  1. "Oh man, I think the clock is slow, man." "What are you doing this weekend?" "I don't feel tardy." "Class dismissed!" "Ooh, yeah!"
  2. Wild swing here.... "Django Unchained"?????
  3. A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.
  4. IIRC, it's "Gorillaz" and not "THE Gorillaz", but if you counted the previous post as correct, nobody is counting! "Clint Eastwood", AFAIK, was their first hit. *checks* Get out, they also did a song CALLED "Dirty Harry."
  5. " 'El Breako the Leaso'?" "Introducing Rhea, the Medium. Well done, Medium Rhea!" "I got the golbloots from a booshoo bird?!" "We may have to remove her Zorch." "How can you sell meat so cheap?" "I'm glad you asked that. We rope, we brand, we butcher. We do everything but eat it for you." "What do you know about rice?" "Well, I had it thrown at me on one of the darkest days in my life." "It's going to be called "Bitter Grapes." I wonder what part they want me for." "Oh, you're probably going to be one of the bunch."
  6. kakourgoi vs. lestai Victor himself said all robbers are criminals but not all criminals are robbers. He solved his own contrived problem. There is no contradiction. It's a word choice. _________________________________________________________________ IIRC, vpw never solved it. He brought up the useless point of all "ROBBERS" being "THIEVES" but not all "thieves" being "robbers." (A thief steals. A robber is a violent thief who accosts you with violence or the threat of violence. A burglar sneaks in and steals. A pickpocket sneaks and takes what's in your pocket. A cutpurse is similar to a pickpocket, but cuts a purse's straps or cuts a hole in the purse. So, all of those are "thieves". Only robbers commit assault and battery, and possibly murder. So, the guys being crucified weren't pickpockets, they were threats to public safety. So, the thieves (who stole by robbery, if anyone actually cares) were, by virtue of criminal actions. "evil-doers" or "malefactors". It's not inaccurate to call them either. It's like calling vpw a plagiarist (which he was) and a thief (because all plagiarists are thieves.) So, duo lestai, two thieves, duo kakourgoi, two evil-doers. If another Gospel had called them 2 robbers, we would have people teaching 6 crosses were up there on Calvary surrounding the main cross. Ultimately, it's NOT IMPORTANT. The cross in the middle was important. The shape and construction weren't the important parts, either. Obsessing over either is missing the main point.
  7. This movie was simply "The Simpsons." (Or "The Simpsons Movie.")
  8. You got it. Meanwhile, this is "Dirty Harry" by The Monkees. What?
  9. Wild swing here.... "Shazam-War of the Gods"????
  10. "All the Japanese with their yen, the party boys call the Kremlin. And the Chinese know (Oh-way-oh)"
  11. "I ain't got no body, and no body cares for me, ya katta ta, yaka ta ta, ta!" "I-gor!" "Froderick!"
