God forbid we give this person a copy of "A Modest Proposal." They'll get up in arms about all the baby-eaters in the world.

Not that I advocate baby-eating.

We do anything but copy, at least from the episode we're fiving. Okay, maybe we copy one line, but then we make it setup line for a joke. Basically anytime we copy scenes, it's from other episodes, so it doesn't really count, in my opinion at least.

Oh, and by the way, although there are better things than fiving, there aren't too many of them. I've derived more joy from this site than almost any other, classics like Bob and George and Delta Blues aside.

All I can do is giggle here. There's nothing I could say that could possibly add more humor to this situation.

Do they...have no clue what the site is about?
*waves at all the little puppets who have no clue*
I call them puppets, because it's obvious they have stuffing for brains. Don't they know the meaning of the word 'parody'?

(Yeah, okay, that was blatantly plagaristic really. But still.)
