Brain: "What we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world!"

Ahhh yes...that fits Thing 1 quite nicely.
He has a shirt that says, "Keep smiling; I'm going to be your boss someday."

Tink - where can I get that t-shirt!!
OK, so as long as we're on the topic of our kids - fun geek story:
My 8 year old son's favorite TV show: "Iron Chef America"
2nd favorite TV show: "Alton Brown's Good Eats"
3rd favorite TV show: Bobby Flay's cooking smackdown
At dinner with a friends son, the two kids were sitting at the end of the table in the restaurant discussing the merits of Rios vs. Flay on Iron Chef. Which one REALLY had the better presentation & why Flay could have spiffed up his cuisine a bit more. It was like a little junior cuisinary Roper & Ebert.
This went on for 30 minutes while both boys ate split pea soup & E. was enjoying a nice smoked trout.

That is hysterical!! My munchkin, whom I refer to as my little Sous Chef, loves Emeril ... but also loves Alton Brown (also referred to as "The Corn Guy" because he did a show on corn the first time he watched), and he also loves Iron Chef.
Although I have to wonder about his fascination because he doesn't seem overly experimental about trying new foods. He's still into PB&Js, mac-n-cheese, plain this and plain that.

The Things tried escargot for the first time on the cruise. They love it!

I think it's suppose to mean they are being obtuse.
It's a Christian insult.
Ned Flanders is a Christian character on the Simpsons, and he is a stereotypical caricature of how the world views Christian fundamentalism. It reinforces the general view that Christians are stupid and simplistic and closed-minded.

Oh you mean that's not how we're really supposed to be.
Fiddle.
I've goofed.

I'll admit to being stupid, but I'm certainly NOT going to admit to being simplistic.

Really? I don't remember you ever using it (I can only think of a few that do) but for some reason I thought you were young and "with it", and knew all sorts of lingo. I really don't have any idea why I thought that though.
I wasn't "with it" when I was young. Now I'm old as dirt and still a dork.
And THIS is why I love you!
