Come now, there's no way Cmdr Brian came out with that. It's pure Crwm.

I've admitted to filling in dialog whenever I can remember what people said (or, you know, whenever I think my made-up talk will be cooler than the jibber jabber folks actually spew forth), but I guess I don't see that line as particularly creative. That's the sort of thing Commander Brian would say.

Anyway, and more importantly, don't get sucked into the netherworld of Nabokov/Samsa slash. N/SS is a cruel bitch/goddess that will take all your time and talent and leave you high and dry. Don't start.

Maybe I read it in a different tone. Now you've suggested it's not funny, I can imagine it being delivered in a smile killing way. The way I read it, it was snappy. Banterian. Maybe EEO isn't as big at my work.
On the topic of the siren N/SS, have no fear, I'm sure my fantastically short attention span will come to the rescue once again.

And I'm not even educated enough to know why it's so funny!

I now know who Gregor Samsa is, and my sig is no longer a metaphorical dunce's cap.

I just hit wikipedia to double-check Nabokov. That would have been kind of embarassing.
