Remember Mad Magazine's "Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions"? Well, here is where you can add your punchy, sig-worthy ID/UD/Dembscream one-liners!

"Joseph at UD would make even Casey Luskin's eyebrows travel so far up his forehead as to become a cowlick."

(With thanks to Nabokov's Lolita.)

Okay, people, make with the metaphors. :)

Again “how much”. I don’t think that’s a good way to be quantitative.

Thank you for inviting me - I have some new material. First, a little folk song: If I had a WEASEL, I’d/Weasel out of questions/I’d weasel out of answers/All over UD!

Thank you! Thank you! I wrote that myself.

Here’s one from Memory Lane:
ID/UD/We all scream for Dembscream!

Ah, that one never gets tired. And now one for the ladies:
I’m afraid that the only way to tighten Denyse’s prose is to unleash her paeanential…but what if she becomes a bucoholic? </Englishnerd>

Ah, UD: always one frame short of a Sasquatch film. Eating with one chop stick, their pathetic level of detail wouldn't fill a Rauschenberg painting.

Thank you! I’m here until Thursday! :D

Well, I was kind of hoping for your words - you are wittier than the UD guys (unless they unintentionally really let loose with a malapropism). Something along the lines of:

Dembski, Dembski, Dem Dry-ski! Now hear the Word of de Bored! Or...

UD: True Blotter of Old Tyme thou art!
Who alterest all posts with thy sneering lies.
Why prayest thou thus over the archivist’s heart,
Culture, whose wars are Truth's demise? :)

Something like that. :D

That's right, this sweet baby was made in Down House, England. Retails for about a thirty five, ninety five. It's got a leather binding, red bookmark thingy, and chock full of evidence. That's right. Shop smart. Get evidence. You got that?

I know what you're thinking, Dembsk. You're thinking "did he win six cases or only five?" Now to tell you the truth I forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this is evolution the most powerful theory in biology and will blow ID clean away, you've gotta ask yourself a question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, Dembsk?

kairosfocus reminds me of L. Ron Hubbard's Mission Earth decology.

He said in ten books, what it would take a good writer to say in about 300 pages.

Or, if you prefer

Why say it in a few sentences, when, with proper padding, you can make a dissertation out of it?
