Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
My horoscope reads: Your fan club is growing -- in fact, you're so well liked and respected that you're praised for things you're only thinking of doing. Be honest about your actual accomplishments -- your modesty will win even more fans.
Well? Where the hell is my praise?

Gamera is really neat. He is filled with turtle meat.
We love eating Gamera!
Of course now I'm also earwormed with Barbara! Barabara! from the mecha-Streisand/Robert Smothra episode of South Park.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm good with living a few hundred years in this life. That's all I want. Yes, I know, that makes me a materialist, and that's badbadbad.
Nah -- it just makes you Hob Gadling.

Like maybe God would give us a starship so me and Einstein and Ray Bradbury could travel from galaxy to galaxy...
Now there's a god I could get behind.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
When Colbert asked him to actually name the commandments, I think he was only able to come up with 2 (maybe 3).
This was a turning point in the West Wing pilot! A bunch of religious televangelist/activist types being frumpy and pissy with Josh and Toby, complaining about the lack of 10 commandments in public places etc. etc., and one of the televangelists is using the 3rd commandment as the 1st, adn Toby keeps quietly correcting him, and suddenly President Sheen sweeps into the room, reciting the actual 1st in his stentorian glory.
It was kind of a foolish scene, because I don't know anybody with any religious education who can't recite the beginning at least of most of the famous phrases; and really, there are a lot of variations for how the commandments are phrased, so you can fudge it a lot as long as you get the concept right, and really really, what do you think comes first when defining the tenets of a religious system?
(I did think it was funny that Bartlet recites the Catholic variant of the 1st commandment, long before he is canonically described as Catholic; both because that's the version I know and because of all the version to annoy a group of fundamentalists, the Catholic version is probably it.)
