“Hey, look at that puppy! He must’ve finished a whole box of powdered donuts … !”
“Sure, you can pay me in Internet stock … !”
“Wait, wait—you’re telling me all I have to do is mail 100 dollars to these ten people and send a letter asking for the same to these hundred people, and I’ll be a millionaire in six weeks? Hmm. Sounds logical to me …”

“I bet this Raiders helmet can stop a bullet. Here, take my gun and shoot me in the head …”
“At last, my time machine is complete! Now I can travel back to 19th century Ireland and get myself some good potatoes …”
