Stum, there are two things you need to stop doing on this forum; Spamming and Disrespecting other people's opinions. Everyone doesn't have to have the exact same opinion as you. Just because Shiny doesn't like Kurt's "Cop" idea, doesn't mean you have to go out of your way to explain why she is wrong and you are right. And don't act like this is the only time you've disrespected opinions; you've done it countless times in almost every single thread I post in. Every time, you basically say that X's opinion is incorrect and that yours is 100% right. You seriously need to stop doing that, as it makes you look like an extremely immature child. As for your spamming, posts like Thanks.
or Okay.
Are entirely unacceptable. As Beamer mentioned to you in some other thread, this is a Forum, not a Chat Room. Don't take this spamming problem lightly; if you continue this activity, it will eventually get you into alot of trouble, and even potentially get you banned. Please take this advice, and stop doing these things, for your own benefit.

Well said, MRM. Well said. But I hope you know that you just wasted a few minutes of your life that you'll never get back.

I get what you're saying, but I said that to LMP, not ShinyMetal***.
I never said I hate the "X Becomes a Cop" idea; I just said it doesn't sound like a good one.

^ And that kids is what we call spamming!
Before I get myself worked up, I think any episode with good Bender humor, a good sci-fi plot, and some good shipping is as close to a perfect episode as I would ever want.
(edit): Not you MRM, I mean Stum.

Here's more:
Solid Gold Bender, you don't tell penis jokes because your penis is a joke.
No offense to SGB, of course. But you've gotta admit, that was pretty damn funny.
No

That's not the point trying to be made and you know it.
Nah.
Maybe.
Yeah, I'd also like to apologize. I'm glad you weren't offended.
I don't get why you hated his "Bender Becomes a Cop" idea so much. He obviously came up with the idea for the purposes of entertainment, and he wouldn't want Bender as a cop in real life.
The reason "X becomes a cop" is a laughing stock is because it's ridiculously unimaginative. Characters conveniently getting new jobs is a really lazy premise for an episode. Additionally, Bender becoming a cop would be rehashing "Law and Oracle".
It has nothing to do with him being inept at the job.
Yeah, this pretty much sums up my comment about "X Becomes a Cop".

Sorry...but nope. It was already laid out that the same (or at least similar) job will serve different plots when performed by different characters. E.g. "Let a character become a musician" was as well the premise for "Devil's Hands" and "40% Leadbelly". Both episodes turned out very different. "Law and Oracle" was based on the premise "Outsmart someone who can see the Future". Taking Fry as normally rather dumb character provided a sharp contrast. In Bender's case, "A lawbreaker suddenly has to uphold it" would probably turn out to be the episodes focus, completely different from Fry's plot (no one doubted that Fry would try to be a good/honest cop). Can we just ban him for spamming?
I do not see a legitimate reason for that. Stum uses relatively few quotations, and most of his posts do not contain them at all.

You know, I'm surprised nobody reported this thread to me and I had to discover it on my own.
Infractions:
multiple double posts one word posts derailing the thread complaining about each other memes in lieu of original thoughts/posts
In the future, if you think someone is breaking the rules, report it. Posting to complain about other posters is not "an idea for a perfect episode" and is clearly off-topic.

Not to mention the perfect episode already exists and is called Roswell That Ends Well. It hits almost every mark: Consistently laugh-out-loud hilarious, clever sci-fi plot, lots of great character moments. The only downside is the lack of Hermes and Amy (though, I guess that was for a good reason, given racial equality at the time), and I suppose some might mark the lack of an emotional component (or shippiness) against it. Still, these things would all be key ingredients for a perfect episode, in my opinion. A little bit of ALL Futurama's strengths at work, without predominantly falling into one category or the other.

Nah. Scruffy gets old after a while, being some " mysterious" character who we really know nothing about. (Ya, I'm back. I couldn't resist anymore. )
