Okay, we're gonna have to add fiver titles and authors to these, 'cause I don't remember that one. It's a great punchline, though.

A fiver punchline of my own that I'd dearly love to use is "It's always time for sarcasm!" It's from an upcoming fiver, but it's not like that punchline will spoil anything, will it?

Hah? Who? Someone call me?

I've quoted my own fivers at people in chats, to general confusion and bewilderment 'cause they don't know what B5 is.

We all know what B5 is. It comes after B4 (never saw the sun shining so bright) and before B6 (half of Riddler's favorite vitamin).

I don't know. I'd probably end up using the panel discussion quotes more than fiver quotes. For some reason they strike me as more quotable.

I sometimes use fiver jokes in RL conversations just because I know the people I'm talking to won't have heard them before. It's cheating, I suppose. But not as much as using the same joke on multiple family members, or even the same one twice once they've forgotten... which I also do. Hmm.

Do they look at you in bewilderment when you keep saying "Hah! Me 1, Chakotay 0!"?
