NARF!!
There was a kid in high school who almost got suspended because he kept on yelling this at random times.

Wasn't part of the joke that Pinky's ideas were actually the good ones?
"one is a genius the other is insane" everybody always assumed pinky was the insane one. But he was the genius.
Brain got the excellent speaking voice.
I met Maurice LeMarche at comic con way back in maybe 2002 or so at the Futurama panel and got him to record the Brain's "Yes!" And also "Oh, what luck! I've got a French fry caught in my beard!" as Orson Welles from the Critic onto my Palm Pilot, lol. Used them as ringtones for years. Very nice guy.
At this fucking point, I’m willing to hear Marvin the goddamn Martian’s platform and think he may be on to something with his Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator.
"we'll get wid of the taxes and waise the tawiffs. Beautiful tawiffs, the best ones... some people - good people - say. We'll call it tawiff season, uhuhuh!"
He has a solid platform based on earth shattering kabooms.
My favorite theory about pinky and the brain is, in the opening song, they say "one is a genius, the others insane", but when they say "one is a genius", they show pinky, and then they say "the others insane", they show the brain, indicating that pinky is the actual genius in the group and the brain is the insane one.
Narf indeed.
Zort even
Puit, you blasphemers!
Troz
The theory I heard was Pinky was the genius and his goal was stop Brain from taking over the world. He always found a way to stop his plans. So it tracks that the song would go that way.
The only reason we think its the other way around is because the POV is from The Brain's twisted perspective.
Not making fun of you but I can hear the WB fan typing away at his 90s computer about this lol
I wouldn't be surprised if someone trips and, in the act of trying to break their fall, yanks off Trumps human suit, revealing that he is actually a giant chicken.
If he were a chicken, he'd probably care more about dealing with bird flu, even if for purely selfish reasons.
That is very sound logic.
You'd think. But he got his safety so he pulls the ladder up behind him.
It's literally just poop inside the chicken fat-like skin suit. It explains everything, including the smell.
I heard that NASA upgraded the likelihood of Earth being hit by an asteroid and I thought to myself...that might not be so bad.
They downgraded it again after taking more observations.
Great. So we're stuck like this?
Unfortunately, it seems that way unless we can find another rock headed this way.
Pinky was the genius
As a kid, I obviously thought it was Brain.
I think it was all Pinky just doing it for a laugh with his insane friend.
We largely see the show from the perspective of Brain. It's not unbelievable that Pinky, or some of the "stupid" things he says are hallucinations, whether visual or auditory and that Brain attributes his hallucinations to Pinky's "stupidity" due to the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Obviously, this is a death of the author interpretation but... I think we all died this year anyway so that feels alright
The episode where Bill Clinton is the first 347th term president and Canada Nukes America is starting to look too close to reality nowadays.
Narf!
Free popcorn and squeezy cheese for everyone. Free them! Narf!
Zoink!
Wasnt their plan to take over Chia-Earth, since they destroyed the original earth?
Time to invest in some shiny pants.
The Brain is insane, Pinky is the true genius. We only think it's the other way around because the POV is The Brain's.
It's not for nothing that Dems have a current approval of 20%
The only reason for that is that people are fed up with Democratic feckless spinelessness. It should never be interpreted that people are flocking to MAGA as an alternative. If the Dems got their shit together, and had some strong and courageous leadership, they could easily take back the power.
Yesterday I was watching Schiff on one of the political shows, and he acknowledged that the Dems had been moving slowly and carefully, so as to not upset the citizens. Then MAGA came along, and proved that Americans would respond well to "bold" action. It sound like he may have learned a lesson by that.
The time to show that bold action was the day after Biden's inauguration, when they should have rounded up HitlerPig and his henchmen, and shipped them to Gitmo for extended interrogation. If they'd done that, MAGA could have been purged from our government by now, with little to no violence.
Instead, he appointed the weakest Republican in history to be AG, who dragged his feet, giving HitlerPig a two year head start to run out the clock.
NOW they are understanding the need for bold action, now that their meekness has allowed treasonous Nazis to take over our government, and it is almost surely going to take years of ferocious violence and the deaths of thousands to get it back.
