Chez Watt

A Chez Watt is "an informal monthly 'award' by the denizens of the talk.origins news group... It is dedicated to highlighting the humorous things posted to t.o. (intentionally or not)."

I will quote some:

  • [the best use of ellipses ever]
    "...Luke... ..I am.your... ..father...".
    -Colossians 4 :14, Genesis 27:31, Genesis 2:24

  • Wow, You couldn't get a clue if you were drenched in clue pheromones, dancing in a clue field in the middle of clue mating season, wearing a clue suit, and shouting, "Clooo! Cloooo!
  • Staggering, your intellect. And then clinging to a lamppost.
  • We could be 100% ape and we still wouldn't be apes.
  • You should realize Usenet is a strange reality where you see people beating up a patch of grass where nine years ago there used to be a horse.
  • SETI is based on the simple assumption that nature operates elsewhere the same way it does here. ID is based on the assumption that nature doesn't even work here.
  • chance? Is probability and statistics based on chance?

There are many more, and I only quoted the short ones. Good geeky fun.

Found at the wonderfully blasphemous Pharyngula, for which you should go vote, now.
