... that curly 'f'-looking thing is an 's'? Seriously?

Does this mean I've been spending my whole life pronouncing the word "forte" wrong?

"I call it 'The Franklinator'."

It's not really an f, just a really long s. ſ Taxachuſſets. I'm guessing none of you have ever explored the buildings from colonial America? Just look around at the different signs especially on churches.

I always thought it was just used in the middle, but wikipedia says also sometimes at the beginning? But anywhere I've ever seen it, it's only when used in the middle of the word. So I think this episode was wrong. I've been to Williamsburg, Philadelphia and Boston and all those places, and you only see ſ in the middle of a word. Like Jeſus Chriſt. Which my sister I had fun with when we went to churches asking who Jefus Chrift was.

Guys, it's used like a ligature. It's only used in an "ss" combination, and was designed to save space. It's related to the German �.

Except it's not. It only replaces one S.

That was absolutely perfect Fry,"I work a nightjob because I need the money to afford the coffee that keeps me awake for my nightjob."

"It's like that drug trip I saw in that movie while I was on that drug trip!"

I was rewatching the last few moments of the episode again on my DVR today (missed Ugly Americans) and we've got the thread title wrong - it should be "Bite my fhiny metal aff" - with two f's.

We've all been as dumb as Fry.

No, the current title is the correct way to do it. The show creators have been dumb as fry.

JUST LIKE FRY JUST LIKE FRY

I thought it was "Use body-talk!", since he's in space and there is no sound.

I don't know how you pronounce body, but it was "Use boaty talk."

I agree, Scruffy being some unknown guy there has run its course. He's already introduced himself to everyone a few times, it's not really funny anymore to pretend they don't know who he is. Now he can be part of other jokes, like the murderlator.

Aphrodite posted:

Leela's stays consistent because it's just Katey Sagal's real voice, and some like Cubert stay the same because Kath Soucie is terrible and uses the same voice for everything.

I guess she's lucky she can do two interesting voices because the only two voices she can do are Lil DeVille and Phil DeVille.

Somebody changed my Chamber of Understanding avatar, and took my gang tag in the process.

Whenever I see someone suggesting to buy someone a red text or see someone's avatar get changed to something stupid, I always get scared that it might happen to me. I try to not act like an rear end in a top hat, not because I don't want to get probated, but because I don't want to lose my sweet avatar.

You guys realize you can apparently just buy your own gang tags and avatars back, right?

It would take lots of tiny five dollar bills, and have you priced those lately?

And I'm gonna have to agree that Steamboat Willie should've been the last one, if only for the fact that "That's all you get, jerks!" would've been the perfect season closer.

When did this happen? I don't see it anywhere. Or are you people representing the ending of the segment with "that's all you get jerks"
