The last time I tried to flex my fandom I was wrong, but If Harley was 5 or 6, that’s 10-11 years ago, and he had smoked week like 3 times his entire life before making Zack and Miri with Seth Rogen, which was in 2008 (I know, released in 2008, but I would think this story might still pre-date his now obsessive…

It was definitely a great episode, and it might be a scenario we have to deal with if we ever develop sentient artificial intelligence.

Yeah it seems like the actual mechanics (huh huh hah hah huh) of it would be easier with the vacuum.

I’m going to go out on a totally wild limb and say that since the vacuum has a nozzle, you can probably stick a dick in it.

This headline immediately made me think of “The Measure of a Man,” one of the best ever episodes of TNG, imo.

HAHAHHA wasn’t it also like a custard machine or something?

I prefer throw pillows to a lot of humans.

I am forever grey but check this out from the other-greys below (I wanted to tell someone not-grey so it didn’t get missed):

I hope it’s something to with the fact that the last story didn’t REALLY have Santa Claus in it. Not the real one at least. It’s mean to lie to children like that.

I don’t know if I’m Pinkham’s Lawing myself or not. I find Holly’s story amusing, but if I were the owner of that coffee shop, I’d shit a gold brick to find someone who doesn’t actually work there working there and getting burned and whatnot.
