2. McThuselah does the same, doesn't he?

4. Because she is a gargoyle?
Wikipedia:

In architecture, a gargoyle is a carved stone grotesque with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building.


So maybe its not quite water that she's diverting.

6. It's the damnedest thing, but after spending over a billion on R&D
Here at RepubRobotics, we just can't get the damn upper lip thing just right.

We got the crazy, beady, shifty eyes down pat, the babbling double-speak generator works flawlessly, the Jeebus H. Crisp hard drive NEVER fails, but getting that upper lip to move just escapes us.

We can do shrill. We get delusional. We even got the bat-shit insane sub-routine down pat.

Don't know yet if it's a design problem, software problem, or just plain old substandard assembly by the sub-contractor on the build-out phase.



:shrug:

16. #1 sympathy post
With a name like yours, you have to be pretty damned cool. That's my favorite Python bit of all time.

"Do you at least take the bones out?"

"Well, it wouldn't be crunchy now, would it?"

21. Well, I love Python and I love frogs, so it just seemed a natural.
Edited on Tue Sep-09-08 06:17 PM by Crunchy Frog
That bit was among the first Python I was ever exposed to, from the Live at City Center album. I had it memorized before I ever even saw them on TV or in movies.

"Nevertheless, I would advise you in future to replace the works Crunchy Frog with the legend 'crunchy, raw, unboned, real, DEAD frog if you want to avoid prosecution."

17. I was just watching her
and wondered if anyone else noticed. She does tend to be rather stiff as a rule, but today it really looked like she has just had a botox treatment. Very bizarre looking!

18. She's trying to defy the "when your lips are moving you're lying" truism as it applies to Repukes
She has yet to master the bottom lip, however.

24. Because she'll neigh when she does that.
She's a part horse, you know.

No offense to the horses out there.
