Rutabaga beetle burgers are supposed to be delicious-has anyone ever had one?

Sorry, can't say that I have. I did have a snake-n-swiss slider once.

There IS something to be said for gator tail! "Yummmmm!"

Um, really? Rutabega? Ugh. I'm okay with snakes, beetles, and gators, but rutabega? I can't imagine anything making that taste GOOD.

Wait, is vutabega an actual word? If not, it's not so much a pun as... I don't even remember what the word is for basically replacing a letter with another...

Xhosa, the Bantu people of South Africa, might know if that's a word.
(And I think you might be referring to THIS, which is what I was doing!)

Yup; this sure is an alphabet game.

Do you count the Doctor Who specials as movies?

Everybody knows Doctor Who!

FASA made a Doctor Who roleplaying game, quite some time ago. For most of my life, that was my only exposure to the character. I finally got to see him in all his glory when Nine showed up.

How old is Tom now? I know he's still doing audio plays, but he's gotta be a bajillion and a half.

(I think Nommy was all like "They are going to eat this post up laughing!" in his 'nommy' own kind of way! And he's 77? 78?)

Just for point of clarification, Nommy is a 'her' and not a 'he'.

Let me get this straight- 77 is LESS than a bajillion? o.o

Might be. Hard to figure out how large a bajillion is. I believe a bajillion is larger than umpteen.

Only if you don't consider computers as people, which is just technophobic.

People are people, so what can it be?

Real nice, derailing such an awesome philosophical debate. Real nice. We were going to discuss whether computers can be people.

Very well. Let's ask each other questions and attempt to discern whether each participant passes the Turing Test.

Yeah, you wound up with the right answer, in the end.
