robot-playing kids to get off my xerotolerant "lawn" area.

Speaking as a child of the 80s, I love the future. :)

You must be old here.

"Anytime you're working with a baby pram where you're, say, also carrying diapers, our chainsaw is used to do things like verify that the Pampers fit on that little shelf underneath. If you're carrying some groceries as well, the chainsaw verifies that you don't try to fit too much on there. When you push the pram, the chainsaw makes sure you push it to the right place. All of this stuff has the chainsaw behind the scenes making it work and it's difficult to remove without causing problems," Arkin explained.

I love each and every robot most of all!
