 * 01/03/2003, And Then There Was None


 * Ethan: See, you're cute. You can't be a cute girl and play video games. This would tear the fabric of the universe.

 * 02/25/2004, Down in Flames


 * Casey Collins: Girls aren't objects. They're people too. Treat them as such. Because remember - It's pretty fucking hard to play video games with broken thumbs!


 * 03/20/2004, Functional Thumbs


 * Lucas: You have an incredible ability to make me feel remarkably less self-conscious about my own geekiness.

 * Lilah: I'm going to die at the hands of an X-Box.. how embarrassing.


 * 07/11/2005, I Blend Stuff

 * Zeke: Relax, I'm not going to squash your skull with a single hand or anything like that.


 * 07/08/2006, Full Speed Ahead!

 * Ethan: Books are only for deaf and blind people that can't enjoy movies.


 * 11/11/2006, Digital Rules

2008

 * Home Depot Employee: Yep, I've got just what you're looking for. This is our Colombian Drug Lord series of balcony railings and window frames. They all come equipped with stylish tie-hooks for easy access should you, your family, or a raiding law enforcement agency want to rappel down to a lower level instead of using the stairs. No villa hideout should be without them!


 * 03/21/2008, They Come From Somewhere...


 * Zeke: This is all backwards. Humans are supposed to be my bitches.


 * 07/02/2008, Silent Treatment

2009

 * Ethan: This is five liters, man. That's like a hundred of our American gallons.

 * Mickey: I've never sarcasmed someone into a coma before, but I'm up for the challenge.
 * 04/13/2009, That's Fair
