Say, what _is_ the sound of one hand slapping Shroedinger’s Cat?

There’s a revolutionary new device for storing hamburgers in. It’s called “paper”.

That depends. Is the hand holding a “fork”, a “not fork”, or both?

I would think it depends upon whether the Cat is dead or alive, or half-dead and half-alive.

I wouldn’t go fucking around with zombie cats. Regular cats are enough trouble, but zombie cats, shit, you best run and hide.

No, once again, the pizza wasn’t sliced well, and so I grabbed a knife to separate each individual slice. Why is this so hard a concept to understand? Hasn’t anyone ever grabbed a slice of pizza only to have the cheese come off because it stuck to another slice? I was merely avoiding this, geez.

And I was just teasing. Nothing to get flustered about.

Take a few deep breaths.

You’re supposed to savagely tear the pizza apart with your bare hands.
