Background Information

Memorable Quotes

"You were the one who made up this whole new world! You screwed up, not me!"
"Impossible! I am infallible!"
"I don't care what religion you are! You made things worse when you made them better! I mean, I liked having a lot of free time, but I hated not having anything to do. Don't you see, things were good when they were bad, and they got bad when they were good. People aren't happy unless they're unhappy."

Duckman and Professor Provenheim


"I know over two hundred ways to kill a man."
"You could glue an open jar of rats to his face. Then blowtorch the other side of the jar, so the rats have to eat their way out threw his face."
(beat) "Two Hundred and one."

Cornfed and Sheri


"You said you erased that!"
"Erased, ran off thousands of copies. It's such a fine line."

Sheri and Cornfed


"Yes, well once again I've outwitted a pitifully inadequate opponent by staying one step ahead of 'em. How exactly did I do that?"
