    a retort to: “that’s not possible” / “that’s impossible”

    “No. It’s necessary.”

    “In the future, if you’re wondering: ‘Crime. Boy, I don’t know,’ is when I decided to kick your ass."

    I often use this quote in jest to my partner when my wife is actively annoying me replacing [ Crime. Boy I don’t know ] with what ever joke they’ve just made at my expense.

            Yeah I loved eternity, but the bugs keep piling up to the point of annoyance. Very happy with Thunder these days. And Voyager is great too. Both open source and very actively developed.

          No it’s a rap battle between the MythBusters and The Ghostbusters so they’re referencing it.

              I must be too online lol because I thought there’s no way somebody doesn’t know Epic Rap Battles of history. Pretty sure they’re one of the biggest YouTube channels.

                My opinion of them is tainted, because growing up my older brother was a little too obsessed with the Vader vs. Hitler one. Like there’s no way it isn’t concerning that he could recite the whole thing from memory…

      So I remembered Adam Savage mentioning that he got the phrase from a friend, so I went hunting for the video. Anyone heard of a film called Dungeon Masters?:
