Wow, you're fun.

Remember that time Star Wars went into bondage? Of course you do. No one can ever forget slave Leia in her metal bikini. Never.

I think if we're going to rename it we need to come up with alternative names.

I am against this back-door approach to renaming planets.

I'm 31 and still giggle when I hear titmouse, so probably not. tee hee hee

How about "Urectum?"

Stomping your feet always makes for a good argument.

10 points to Gryffindor!

But that method will probably result in no fireballs whatsoever! :-(

That Mork turned out to be an Ambassador from The Culture.

That Jack from Fight Club is Calving all grown up.

That the Phantom Menace would be a good movie.

It's only reasonable extrapolation to assume that within the present decade you will find yourself married to a duck.

This is where critical thinking comes into play. If you think critically, you take the facts, reject the framing and evaluate the facts on their own merits.

I prefer to smoke the freebase form of the internet while in a drunken stupor.

That actually sounds like a good coping mechanism. "Let's focus on something we can all do together, like use chemistry — erm I mean use the oven — to bake things!"

Indicate all the electronic appliances around them - the TVs, DVD players, smartphones, microwave ovens, satellite dishes, GPS systems, laptops, Nintendos - everything that they just got for Christmas or are currently using and take for granted, and ask them if they were made by God, or by scientists.

Focus on applied science. Specifically how applied science pertains to fermentation.

Booze helps. If there is no booze around then I just roll my eyes and smile at my overly religious relatives.
