I wonder if making another browser spoof being Opera would work too.

I think friction and mass will affect those pulls non-linearly, probably to the point of the snail not able to even move. See, now you’ve made me go and ruin the whole cartoon premise!

You are so right, I forgot about the mustache. But its got to be something like a horseshoe or a really big handlebar. Muttonchops might work too.

You’re not allowed to wear those unless you shave your head and put on a jump suit.

Clearly Big Invertabrate was behind this.

In eastern MA, we have towns Berlin pronounced BERLin, Peabody pronounced PIBudee, Quincy pronounced QUINzee. I’m sure there’s more I’m forgetting.

Sometimes I’ll take 1mg of melatonin, and a cup of warm milk with honey.

When your brain explodes out your other ear, you don’t want to be getting any in your eyes. Also, its not a plug, it just ties them to the table so you don’t steal them.
