There is no age limit. But there are height barriers

(When discussing bus passes.)




How old do you have to be to catch a bus?

That does sum them up

C - What are obituaries? 



D - Notifications about the dead. They print them in newspapers with a tiny biography.



C - Dead people adverts?

It's a hermaphrodite free area

I'm going to make new friends. They either have to be male or female.

It's a depressing outlook

(When watching Catchphrase - a gameshow where contestants look at animations and guess at what the catchphrase or quote is that they represent.)



C - When one door opens, another one closes!



M - No, it's the other way round.



C - Why?



M - Because it's about new opportunities.



C - Yeah. And doors closing are good.

They don't rhyme in English, either

(During the introduction to an episode of FMA: Brotherhood, a Japanese anime series.)



C - Do you think this song rhymes in Japanese?



M - Well, listen to it and see if it rhymes.



C - But this is the English version. We don't know how it sounds in Japanese.



D - But it's the same theme music.



C - But it would sound different to the Japanese.



D - Well, yes, because they know what it translates into.



C - Exactly. It might rhyme in Japanese.



M - I've been listening. This one doesn't rhyme.



C - But it might in Japanese!

Well, he is getting on a bit now

(When looking at a Where's Wally? picture - a large, complex image where you look for certain people and items. Note: In the UK "Where's Waldo?" is called "Where's Wally?")



Wally has a cane? How long has he been crippled for? When I was little he could walk.

Pretty much

Is fostering just legally kidnapping a child?

*Sniff* It's just so emotional. The way the smoke flowed between the blades of grass. It's so beautiful

What is tear gas? Does it make stuff get torn up?

Quote from a different flatmate

(An appeal advert comes on - no one is fully paying attention to it)



TV - Amena would ask you to save her life. But she can't.



D - Because she's dead.



M - Dude, that's harsh.



D - Huh? (Looks up). I thought it was an advert about donkeys. My bad.

That's speciesist

(When watching You've Been Framed - someone is poking a live scallop to make it snap shut)



C - Is that real?



D - Yes.



C - It's a living thing, right? How can a rock be alive?

It's funny because there were like, words in a structured way

D - (reading) "I'm pretty sure Community is one of the first sitcoms to pull off a complete twenty minute 8-bit episode. Then again, they're most likely the only sitcom to actually do this". M, can you think of any other series that have ever done that?



M - An episode in eight sections?



D - No, as in the old computer game style.



C - (Laughs until she weeps) I don't know what that means, but it sounded funny.
