I'm not cruel enough to bump That Thread, but I had to share this. [ROFL]

Is that saying that someone actually put it in a script?

It is from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Of this I am certain. I can't find it in writing any where, but I did watch the movie just to prove to myself that I was right... which I am.

NO...We got rid of this virus. But it would be funny if a MEME started here managed to get added to a movie script.

It wasn't started here, was it? We were just one of the early places where it manifested?

It's awesome seeing yourself quoted on google.

Teshi, the evidence indicates fairly strongly that the meme (or at least the internet manifestation of it) started at Hatrack.

*nod* So say the people who were actually here (I haven't been around long enough) when the question was first raised by Thalia. Back then, Google produced nothing.

Now, it does . . . and most appearances can be traced back fairly easily to here. [Evil]

*sings* We started a meme . . . !

*intrigued* Huh, I guess I was actually around (although a rarely-posting newbie) when this all started.

Hey, I was here for a Hatrack Historical Event! [Big Grin]

I can't believe it's still going strang after all this time. It would be even funnier if both Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy has it in their movies.

"Shall" nothing!

We already do -- we're just subtle about it.

Somebody ought to make a Wikipedia entry for Hatrack, too.

But then there's this thread:

quote:
Page 157 of EG, Author's Definitive Edition:

Ender: "So, what does it do?"

Bean: "That's the beauty of it, it doesn't do anything!"

So. Is it? I don't have my copy of Ender's Game, and I definitely don't have the Author's Definitive Edition, and sad me, I didn't know there WAS an Author's Definitive Edition, so I can't verify. Yes? Oder nay?
