Q: If Chapek 9 is the Mob Planet, how could the Mobs exist if everyone is a mobster (mobs need innocents to take advantage of)?

[Reply #202 on:]

[Reply #209 on:]

A: Nosforatu IV, Kohlma and Price V.

Q: What makes them scary?

Q: If the Professor had to have a different job, what job would that be?

[Reply #215 on:]

[Reply #227 on:]

A: One technique is to always be sure that your profile is all Bender can see and then pretend to eat, but actually put the food on the shoulder Bender cant see.

Q: Are there better techniques than these two?

[Reply #228 on:]

A: Yes; telling Bender you are sick & can't eat ensures you don't even have to see his food.

Q:  Who would win in a running race?  Bender, Fry, or Zoidberg?

[Reply #237 on:]
