You know you watch too much Futurama when...

[Reply #160 on:]

You'd probably be dead from smoking, drinking alcohol and coffee too much.
You can recite the whole 'Robot Hell' song from memory.
You use phrases like "Sock it to him!" and "Aroooooo!" in everyday conversation.

[Reply #161 on:]

- You believe the Harlem Globetrotters are a race of super beings.
- You encourage your best friend to take up drinking hard liquor and start smoking cuban cigars.

You always play video games except for that one time when your eye started bleading.

[Reply #166 on:]

You made a $300 dollar bill.
And tried to use it at a store.
And it worked.
And you bought 100 cups of coffee with it.
And saved people from a fire while they were in slo-mo.
And you went to a museum and asked "How much for an art?"
You shared a feast with some hungry, hungry hobos.
When asked if drinking beer makes you stupid, you say "No I'm.. doesn't!"
When your sibling wakes up, your in his/her room and say "Welcome... to the world of tomorrow!"

You left out the part where you got arrested for counterfeiting.

[Reply #168 on:]

Since 300 dollar bills don't exist, the only thing for which you can be prosecuted if you use one to buy things is theft.

Situational irony: When a scene in a film/play etc. is written in such a way that the audience think they can predict the ending but then something totally different happens.
Dramatic irony: When the audience or one character knows something that another character doesn't.
Literal irony: The use of words expressing something other than their literal intention.

Most of the time when people use the word "irony" they actually mean "coincidence". Or "hypocrisy". Or "sarcasm", "misfortune", "lying", "poetic justice", "in-jokes", "I-can't-think-of-a-good-word-to-use-here"...

I watch at least two episodes a day, does that count LOL.

I continually say Whaaa!!!!

My friends do that, but I wouldn't say that I watch too much Futurama. (Just how much is too much?) Anyway, most of my friends would like it if they just sat down and watched it, but they won't watch it because it's a cartoon.

Anyway, you know you watch too much Futurama when you relate everything around you to an episode.

Ex:

"Hey, half and half! There was third and third and third in I Second That Emotion."

"Hey, church! Bender went to church in Hell is Other Robots, and he met God in Godfellas!"

"Hey, coffee! Fry drank 100 cups of that in 300 Big Boys and the coffe machine attacked him in Mother's Day!"

These are just examples. It could also be something much better.

[Reply #180 on:]

when it's hot, you say: morbo is pleased, but sticky (referring to yourself...)

your mobile phone ringtone is the futurama theme tune (yes, it is...)

you call your sibling an "evil, mental, doooooork!". or tell them, "you stink, loser." or, "sir, you forget yourself! shut up!"

refer to your significant other as your smismar (i'ma try that later)

do what you like to people and blame it on freedom day

do what you can to prevent yourself from getting boneitis

you won't eat popcorn chicken from KFC because you KNOW they're really popplers...

if your hands get cold, you stick them between your buttocks...

when you say "i'm bored! lets go" when there's a silence

when you meet someone knew you say, "i knew a guy once...you look like him...he wasn't either..." and then pass out.

you find the most erotic part of a woman's body is the boobies.

i could go on like this, but i will stop....for now...

You know all the Episode Titles, in Cronological Order.
You pronounce ask, aks.
You cross the street and try to blend in with a crown of pimps.
Whe someone is talking to you, you say 'That's whatever you were talking about for you'
You have Sims skins of the futurama characters.

My mum has a habit of trying to talk to me from several rooms away.  However she doesn't raise her voice, so I can never hear what she's saying.  I used to have to ask her to repeat herself a few times.  Now I just say "That's whatever you were talking about for you" and the conversation ends!

I don't have skins of all the characters.  Just Leela.

i got the tune (in written form) from CGEF, but i had to edit it becuase it was too long for my phone. so i just cut out one of the repeated parts of the tune. sounds great. here's the link to where i got it: http://www.gotfuturama.com/Multimedia/NokiaStuff/
you have to have a phone with composer capabilities. if that tune is too long, i can write out the one i have for you.

so this post stays on topic:

when you consider cutting your nose off and selling it (or perhaps even using it. eeeeew).

[Reply #187 on:]

..when you keep checking back on old posts to see what people have written, and then write it out so everyone knoews....

[Reply #188 on:]

when you bebox the theme song.

[Reply #189 on:]

Cheers to Marla_Singer..

I keep playing the song 'Baby Love Child' from 'Leela's Homeworld'

[Reply #190 on:]

You refer to your local cinema as 'the popcorn stadium'. You attempt to find a compatible joystick to control Fry's left ear. You get somebody to kick you in the face just to compare the experience to that of watching a Futurama episode. You invent a martini maker for your car. You search for seven leaf clovers. You question the lack of robot sitcoms on television. You play the episodes backwards and search for hidden meaning. You start a petition to get a Clinton monument erected (so to speak) in Washington DC. You always end introductions with '...of the planet Omicron Persei 8!'.

[Reply #191 on:]

You download the song “Baby Love Child” (actually done this).
You buy a Pizzicato Five album just because they sung it (all their other songs suck by the way).
You sign up to the military to get cheap gum.
Your shocked when people act as if Nixon was dead.
You argue for your right to bear doomsday weapons.
You open any unlabeled box just in case it contains an alternate universe (one of these days I’ll find it).
You walk into shops and ask in a hushed voice “Ya got any human horn?” (actually done this).
You attempt to build yourself a robot friend.
You succeed in building a robot friend.

[Reply #192 on:]

no problemo roddney

tried (some time ago) finding that rush song in AOI but failed (actually tried - little help anyone? i couldn't find out the name of the song so that made it kinda hard to download. i have a handful of random rush songs on my computer). so yeah.

That theme is too long for my Nokia too - could you maybe post your edited one, in the form written on CGEF, if that makes sense? (what I'm saying is that I don't know how to type it all in unless you write 85*# or whatever  ) That would be really cool! 

And to stay on topic:

You explain to everyone in your Lit class how Gwen Harwood's "A Little Night Music" is, in fact, extremely similar to "The Sting", and in order to illustrate this, tell them the entire plot of the episode. :blushes:

how about i make you a deal - i will write out the tune the way it is written in the phone and i will tell you what each key means. sorry i'm lazy and it's a hot sunday afternoon.

phew! that is how the notes should look on your screen (that's why i've started a new line every few notes, cause that way it's easier to tell where you are on the screen).

1 - 7 are as follows: c, d, e, f, g, a, b.
when you press them, a number will precede and follow the letter eg, pressing 1 usually shows 4c1. the 4 is the length of the note. press 8 or 9 after you've typed in the initial note, to shorten or lengthen the note respectively (16 and 32 are shorter and shorter, 2 and 1 are longer and longer). the number that follows the letter (ie 1 in this example of 4c1) is the pitch or octave of the note. 4c1 is a lower note than 4c2 which is a lower note than 4c3. to change the pitch, just press the * key after you've typed in the note. to make a # note, press the # button (funny that) after you've typed in the note. to make the note have a full stop in it (this makes the note half as much longer than it is already) just hold that note's button down until the dot appears.
i'll give an example illustrating this using one note

for 8.c#3 type
1(hold till dot appears)#**

good luck

marla_singer you legend!  I tried that out on my phone, and it sounds absolutely fantastic. And those instructions were really helpful as well, so thanks! You should ask about putting that up on CGEF, seriously. So thanks!
