Got a brainstorm, huh, Sebastian? Milk and cookies kept you awake? Let's discuss this. You better come up, Sebastian.

That's a great line. What youngsters such as @avclub-e57dbebc740250d2c4a370cf6ccb35f0:disqus may not know is at the time the movie came out, espresso was bleeding-edge hip, nothing like the every-street-corner-Starbucks phenomenon it is today.

Hell, I just wish I had an Apple computer.

This movie has a talking toilet?

Oh my god, "Ode to a Superhero" has eclipsed "Pianoman" in my head:

Thank you for showing us that. I liked how effectively you were able to "show not tell." Maybe you should have your own show.

Handing someone a piece of paper does not strike me as aggressive. If anything, it's the reverse. Downright wimpy. "Hi, I'm too afraid to actually speak to you, but on the off chance that you don't find me repulsive, here's my phone number."
