Well you're the policeman, Jessica.

[Grimm]

have you forgotten your Cato

[Confidence Interval]

It's when you have forgotten about him that he strikes!

[Grimm]

he strikes!

Brilliant scene. I had forgotten that Sellers once used nunchaku.

[Confidence Interval]

If he can use a nuclear bomb he can probably manage most weapons (even if he wasn't the one who actually rode it).

[Grimm]

Yes, that flick has long since become, as the whippersnappers say, "iconic". The PP flicks though are fading somewhat.

[Confidence Interval]

It's not surprising: the first PP film was made almost 50 years ago. Even to an old-timer like me that seems like quite a while ago.

[Grimm]

All film is grass.

Again with the biblical schtick.

[Grimm]

I like to post softly but carry a big schtick.

[Confidence Interval]

But when you need to you really schtick it to them.

[Grimm]

what's brown and schticky

[Confidence Interval]

A schtick?

[Grimm]

I think so.

Also we need more grain imports from Egypt.

[Confidence Interval]

Panem et circenses all round!

[Grimm]

I can smell the a-Roma already.

[Confidence Interval]

I don't know why you got a thanks there. I would give you nero out of ten for that pun.

[Grimm]

What can I say? When I see an opportunity, I caesar.

[Confidence Interval]

Aureli?An odd thing to claim.

[Grimm]

Get Agrippa yourself.

[Confidence Interval]

I did and it was Titus... well, as you-know-what.

[Grimm]

Perhaps you'd better centurion to a lab for testing.

[Confidence Interval]

That would be no good if we suspected Legionnaires' disease. (Needs to be blood or sputum for that.)

[Grimm]

That would be no good if we suspected Legionnaires' disease. (Needs to be blood or scutum for that.)

[Confidence Interval]

Needs to be bloom or scrofula for that.

ftfy

[Grimm]

Good old scrofula!

[Confidence Interval]

The picture on wikipedia doesn't make it look so good, all the same.

[Grimm]

Probably shopped.

[Confidence Interval]

I expect you can tell from the pixels and from having seen quite a few scrofula sufferers in your time.

[Grimm]

I meant shopped around to various studios for a film treatment.

[Confidence Interval]

How bout a videogame treatment?

Really walk into that cloud of foul pestilence?
Okay, then.
You are engulfed in dark miasma.
You are afflicted by scrofula!

[Grimm]

You mean a plaguelike?

[zrn]

Have you guys never heard of the pm function?

[Grimm]

No. What is it?

[Confidence Interval]

Is that when you switch your alarm clock from 24h to am/pm?

[Grimm]

I dislike that because it makes noon "12 pm" and there IS NO SUCH THING

[Confidence Interval]

Right. Midnight is clearly 12 pm.

[Grimm]

Madness.

[Confidence Interval]

Yo, Grimm, step up on the stand
And show these people what time it is boy.

[Confidence Interval]

That's just the US time you jingoistic monster.

[Grimm]

That's right, I forgot you only understand metric time.

[Confidence Interval]

You can get a lot more done when there're a hundred minutes in every hour.

[Grimm]

My people are a poor people, we have only fifty minutes in our hours.
