When Bender is on Chappek 9 at the start of their “Human Hunt” Robot Mayor - Let the hunt begin! Robot trumpeter - (Plays Macintosh 6000 series startup chime) Robot Guard 2- Administer the Test! Robot Guard 1 - Which of the following would you prefer, A; a puppy, B; a pretty flower from your sweetie, or C; a large, properly formatted data file? RG2 - CHOOSE! Fry - Is the puppy mechanical in any way? RG2 - No, it is the bad kind of puppy! Leela - Then we’ll take that data file RG1 - Correct! RG2 - the flower would also have been acceptable ---

From Time Keeps on Slipping Fry: Leela, I built us a time capsule, to keep us safe from all the time slipping _opens broom closet with neon lights, heart-shaped bed and sexy music playing_ Leela: How was this supposed to work, again? Fry: Because when we’re together, baby, time stands still. ---

I would’ve been horrified if the roles had been reversed (Fry gave Leela a black eye for trying to get sex from him). But it’s funny because it’s a woman being violent toward a man. (sorry about the blatant hijack, btw). ---

[QUOTE=Bryan Ekers] Bender: “Oh, how I wish I could believe or understand that!” [/QUOTE] A sort of similar quote, from _Amazon Women in the Mood_: Femputer: “Why? Why? I came here from a faraway planet. A planet ruled by a chauvinistic Manputer that was really a Manbot. Have you any idea how it feels to be a Fembot living in a Manbot’s Manputer’s world?” Bender: “What?” It’s all in the way he says “What,” but it just cracks me up. ---

[QUOTE=Morbo] “Ah yes, the little man with the hat. I WILL DESTROY YOU!” [/QUOTE] You need the whole quote for extra funniness: > [@](#): > > Morbo: Morbo forgot how to read his teleprompter.

Also, from the episode _30% Iron Chef_: > [@](#): > > Morbo: Welcome back. Our next guest has been teaching the world to cook for over twenty years. But apparently my wife hasn’t been listening. [studio laughter] I WILL DESTROY HER!! And now, extend a formulaic greeting to Master Chef Elzar. So, Elzar, what will you be cooking for Morbo to devour with his mighty jaws? > Elzar: Morbo, I’m gonna whip you up a nice, unnameable horror from beyond… with mango chutney. > Morbo: Pathetic humans, prepare to write down the recipe!! > Morbo: Scrumptious. Morbo will store this in his sac for future digestion. > Morbo: [weeping openly] The challenger’s ugly food has shown us that even hideous things can be sweet on the inside. ---

This quote, from “A Big Piece of Garbage”, tells you all you ever need to know about academia: Poopenmeyer: Dr. Wernstrom, can you save my city? Wernstrom: Of course. But it’ll cost you. First I’ll need tenure. Poopenmeyer: Done. Wernstrom: And a big research grant. Poopenmeyer: You got it. Wernstrom: Also, access to a lab and five graduate students, at least three of them Chinese. Poopenmeyer: Um, alright done. What’s your plan? Wernstrom: What plan? I’m set for life! Au revoir, suckers! Leela: That rat! Do something! Poopenmeyer: I wish I could but he’s got tenure! ---

We just watched the “Crustacian In Love” episode last night, if only for the “Star Trek Battle Theme” being played as the National Anthem. I’m bad on remembering quotes, so pardon moi: “male jelly” Fry getting his arm cut off. The physical humor never gets old. “Sweet Manitee of Galilee!” Dam. I gotta go back and watch this some more.
