455 - All Poison In Moderation, My Heart Got A "D" This Semester, One Dose For A Permanent High, Triple The Development Hell, and It's Always The Apocalypse On Planet Californadeserta

[12:47 PM] Mr. Blue:
Guy in break area complaining that doctors tell him he can't have too much salt, but he can't have too little either.
Like.. that goes for everything bozo
"No ascorbic acid gave me scurvy, but a pound of it made my kidneys fail!  You can't win!!"
[12:50 PM]
Yup
"Found out everything life has to have to survive is toxic if you get too much of it.  WTF?"
[12:52 PM] Mr. Brown:
Dude, you should try drinking too much water!
LOL
Takes care of the salt problem!
[12:53 PM]
Heh
[12:53 PM] Mr. Blue:
That was a Norm MacDonald bit on Weekend Update
"Research now suggests that a glass of wine a day may be beneficial to your health.  That same research shows, however, that 2 glasses of wine a day is DEADLY POISON."
[audience doesn't respond] "So ahh y'know... watch your intake with the, uhh, wine there."
[12:54 PM] Mr. Brown:
He probably has high blood pressure
Doctor “You need to watch your salt.”
Sits staring at a salt shaker deep into the night, wondering when something will happen.
[12:55 PM] Mr. Blue:
Yet zero salt will kill you
[12:55 PM] Mr. Brown:
Yep
[12:55 PM]
Brian Regan, pantomiming eating breakfast while watching TV... News ad comes on.  "There's a food that can kill you, and you might be eating it right now!  Tune in at 6 for all the details!"  (stops with mouth open and spoon half raised).  
[12:55 PM] Mr. Blue:
lol
[12:55 PM]
"Could you...tell us now?  'Cause... (looks at spoon)"
[12:56 PM] Mr. Brown:
I love that stuff on the news
Something in your house could kill you right now...we'll tell you what tonight at 11!”
It's 10am, damn it! I can't survive till 11!



[1:33 PM]
Commercial on in the break room - "Heart Failure"
Disease of the Walking Dead?
It is basically a two word definition of “dead”.
If your heart actually fails, you don't keep going.
It needs a better name.
"Do you suffer from Heart Failure?  Trouble getting out of your pine box or off the slab at midnight?  Your mortician or local necromancer can help!"
"You may benefit from new Voodootrin UL."
[1:35 PM] Mr. Brown:
Heart WTF-YOU-DOIN'-TO-ME Condition
[1:37 PM]
"Our new gentle formula calls a motive anima from the netherworld to give new unlife to your failed heart."
(smiling active grandma type) "With my Heart Failure, I had no appetite, zero mobility, and negative brain function. Voodootrin UL couldn't fix my heart - because it failed - but now I've got a spring in my step and an insatiable taste for the flesh and souls of the living!"
[1:51 PM] Mr. Brown:
Heart Failing?
[1:54 PM]
"Voodootrin UL should not be taken by women who are pregnant, wishing to become pregnant, wishing to have a functioning heart, or anyone currently alive.  Common side effects include a 100% chance of causing the heart to fail."
Mr. Blue must be on a good case. I didn't expect him to let this game roll past
[2:00 PM] Mr. Blue:
I couldn't come up with anything
Just wasn't in my wheelhouse, I guess
[2:00 PM] Mr. Brown:
Voodootrin UL when taken with Corpsetrin XL may cause unwanted flesh loss. Tell your doctor immediately about symptoms of gut inflation or dripping lesions



[12:12 PM] Mr. Blue:
WPXI story on Facebook:
"GRAY DEATH" -- The synthetic drug that can kill on contact has arrived in our state.  A mother has been arrested for dealing it out of her home.
My friend just commented "Finally!"
I think he was just joking.
[12:12 PM]
:-D
[12:12 PM] Mr. Brown:
HAHAHA
[12:14 PM]
Get me in the queue for a recreational drug called Gray Death.
I missed out on "Executioner", "Brian Asphyxia" and "Lethal Neurotoxin Fun".
You know...as long as I was gonna fix the other typos in that line, I might have fixed Brian too. Yet...it's funny.
[12:16 PM] Mr. Blue:
"Gorilla Panic"
"Lasting Coma"
[12:22 PM] Mr. Brown:
Gorilla Coma
[12:24 PM]
"Voodootrin UL"
(Dealer) "Here you go.  Best high I've ever seen."
(Junky) "This is an empty syringe filled with air."
(Dealer) "10 bucks."
(Junky) "Only Ten?  And this won't cause an embolism?"
(Dealer) "Well...that's what it's called.  But nah, you'll be fine."
(Junky) "I'll take 3."
[12:30 PM] Mr. Brown:
So they're taking elephant tranquilizers mixed with other drugs? Wow. Big kick.
To death.
Take this - I call it Pink Elephant
Why do you call it that? Cute hallucinations?”
'cause your nose grows and you turn pink before you die.”
[12:35 PM] Mr. Blue:
Interesting strategy, killing your customer base.



