Clinton decides to 'help' Bubbles and Faye realise their feelings for each other

SpookyBot arrives to play cupid (muttering about the necessity for doing so)

Eh, Clinton might be a muppet at times, but to be fair to him, he had all of 3 horrible choices for the hand covering and went with the least horrible.

Late, but I have to say I am really not a fan of the new look of Clinton's Hand, I understand wanting a design that is quicker to draw, but it looks like he's walking around with a latex glove, which does not improve Clinton's creep factor.  He should only be walking around with one glove if it's covered with rhinestones.

Tangent: When in Germany, don't ask for 'Rhinestones', as people will probably think you mean this (so-called "Rheinkiesel", i.e. "Rhinepebbles")



What you mean by 'Rhinestones' is (somewhat derogatorily) called 'Strass' over here ...

Yankee Candle has had a "new mown grass" candle for a long time.  The newer "Riding Mower" scent must incorporate notes of gasoline, monoxide, and burnt oil.

Because I have the comic sensibility of a twelve year old, I always got a chuckle out of the name Rotwang. Sounds like a venereal disease.

Actually, it's just German for 'red-cheek(s)' ...

('rot' = red, 'wange(n)' = 'cheek(s)' - note that 'wange' applies exclusively to the cheeks in your face, 'buttcheek(s)' = 'Arschbacke(n)')

Between the two of you, it seems that the correct word for "good pun" should be "cher" (rhymes w/ "chair", not with the singer).

Good puns are a treasure - best to bury it in the back yard.

A good pun is it's own reword.
There is a difference between spare parts, extra parts and left over parts.

The Venn diagram  for Common Sense and Good Sense has very little, if any, overlap.
