    If only Sandra Bullock had Uber, she wouldn't have ended up on a planet ruled by apes.

    1. Will4Freedom   11 years ago

      Aw, Man! I knew I should have waited through the credits. Totally missed the ape part.

      1. Fist of Etiquette   11 years ago

        It was implied.

        1. Pro Libertate   11 years ago

          She's Nova. Well, a rebooted Nova.

        2. Bee Tagger   11 years ago

          Stop undressing me with your eyes, you damn dirty apes.

          1. trshmnster the terrible   11 years ago

            +1 racist undertones!

  2. db   11 years ago

    Payne takes his vacuous style to all-new heights.

    1. Almanian!   11 years ago

      LITERALLY

  3. db   11 years ago

    Why is the Michelin Man wearing a Hamburglar mask and working for Boeing?

    1. Swiss Servator, Grundgesetz!   11 years ago

      Times are tough, so he has turned to a life of aerospace crime.

    2. Doctor Whom   11 years ago

      If only we had more labels, we'd know.

    3. NealAppeal   11 years ago

      I thought it was a Ninja Turtle...obviously Donatello.

  4. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

    Lets see. Uber only uses private individuals in their own personal cars. That car was able to make orbit.

    So... Where's my flying car then?

    1. Almanian!   11 years ago

      "In next month's 'Popular Mechancs', we review....."

    2. sarcasmic   11 years ago

      So... Where's my flying car then?

      Just across the horizon, right next to the practical electric car and fusion power.

      1. db   11 years ago

        So, we're only one step away from time travel, then! Sweet!

  5. Will4Freedom   11 years ago

    HA! I know that's not real! If you look at the crescent moon, you can see a star behind it. If that were real you would not be able to see a star cuz the moon is round... and made of cheese.

    1. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

      That's no star - it's debris from when we tested the killsat on the moon.

      1. hamilton   11 years ago

        THAT IS NO MOON.

    2. Doctor Whom   11 years ago

      That's Islamophobic.

    There's no road for the car. OMG IT'S SPACE SOMALIA!

    1. db   11 years ago

      Libertarian. Paradise.

      1. Florida Man   11 years ago

        A cold, empty, womanless environment. Isn't that what we have at H&R?

        1. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

          I thought this place was ever sprewing flame and filled with snark and spam.

          1. Florida Man   11 years ago

            Oh really ! Don't forget the sarcasm.

        2. Almanian!   11 years ago

          That's Epi's soul. HyR is what UnCivilServant said.

          Mmmm - Spam?....

              AIR SLAP!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

              1. sarcasmic   11 years ago

                If a hand is slapping, and there's no ass to feel it, does it still make a sound?

                1. Almanian!   11 years ago

                  whoa

                2. Swiss Servator, Grundgesetz!   11 years ago

                  Slap ass koan?!

          2. Rich   11 years ago

            *slap!*

  7. Almanian!   11 years ago

    OK, after last night's debacle on my part where I ONCE AGAIN completely misread a comment and, in turn, offered shriek-level stupid in my reply.....let's see if I can do better this morning:

    1) I don't get it.
    2) Horrid, therefore perfect.
    3) NEEDZ MOAR LABELZ
    4) If I were sage, I would say, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
    5) What ever happened to The Gobbler? I liked him. I remember he was a big Suderman fan.
    6) HAPPY FUCKING SLAP-ASS FRIDAY, REASONOIDS!

    I hope you get hit by a truck and die drowning in a pool of your own blood!

    PS Scots choose FREE SHIT! over FREEDOM! I am not surprised. That is all.

    1. Pro Libertate   11 years ago

      Undead Robert the Bruce is assembling the parts of William Wallace as we type.

        1. Pro Libertate   11 years ago

          Happiness through submission.

    1. Tonio   11 years ago

      Yeah, that, too. Although I have some suspicions...

  9. Pro Libertate   11 years ago

    He's in a no-chamber crafting plans within plans within plans with his Bene Gesserit witch.

    1. Almanian!   11 years ago

      The 27th Duncan at his side, protecting him.

      That would be good.

      1. Pro Libertate   11 years ago

        It wouldn't Suk.

        1. Swiss Servator, Grundgesetz!   11 years ago

    1. Pro Libertate   11 years ago

      AUP: Anthropogenic Universal Pollution. Why, the vacuum near Earth is already less vacuumy!

      1. mad.casual   11 years ago

        Why, the vacuum near Earth is already less vacuumy!

        That's just weather.

    2. trshmnster the terrible   11 years ago
