There are way too many Pratchett quotes regarding stupid people for me to remember any specific one.

Go with greediness or horniness. You could use pretty much any Nanny Ogg quote for the second one, at least... :P

Bah. . . you can't sue me for false advertising. My whole title is "steverulestheworldoflowexpectations" but the last part got cut off. So, I have in fact, lived up to my name as your low expections were met. Now send me a dollar!

The extent of my latin knowledge is "res ipsaloquator" and "nullum gratuitum prandium".

I just wanted to point out that we do not, in fact, have the technology to blow up the moon.

We could do a hell of a resurface job tho.

We need this technology, and we need it by Monday. We need to defend ourselves against terrorists! How is that even possible with out the ability to blow up the moon?

You probably won't get any farther than the first "A" before some insipid superhero tries to stop you.

Blow the sucker up. We've been held under the sway of the moonpeoples long enough, what with their control of tides and werewolves!

The moonpeoples are terrorists, controlling a massive amounts of werewolf sleeper-cells. This cannot stand. We must utilize our full nuck-lear force against this threat.

All wee need to do is plant a large number of nuclear devices in a special pattern on the dark side of the moon and detonate them.

The special pattern would be designed so to make the resulting craters read out "Kick me!".

Then just wait for the next group of alien passersby with a fraternity level sense of humor and planet busting levels of technology and viola: Problems solved. All of them.

The only possible flaw in Operation Kick Me is if the aliens take it as a sign that's been tacked onto the Earth's proverbial backside.

What part of "ALL PROBLEMS SOLVED" did you not understand?

The original idea was for them to "kick" the Moon into the Earth.

Superheroes, while annoying, are not the real problem. The problem is blonde, spikey-haired pretty-boys. Damn them and their huge swords...

How does that relate to this...?
It'd get warm enough to fry the Earth, or something?
