12. Well, see, that's the great thing about the comma-particle beam
I can set the beam to be extremely narrow... if I want. :)

25. I can't find it on the intertubes....
But here's the text. I've had it on my wall/in a scrapbook for years now...

Calvin: You know, school wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to go every day.
Calvin: ... And if you didn't have to learn anything... and if you took away all the teachers and all the other kids. If it was completely different, school would be great.
Hobbes: A lot of things are like that.
Calvin: Nobody asks me how things ought to be. I've got tons of ideas!

:D

16. Sure
Lemme find my other comma-particle beam projector.



Careful, though — it needs some adjustment. Sometimes it fires semi-colon particles.

23. Well it is the day after Easter.
Technically known as Gellin' Day. Der. I thought you, of all people, would know that Oedi. I'm disappointed in you.

That's why I hate most cooking shows: they use "plate" as a verb.

22. I loathe that in sportswriting, too
I think I once — once — wrote in a baseball game story, "So-and-so's single plated So-and-so."



Afterward, I flogged myself with tildes.
