Nope, you’re replying to mine.

Don’t try to trick me into thinking this isn’t my thread. I have a Polaroid of this thread right here, and it says “This is mine” on the back.

I have a tatoo of your Polaroid of this thread so that means you killed my wife.

All of you delerium sufferers had better hope the administrators don’t visit this thread. In case they do…

Write this down: If the words “Charter Member” appear under your screen name, that means you already paid $4.95 to the Chicago Reader. Tell your mail server to hold all electronic invoices for ‘SDMB subscripitions’ until next March. If they go so far as to slip a bill under your door, fold it up and hide it in the Gideon Bible for safe keeping.

Let me spell it out for you, Lenny. You’re a vegetable. A freak. Your doctors don’t believe you. The police don’t believe you. The only one who believes you is me Leonard. And I don’t really count, do I? So the only one who’s going to do anything about it is you, Leonard. Your on your own.

Wouldn’t it be cool if someone started a _Memento_ humor thread?

The guy from “Memento” and the girl from “50 First Dates” went out for drinks. They have a wonderful relationship, even if neither one can remember it.

Does that mean that Carrie-Ann Moss and Adam Sandler are now an item too? :eek:  
(I was going to write an obligatory _Memento_ joke in this post, but I hit submit before I remembered to.)

Yeah, Blank Slate was such a cool concept! Definitely agree with you there… I think a darker and more serious take on it would be cool, too! Someone like Michael Rooker would be great for that part.

No no no no … they need to remake _Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind_ with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the leading role. He could be a secret agent who’s had his memory erased and then goes to Mars. We could call it something like “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale.”

I have a post-it note on my monitor that says “Fact 4: Check the Memento thread” but I can’t seem to find it.

Cite?

_It says “Charter Member”_  
Did I do that? Member of what? …  
Where was I? Hmm, okay, let’s pay this. $4.95…Paypal…done.  
Say, Jerry, how many memberships have I paid for?  
**Three or four, but it’s okay because you always forget you’ve paid for them.**
