OK, the point is to respond with a statement that makes no sense at all. I'll start(duh):

Don't you think waiters put to many pants in the phone booths?

Act your age, not your I.Q. Wait, what''s the difference?

That's about as funny as a screen door on a battleship.

Have a nice "trip"! See you next "winter"!

Hold your jets! (quote from my mom)

It's déjà vu all over again!

I could care less.

---Ah...gotta love those classic malapropian (I LOVE that word! ^_^) phrases... Tell me if you can see what's wrong with each...

Yeah, but you respond by making up a stupid sentence, like, ummm, "It depends on how big the pickle is compared to the uncle's cough drops".

That's about as stupid as a screen door on a battleship.

Have a nice "trip"! See you next "fall"!

Cool your jets!

It's déjà vu all over again! Redundant

I couldn't care less.

Umm...Markio, there's a similar topic called "Mario Nonsense" in the story boards.

To be different from Mario Nonsense, I decided to use malapropisms instead of randomness. Malapropisms are funny! Tee hee! ^_^ ...And they fit as "stupid responses," so nya! ;P

One country I'd like to visit is Africa.

Yes, you're correct, Dr. Mario. Except you practically just repeated what I said about the screen door...so that's wrong...

Oh, and the "Hold your jets" thing is a malapropism (sorry I keep using that word, but I really LOVE it!) of "Cool your jets," as you said, and also "Hold your horses." ;P

You are different, just like everybody else.

Act your age, not your I.Q. Wait, what''s the difference?

Allright here's some more stupid responces:
-I'd rather eat cheese
-Why are we here anyway?
-Umm... I forgot
-Not that I'm stupid, but I'm stupid

This commemorates my 800th post!

I'll give 100 points to whoever can tell me where the word "malapropism" came from.

There. That should settle down those anti-math phreaks.

mal-a-prop-ism n. 1. a confused use of words in which an appropriate word is replaced by one with a similar sound, but ludicrously inappropriate meaning [1840-50; after Mrs. Malaprop a character in Sheridan's The Rivals (1775)]
