Look up the Triangle Waist Company. (Misnamed the company, fixed it) And made another one too.

Since I know my history, I will tear you a new one for that. :D

I made some other ones, but I only feel like posting this one right now. Don't ask why; I don't know.

Bzzzt.

Move the entire final clause to the third panel.

"I guess she..."

"Blinded you with science."

Emi is supposed to have "WITH SCIENCE" as the zinger. It's unexpected, and thus more humorous. Imagine her saying it in a declarative boom while pointing straight up.

The pun is the entire phrase "blinded you with science," because Lilly is blind. I know the song goes "WITH SCIENCE" heavily emphasized, but that doesn't make any sense as a joke, because that is not the focal point of the pun.

'Cept it _was_ the focal point, or at least seems to be. Whether or not you believe it humorous as such is your call, but I certainly thought it was written as intended when I read it.

Here's what's causing all the fuss. The format is usually
1. setup
2. setup
3. horribly lame disability joke
4. YEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHH
and the disability joke was in panel 2, not panel 3.

Also, this thread is epic.

Hmmm, if I was writing it myself I'd have put "Blinded you with science" in panel 3, but find the way it was done is still funny. Getting worried about a certain format is too much for me. It isn't like I'm trying to translate them to a foreign language or anything. :lol:

I can't believe no one ever thought of this, even though it's lame among the world of lames.
