Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

someone got attacked with a samurai sword here last night

I was here all night, FTR.

I'm trying to describe the contents of a field. Does one say

  • Name of one or more project sponsors
or
  • Names of one or more project sponsors

Or something else?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I need samurai armor.

Maybe I should just buy new soda.

You wuss! Stab it!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Speaking of which - this photo really shows how Darth Vader's helmet was inspired by samurai armor: [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Everybody knows the great sexual scandal known as "Klinton-Levinsky". After the relations like this Klintons popularity raised a lot! It is a natural phenomenon, because Bill as a real man in order not to shame himself when he was with Monica regularly used Voagra. What happened you see. His political figure became more bright and more attractive. It is very important for a man to be respected as a man!

That's beautiful.

Tom, you can't come in on Sunday. Not only are you trapped in your apartment by the blizzard, you're very sick. Probably the flu. Hopefully you'll be feeling well enough to make it in on Monday...

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I need samurai armor.

Apparently you're not the only one.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Maybe I remember it wrong, but it seemed like a few years ago, 4-6" of snow wasn't a big deal.

Yeah, odd that in the last few years, the public response to almost any adversity seems to be disorganized panic. You'd almost think someone was encouraging that...

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

4-6" of snow wasn't a big deal.

It's not. Unless you live in Northern Virginia, where everybody still does 80 mph through same, and is really surprised when they end up in a ditch.

But, I think snow is as good a trigger for buying oreos as any other, don't you? I mean, how else will you know when it's oreo time? A ktichen timer?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Nutty, it's ALWAYS Oreo Time.

(And -- it's always PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!!!)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I've been hearing predictions of 8-12" of snow. (Which of course means that Long Island and parts of NJ will be buried, and Manhattan will get flurries, but the point is still that there's really no possible way that Tom can get to work on Sunday.)

[eta: 8-12!]

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!!!

Which reminds me: lunch!

Tom, other strategies include: I slipped on unplowed snow and broke my ankle (note: you will probably have to actually break an ankle); I slipped on unplowed snow and sprained my wrist (an ACE bandage will do the trick); or It is Sunday and you and your double-overtime can go screw (um, that's the last resort).
