Murder's a bit extreme. Simple castration should suffice.

It's not attempted murder if he succeeded.
quote:Originally posted by Quislet, Esq.: OM, when invading a foreign country should one bring red wine or white wine?
Depends on the country. Iceland, for example, requires a nice chablis, whereas Canada is more like Pabst Blue Ribbon.

quote:Originally posted by Kent Shakespeare: Miner, what's the definition of "soes" as used by Lardy in the above post?
It's a combination of "do" and "souse", so not only is he accusing you of asking a question that seems "repeticious", but he's accusing you of being drunk in the process.
"Repeticious" itself is a cross between "repetitious" and "delicious" which implies that while he thought your question to be imitative, he was secretly digging it.

I believe it wouldn't be too hard to draw a corollary between the rise of the Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis partnership in the late '40s, the needs of post-WW2 audiences to find *something* to laugh along to, and the use (starting in 1947) of LSD as a psychiatric drug.
But as far as the French go, I think they just like control freaks.

Hmm. Toughie.
Mighty Mouse beat the Supes movies with the whole turning back time thing, and he figured out early on that cats were evil.
However "Look! Up in the sky!" is just a little bit cooler than "Here I come to save the day".
Bakshi is hipper than Fleischer.
Both are corporate shills. (Thanks, Apple.)
In the end, though, the mouse was created as a parody of Supes, so Superman gets the edge on points.

First let us ponder the thought of a Huge, Pulsating, Ever-Expanding Ghost Chicken out searching the universe for its lost heart.
(Hey, it made *me* chuckle.)
Anyway, it gets the heart back when it pays what it owes. Considering the interest accumulated thus far, and the lack of job opportunities for ectoplasmic poultry, I ain't holding my breath.

For starters, I highly recommend you *not* cook it in the Time Bubble. I've gotten used to this reality.
As for cooking tips, given that the Linear Men are probably looking for you as I type, you're going to want something quick. I suggest some black pepper, a dash of paprika, and the lower settings of your blaster.

Well, the flying lemur subsists largely on fruits, flowers, and leaves. Since these aren't major pockets of these on Legion World, it's likely they've all migrated.

Probably because 30 and 50 don't equal 40.
(OK. Serious answer: No one is positive, but it probably is taken from the days of the jukebox, which in the '50s generally held about 40 records and the owners of said boxes would fill them with the most popular records in the area. Top 40 radio slots originally meant a broadcast of the records released that week, but eventually adopted a popularity format, which has itself changed over time.)

She's probably a communist. I bet she uses Splenda instead of proper American sugar too.
That said, if it's an auction, the auctioneer will probably tell you if the pie is plain blueberry like God intended or some weird miscegenation of blueberry/coconut.

Because of the negative connotations of the "ice" ending in our culture.
No one wants to live in something called a "hice", and referring to a loved one as a spice is best done in private if at all.

I suggest the Burroughs/Gysin approach: Cut out the words in each book, mix them up randomly, and construct your own epic tome from the paper.
This is even more fun if you borrow the books from the library.

*a* cereal? They would have at least 10 different boxes, which would cross over in different combos in various Limited Editions. And don't get me started on the variant boxes. Or the toy surprises in each one....
Anyway, some sample ingredients:
Hope Flakes: Milled corn, sugar, Malt flavoring, distilled optimism, Vitamins D, B, & E, shredded cardboard from the 2008 presidential campaign, blue food dye.
Love Loops: Transgender maize, Sugar, high fructose corn syrup, sugar, pure corn, sugar, glucose, sugar, spice, everything nice.

Given that most of the people who have claimed to seen one have been heavily criticized, I believe that Bigfoot is actually better classified as an ad hominid.

West, because even though they shut down the 17th street entrance for no real reason I can see, it is nowhere near the confusing mess the Red Line has become.
DC Metro was simply not prepared for the numbers the rally brought, and it was for the best that we walked.

quote:Originally posted by future king: OM, Does crime really not pay, and if so, how come?
This has been misinterpreted over the years. This statement wasn't a warning for people to not commit crimes; it was a warning to the lower-level crook that once the various Overlords, Master Planners, Super-Villains, and Insurance Companies took their cuts, you weren't left with enough to justify the risks. In short, it was the thug equivalent of "Taxation Without Representation".

No, but I've put money in a trust that will accumulate interest over the centuries. I have robots programmed to tell him to collect it when the time is right. It's the true source of his fortune.

Unless you count the inherent chaos and unpredictability inherent in the universe, then no, there really isn't a good reason for everything.
For instance, no one has come up with a good reason for the existence of Hot Pockets. Or Merseybeat. Or the movie White Chicks.

Decoupage.
It's easier to do while drinking and any kid can do it. Indeed, most art critics agree that the masters of this form are drunken 10-13 year olds, which is why wine sales in France have remained steady.

The problem is that most worlds only have one or two of the requirements, and the rest tend to already be spoken for by one cabal or another.
Your best bet for bailout money is to get yourself elected to an LW office and just embezzle the cash. At some point, you'll be expected to anyway. It's practically a Constitutional requirement.
