hey wait what did I ever do to Clarence Thomas?

That thong fought in the Second World War; show some respect

Phil may have failed to anticipate the future, but I still say that “why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid.” is a completely true thing to say.

Great mathematician but terrible philosopher in my opinion.

Ming, a cavalry commander? Well now that’s a horse of a different color.

oooooooooh I had to sit back and stare off into space for a while after “I can’t even imagine what kind of dystopian alt-present we’d be living in without tech billionaires who loved and supported their transgender daughter.”

Well, it might pass by briefly on its way down.

It’s not cheap stuff; do you think wicker grows on trees?
