dividing by zero

I just heard someone say it’s impossible to divide by zero.  They were talking about how it makes a computer program crash (or even a whole OS in older versions of Windows).  We should figure out how to divide by zero.  It might be part of the secret of the universe.  I remember hearing someone say, “Black holes are where God divided by zero.”  Perhaps they’re on to something…  Maybe that’s the key to unlocking the mysteries of the space-time fabric…  Maybe then we can figure out time travel…

I know, someone out there is saying it’s impossible.  But they’re only saying that because no one has ever been able to figure it out before.  🙂  But some of us are able to think things that have never been thunk before…  (peruse this blog for evidence)

the #1 humor website

Today a consortium of important humor experts met and voted on the best humor website on the Internet.  And guess what — we won!  So now it’s official — we are #1.  We just need more people to know we’re #1.  So go tell all your friends.

(In the interest of full disclosure, not all humor experts were available to meet at this consortium, and perhaps some didn’t even know of the meeting.  But this approach worked among astronomers when voting Pluto out of planet status, so it stands to reason that our consortium’s vote be taken as official, despite missing a few members.)

I know, some of you might not have heard of Buffet o’ Blog until now, but now you know, and knowing is half the battle.  Here you’ll find lots of funny randomness and humor and jokes, and over 95% of our content is original and exclusive to Buffet o’ Blog.  So spread the word, and let everyone know about the random goodness here.  By helping other people laugh, you are making the world a better place.  And who doesn’t want that?

post-Halloween videos

Halloween has come and gone, so to conclude the Halloween “season”, I present a couple of videos you might enjoy.  The first one is a blonde woman explaining how Halloween costumes are dangerous.  Be glad she’s not your mom!

The second video is a Transformer-like costume, where it actually transforms from a robot to a car.  There are links to other ones on the page, but this is the best one I saw of them.

quotes from cartoons, pt. 1

Greetings, citizen…

Today’s post is dedicated to cartoons.  Chances are if you enjoy this site, you enjoy cartoons.  And likewise, counter-clockwise, and conversely, too — if you enjoy watching cartoons, you probably enjoy the randomness that is this site.  If you don’t like cartoons, then you might be lacking a healthy sense of humor.  (But we won’t hold that against you… just start watching cartoons before it’s too late.)

Today’s tribute will consist of quotes from cartoons.  Our resident quotesmith has served up a very assorted batch of great quotes from cartoons.  Some of these may make you laugh directly, while others may lead you into good memories of great cartoons.  Either way, sit back and enjoy.  (BTW, if you can remember the particular episode or instance of any of these, you get extra coolness points.)  (Also, if you say these outloud and in-character, it’s even more fun!)

You know, evil comes in many forms, be it a man-eating cow or Joseph Stalin.  But you can’t let the package hide the pudding.  Evil is just plain bad!  You don’t cotton to it!  You gotta smack it on the nose with the rolled up newspaper of goodness!  Bad dog!  Bad dog! ~ The Tick

There’s so many that I will have to break this up into multiple posts.  So stay tuned for more cartoony goodness.  In the meantime, feel free to share your memories and opinions in the comments section.
