Why?

How Soon Is Now?

My questions:

Hey, what are the odds we'd be on Angry Ankle/Knee Bed Rest on the same day?

Is there a word like "avuncular" that means "auntly" rather than "uncle-ly"?

What happened to your ankle?

En dan?

Mullac: why do anything?

Arse hat: right about now with a good watch

Elsa: I did something to it at the gym and now it hurts when I put weight on it and arch, it's been weak ever since I sprained it last year.

The Latin root for Aunt is Amita, so maybe thing like that?

A good watch of what?

If I keep stroking them, will her ears fall off?

posted by galadriel 02 September | 17:03

Watch out!

That depends, did you spring for the detactable ears optioin?

Who put the bop in the bop-shadooby-bop and how can I go back in time and stop them?

Quo vadis?

And what happened to your uncle?

posted by Eideteker 02 September | 17:14

The very same people who put the ram the ram a lama ding dong. I suspect Freemasons.

Which uncle I've got like eight.

WHAT ABOUT THE ODDS? PLS TO CALCULATE THE ODDS AND ANSWER QUESTION.

posted by Elsa 02 September | 17:55

I suspect Freemasons.

Is "Freemasons" the answer to "Who did it" or to "How do I go back in time and stop 'em?"

posted by Elsa 02 September | 17:57

Both

Was Mason Adams (long time "that guy" character actor and voice of Smuckers Preserves) a Freemason?

While George Lucas is further altering Star Wars, should he re-edit the Holiday Special to include more Bea Arthur, Harvey Korman or Jefferson Airplane?

What IS the greatest kids show theme of all time? (And why didn't the io9 survey include "Misterogers' Neighborhood"?)

and (just to be an Equal Opportunity Offender), would you cheat on your husband with Marcus Bachmann?

posted by oneswellfoop 02 September | 19:02

Yes.

Bea Arthur.

The Muppet Show.

Is this a sting operation or something? Cause every fiber in my being says no.

Isn't this a sweet looking guitar?

If, according to this, the past and future are equally real. What should I have for lunch?

posted by Splunge 03 September | 07:51

Yes.

Since you live a few milliseconds in the past and the future is merely a series of expectations you project, any decision making is just a rationalization after the fact, so I say peanut butter out of the jar.
