cleverly disguised as a responsible adult

PSA: Never never never never never buy Yoplait Reduced Sugar (for lo-carb diet) yogurt. I am not now, nor have ever been, on a lo-carb diet - I think the whole concept is silly and in poor nutritional advice. The yogurt was on sale and I figured, "what the hell? how bad could it be?" Famous last words. You have been warned.


One of my favorite Zim quotes is nice and easy to manipulate for use in everyday conversation. Today's incarnation went something like this:
Boy steals my book, starts reading intently.
I glare, then announce: "Let it be known, from this day until the end of the day, vengeance will be mine! You shall not know the meaning of peace, for I shall rain misery upon your Discworld-stealing heart!"
I get my book back. Everyone goes home (back to work) happy.


I need to write more psalms, litanies, and liturgies for the Church of the Almighty Darwin. I figure, if I'm going to hell anyway, I may as well make sure that it's a direct flight. *grin*
The Almighty Darwin is my PI; I shall not want.
He instructeth me to write NIH grants; he leadeth me to bountiful funding.
He restoreth my intellect; he leadeth me in the path of science for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of uncertainty, I shall fear no critical reviewers, for thou art with me; thy weigh boat and thy pipette, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a manuscript before me in the presence of my enemies: thou anointest my head with IQ; my patents runneth over.
Surely fame and tenure shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the shadow of Darwin forever.
Amen
