Does anyone have the comic of the guy who invents the cure for cancer, then Obama says "you didn't build that" and the guy throws it away dejectedly? I realized recently that I use that comic as an aphorism when I run into largely psychological setbacks. I'll be acting all overly negative then I just think, do you really want to be the guy who threw away the cure for cancer because Obama hurt your feelings? I still have trouble grasping there's any other way to interpret that cartoon.

You bet!

I have never watched that show, but I've heard about it a hundred times, and each time it's someone describing another episode with a hilariously stupid premise.

There's an episode where SVU (you know, the sex crimes unit) goes undercover to stop an animal smuggling ring. Stabler eats tiger meat, a man is eaten by hyenas in his own house and the detectives callously make a joke about it and Captain Cragen gets to hug a monkey that was hidden inside a basketball.

SVU owns, is what I'm getting at.

As someone who never watched that show, could you explain here?

He's wrong, that scene was awesome.
I'm trying to remember exactly what happens, but Alan Shore (James Spader) accidentally takes a case where a black girl was denied the role of Annie from...Annie. Al Sharpton bursts in as the case almost ends as a favor for Denny Crane.

I couldn't find video but oh hey, here's the script part.

Judge Rita Sharpley: Sarah, that was magnificent. But the other little girl was quite good, too. And given the discretion that has to be allowed to producers in these situations...
Alan Shore: Your Honor, we have something called the Equal Protection Clause, we have something called the 14th Amendment-I believe it's actually required reading for judges. I could be wrong there.

Reverend Al Sharpton: Could I be heard, your Honor? I heard about this matter. I would like to address this court on what I consider...

Judge Rita Sharpley: I'm sorry, Reverend, but you have no standing here.

Reverend Al Sharpton: I have standing as an American citizen speaking up on a civil rights violation.

Judge Rita Sharpley: Reverend Sharpton, I will ask you to step down...

Reverend Al Sharpton: I have standing as Bobby Kennedy had standing,...

Judge Rita Sharpley: You have no standing in this meeting.

Reverend Al Sharpton:... on the steps of the courthouse in Alabama!

Judge Rita Sharpley: No one is denying this little girl an education, sir. She just can't play Annie.

Reverend Al Sharpton: You may think this is a small matter. But this is no small matter. This child is being denied the right to play an American icon because she doesn't match the description. Those descriptions were crafted 50 years ago! We're supposed to be in a different day!

Judge Rita Sharpley: Reverend...

Reverend Al Sharpton: You talk about racial equality, how we're making progress. The problem with that progress is it's always a day away. Tomorrow, tomorrow-you love that!-because it's always a day away. I'm here to stick out my chin today! Today! Give us an African-American Spider Man! Give us a black that can run faster than a speeding bullet and leap over tall buildings in a single bound! Not tomorrow-today! Today! The sun needs to come out today! Not tomorrow, your Honor! God Almighty! Give the American people a black Orphan Annie. It's just not good enough to say she doesn't look the part.