[9:52 AM] Mr. Brown:
Triplets”
I would watch that just because
[9:54 AM]
Ugh
[9:55 AM] Mr. Blue:
The third brother is Eddie Murphy?
[9:55 AM] Mr. Brown:
I'm guessing so
They were messing with genetics
LOL
[10:06 AM]
(Project head to Danny and Arnold) "Well...the issue is that in early testing, your triplet was as funny as you two.  Funnier, even.  He seemed unstable, though, and was separated from the project for observation.  He...uh...well.  Let's just have him in and you can meet him yourself. This might be a bit of a shock."
[10:07 AM] Mr. Brown:
It would be interesting seeing how they write a triplet into the story, 'cause they could flub that hardcore.
[10:09 AM]
(One year later)
"The direct to video Eddie Murphy film will be titled "Quintuplets", and feature clip flashbacks of him embarrassing Danny and Arnold in “Triplets”. Eddie will be reprising his character from “Triplets”, as well as an obese brother and sassy sister."
"In Cringe-o-Vision"
[10:09 AM] Mr. Blue:
It would be better if it was a woman
Maybe Wanda Sykes or something
[10:10 AM]
Perhaps.
[10:10 AM] Mr. Brown:
She's short too.
Only one big baby
[10:10 AM]
And DeVito would still end up as the shortest, so that's OK.



[10:11 AM] Mr. Blue:
Remember that movie I always ask about where it's like, a train on Mars?
I found it

Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone”

[10:16 AM]
I recall seeing it.  And remembered the title and Molly Ringwald in it.
I've forgotten everything else entirely.
[10:17 AM] Mr. Blue:
I just always remember watching a movie as a kid that was on some Mars-like planet with a broken down train.
[10:19 AM]
Ah, sweet memories of youth.
Planet Californiadeserta”
People always settle where the water is, though you can hardly tell from these movies since they love putting them on Californiadeserta
Lot of movies from those decades are set on Californiadeserta
What if they were all plots taking place at the same time?
These are things I think about.
I'd ask your permission to explain, but you know I'd just ramble forward anyway
Thing is...planets and stuff are pretty big.
It was already something I wondered about and looked up – I found out that Mad Max inspired Escape from New York.
And I thought:
"All the post-apocalypse films could be happening over the course of a couple decades on Earth at the same time.  It's not like these people have or will EVER have contact with each other."
Conan the Barbarian could be post apocalypse.  Who'd know?
Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis, and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of.“ – Ok...Atlantis was in ancient times, so when was the rise of the sons of Aryas? 17000AD?
In fact, Oliver Stone's script for Conan the Barbarian WAS post apocalyptic.
Apparently he was high as a kite while working on it...
But most of it looks like it takes place on Californiadeserta.
[10:23 AM] Mr. Blue: 
Or, in that case, Iberiadeserta
It's always weird when whole planets have ONE ecosystem
Even back in the day, astronomers thought Venus was a swamp.
Like... the whole damn planet?
[10:25 AM]
Yes...the whole planet ecosystem is fun.  I mean some can make some sense.  
Hoth as an ice ball. 
Arrakis as a desert. 
But Endor?
An entire temperate planet?
Yavin 4 is implied to be entirely jungle
Naboo appears to be entirely groomed parkland
[10:26 AM] Mr. Blue:
Heh
[10:27 AM]
"We're lost!  Hundreds of miles from civilization!" 
"How do you know?"
"The topiary and ornamental plants ran out hours ago."
"Oh my GOD!  These are, like, wild growth bushes!"
"Yes!  Except for the trimmed lawn, we're in the wilderness!"
