[color=#000000  ost_uid0]Seems to me like there are three main jokes running around in this thread (by all means, correct me if I'm wrong):
[*]The Cypher-steak gag
[*]The spoon joke
[*]The Delphi gag[/list]and lots of other jokes that shouldn't be forgotten, of course. 
I'm going to take a bit of inspiration from Pteryx here and do a scene for the steak joke.
Neo: Yuck! This stuff is gross!
Tank: It's all we have here. If you're really upset about it, you could always return to the Matrix. An Agent would probably come down on you within seconds, but if you're really persuasive maybe he'll buy you a gourmet dinner.
Cypher: Heh. Sure, persuasive's good. But [iost_uid0]traitorous[/iost_uid0] will get you a steak dinner.
Silence: ...
Cypher: Er, not that I have ever betrayed, say, Morpheus to the Agents for a steak dinner. Nope, never done that.
Now one for the spoon joke (this one's short enough we might be able to tack on the Delphi joke at the end):
Mouse: How's breakfast, Neo?
Neo: Painful. I keep accidentally poking myself with this fork. Don't you people have even a single spoon?
Tank: Sorry, Neo. There is no spoon.[/colorost_uid0]
