NYCC '08: Marvel Apes Run Wild

[Darthphere]

Jesus, how long have you been waiting to use that.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I just found it, actually. So, like, ten or fifteen seconds, maybe?

 

[Kitsune]

Damn dirty apes

 

[Darthphere]

How long have you waited to say that?

 

[Doc Destruction]

How long have you been waiting to ask how long people have been waiting?

 

[Darthphere]

7 minutes.

 

[Kitsune]

How long have you waited to say that?

Since Heston died. Now I'm waiting for a chance to say "You Maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!" I suppose that it would work for OMD.

The second I heard that he died all I thought was "Great, now we can take his gun."

I did a google image search for "My cold dead hands" and found this:

 

[Darthphere]

That's a great argument actually. If only we all had guns, Hitler would have been stopped.

 

[The Geek Vault]

I actually remember being at the con where the guy suggested Marvel Apes. I know a lot of people hate this idea but I think it's kinda fun!

 

[Kitsune]

Isn't that exactly how we did stop Hitler?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

No, God stopped Hitler with winter in Russia.

 

[Darthphere]

If anything, we stopped him with bombs, lots of bombs, and actually, he stopped himself, with a gun, making a great case for everyone to have a gun, so evil people can kill themselves.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

And for good people to have bombs so we can drive the evil people to kill themselves. The NRA should expand into the NERA--National Explosive and Rifle Association.

 

[Darthphere]

Thats the ticket! Heston was just holding them back.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Maybe they could change the last word from "association" to "organization" so the acronym is NERO, too. Then they could have a whole new sort of crazy attached to their long and storied history of being crazy in general.

 

[Darthphere]

Oh snapz! I like.

 

[Kitsune]

Everything I know about gun control I learned from this issue of PPSS:

 

[TheCorpulent1]

JR Jr., I love you, but Pete's legs are doing something awfully strange on that cover...

 

[Kitsune]

As for quotes... the one I'm really waiting for an excuse to use is: "Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in. "

Unfortunately it was too big for my sig file.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

What is that from?

 

[Kitsune]

What is that from?

Second Hand Lions

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I always meant to watch that. It's got an awesome title sequence.
