What reminds you of Futurama: Part Deux

[Reply #720 on:]

The title of that new Robert Pattinson movie reminds me of the giant Bender statue in "A Pharaoh To Remember" bellowing "REMEMBER ME!!!" over and over.

[Reply #721 on:]

In the Town I live in, Barnsley, There is a street called Peel Street, a Precinct called Peel square and and a retail park called Peel Retail park. Reminds me of a certain forum...

This is the what reminds you of Futurama topic, not what reminds you of PEEL topic.

Haha, yeah, every time I see the name of that movie it's the first thing I think of.

I was out on a fancy dress night, and one of the girls was dressed as a cop, she had a plastic squeaky nightstick... all I could think of was,

"Taste the lash of my 99-cent store nightstick!"

My husband and i love futurama so much that when i was three months pregnant we planned on naming our son Fry and when he was born, the crazy thing is that he was born with red hair hah So his name is Fry William Christianson

[Reply #725 on:]

But, Fry's name is Philip...

[Reply #726 on:]

 If Fry was named after the type of screwdriver why isn't his name spelled 'Phillip'?

If you have any poo, fling it now.

[Reply #727 on:]

If you're smart enough to name your child after a screwdriver then It's not surprising they'd get it wrong.

George Takei is in a new commercial for a television, and he says "Oh my..." like he did in Where No Fan Has Gone Before.

[Reply #729 on:]

The fact that I can't read the word "absolutely" anymore because it always comes out as "obsoletely".

[Reply #730 on:]

I was at a steel dealer today and overheard two guys talking about bending girders and I smiled quietly to myself.

[Reply #731 on:]

 Were they unbendable girders?

If you have any poo, fling it now.

That's kind of funny, because on one of the DVD commentaries, someone says that Takei said "You know, I never said 'Oh my!'."

"Someones been doing my voice"

[Reply #734 on:]

A picture of Fry was in one of my teacher's powerpoint today, he's never even heard of Futurama

[Reply #735 on:]

I wonder how?

Standing in a rather long queue today behind some old people, I was reminded of the queue for Central bureaucracy in HHRHGB...

"Oh, someone just had a baby"

And to think I didn't even know I had a ticket!

I got an email from the Township's environmental consultant warning us to look out for turtles wandering across the parking lots in the Civic Center.  It advised us to look under our cars before leaving to make sure there isn't a turtle chilling underneath.  I think I actually blurted, "To hell with the turtles!" in my best Robot Preacher voice.

[Reply #740 on:]

Chilled turtle soup?

"Watch out for turtles!"

Turtles are awesome though.
Especially small ones, but also especially big ones too.

That is all.

I saw a new brand of Marlboro cigarettes recently called "snus", which naturally made me think if you smoked too many of them, it'd be "death by snu-snu!"

[Reply #742 on:]

Ew, yeah, we sell Snus at the grocery store where I work. It's, like, this little pack of minty tobacco that you squirrel away inside your cheek where it will slowly embed itself and fester into oral cancer. Fun stuff.

But enough preachin'. Yesterday at work I was reading the back cover of one of those pulpy, stupid paperbacks that they sell at grocery stores, and the synopsis listed the main character's last name as Farnsworth. Oh, and today I had to read something about people who are either taken advantage of by--or try to take advantage of--Western Union (again, I was at work), and it said that sometimes people will attempt to wire collateral if they have been told they've won money in a foreign lottery. And I thought, hey, just because I can't be prince of Nigeria, that doesn't mean I should try to stop people from wiring money.

I happened across one of these on my way home from work:

     

Sadly, I could't tell if AlGore was driving or not...
I'll just... ooze... back out under the garage door now...

[Reply #744 on:]

Were any of the drivers screaming like maniacs and/or driving onto ruined piers?

If you have any poo, fling it now.

[Reply #745 on:]

Were any of the drivers screaming like maniacs...

No more so than usual for Los Angeles area drivers...

... and/or driving onto ruined piers?

This was a mite inland, so no.
I'll just... drive ooze... back out under the door now...

[Reply #746 on:]

Maybe it was Al Gore Jr, who got his prius up to 100mph on the Newport Beach Freeway.

Musta been downhill, in a hurricane...

[Reply #747 on:]

I recently did a research paper on a guy named Varian Fry.
Also in Aspen I saw a buisness called PLAN Express. It took every fiber
of my being not to write an et after plan

[Reply #748 on:]

Somebody said they were going to the middle of nowhere. I replied, "That's the safest part of nowhere!" I didn't even realize it was Futurama until now. STOP INVADING MY VERNACULAR!

[Reply #750 on:]

I was going to make fun of that guy for wasting two years of his life, but it's not like I've accomplished anything noteworthy in the past two years either.  At least he has a bunch of Futurama legos to show for it.

[Reply #751 on:]

[Reply #752 on:]

In Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, Phil Lamarr provides a bunch of voices, most prominently Captain Dread, a Rastafarian ship captain.  I feel like I'm talking to Hermes the Pirate.

Rewatching the Friends episodes were Lauren Tom is a guest, rewatching the Losts where Katey Sagal is a guest, and the list goes on...

Are the influences of a certain robot too subtle on the design of this shirt?

[Reply #755 on:]

I don't know what you mean.

The marketing copy does seem a little suspicious, though...

Amongst the "warrior mindset" quotes in the slideshow at Magpul.com, I saw this:

[Reply #757 on:]

Instead of Dickens I thought of Futurama when I came across the name 'Tony Tom' at work the other day.

[Reply #758 on:]

almost 10 years since I saw the episode and KFC's Popcorn Chicken still reminds me of a certain controversial delicacy in the Futurama universe. It's probably for this reason that I wouldn't eat them for a million bucks.

[Reply #759 on:]

I ordered the popcorn chicken once when it first came out. What I was given was a single giant lump of mostly-raw-chicken and batter, fried on the outside. I have not tried it again.
