#879 Lamp 'That was definitely not in my top three wishes.' 'Who said anything about YOUR wishes?'
#880 Headache I'm only willing to visit placid lakes, salt flats, and painting exhibits until the world's 3D technology improves.
#881 Probability My normal approach is useless here, too.
#882 Significant 'So, uh, we did the green study again and got no link. It was probably a--' 'RESEARCH CONFLICTED ON GREEN JELLY BEAN/ACNE LINK; MORE STUDY RECOMMENDED!'
#883 Pain Rating If it were a two or above I wouldn't be able to answer because it would mean a pause in the screaming.
#884 Rogers St. 'We can also use middle names in place of first pet's names, but yours is something incomprehensible about dropping tables.'
#885 Recycling And given how much of my stuff they go through, they definitely know where I live.

#888 Heaven If you've never had sex, this is what it feels like. Complete with the brief feeling of satisfaction, followed by ennui, followed by getting bored and trying to make it happen again.
#889 Turtles You're a turtle!
#890 Etymology For some reason, my childhood suspension of disbelief had no problem with the fact that this ancient galaxy is full of humans, but was derailed by language. There's no Asia OR Europe there, so where'd they get all the Indo-European roots?
#891 Movie Ages If you're 15 or younger, then just remember that it's nevertheless probably too late to be a child prodigy.
