Troll sighting confirmed, Jim!

This could be hugh! -Sam, let's have the IBTZ count.

.

.

.

Current IBTZ count is 24- including 9 mushroom cloud gifs and one picture of
Donald Rumsfeld with laser beam eyes and lightning bolts coming out of his left nostril.

.

.

.

No cats with machine guns?

.

.

.

No sir.

.

.

.

What about those two "We're doomed!" guys?

.

.

.

Nothing yet.

Do I have to think of everything?- Enable 'doomed' configuration!

I love those guys! Alright, fire up the ZOT9000!!

.

.

.

Right, chief!

.

.

How Ralph got the ZOT9000 assignment is beyond me! He has no clue what he's talking about.
---Tell me about it! He just makes crap up as he goes along.

.

.

.

ZOT9000 advanced systems protocol engaged, Jim! All beebers set to stuned! Oscillation
overthrusters running at one billion jiggiwatts with Flux Capacitor capacitating flux at maximum two
tons per second! Defliberation Laser Transmogrifier speed set to...um... spork-weasel!!

.

.

.

Spork-weasel???

.

.

.

Spork-weasel, spork-weasel..... just as I thought. No such phrase exists in the specs.
---Ralph's making crap up again!

.

.

.

Ralph, did you just say spork-weasel??

.

.

.

I'm not sure, chief!

.

.

.

Idiot! I put in the years! I paid my dues! That should be me up there behind the wheel of the ZOT9000!
---It's all politics, Joe.

.

.

.

Commence ZOT countdown!

Anyone??

[Fawn]

Did you ask for lightening bolts?

[Tiny]

Thanks Roscoe, well done, that's a keeper!

[driftdiver]

"Your post was dripping with sacrcasm. Some people wouldn't know sarcasm if came up and bit 'em in the arse."

Thanks I thought I was losing it. You should see the threatening emails I'm getting now.

Ah well, this is taking away from the work Roscoe put into his creative post. Entertaining stuff on a Friday night.

[driftdiver]

Gee I get credit for an attempt!! Coool

[upchuck]

LOL!! That's fantastic. And so realistic.

[Straight Vermonter]

I was thinking it was the tsunami machine.

[TET1968]

What was the total memory on that thing....40 gigs?

[upchuck]

Lots 'o Freeper lore over here ping :)

[eyespysomething]

roflmao!!! Oh man, even the kids came in the room to see what I was laughing at!

Current IBTZ count is 24- including 9 mushroom cloud gifs and one picture of Donald Rumsfeld with laser beam eyes and lightning bolts coming out of his left nostril.

[RedRover]

Even funnier than "Billy Jack Meets Cindy Sheehan" and "Helen Thomas Burns Rubber" and "Col. Klink Goes on Meet the Press"!!! Beautiful job, Roscoe. I'll think of Ralph whenever a troll is zotted.

[freeangel]

Now, THAT was funny. You should send it over to DU. OOps, that's right--no sense of humor over there.

[MotleyGirl70]

You should see the threatening emails I'm getting now.

I don't doubt it.

Remember the people sending them and ignore them on any thread you see them on in the future.

So, ignore them and enjoy your Friday night! ;)

[uglybiker]

The trolls at DU are busy with other......things.

[MagnoliaB]

OMG! ROFLMAO! Ya'll's sense of humor is great.

[cibco]

Ignore the PEmail's and move on. The nights still young!

[proud_yank]

Man, technology sure is amazing!

[cibco]

OMG!!! How did the camera take it? Photo shop?

[M1Tanker]

Outstanding!!! Go Ralph!!!

[DocRock]

Please add a link to this post on your homepage! An instant classic that we can refer to when asked, "What is a ZOT?" Thanks!
