    Hello Warpslide,

    Tuesday September 21 2021 08:56, you wrote to me:

    LOL, consider this stolen.

    I have a tagline file of about 15,000 taglines I need to go through and remove duplicates and possibly offensive taglines (I was surprised at some I'd collected along the way in collections). When I get that done and sorted, I'll make it available. :D

    I started with my old '90s tagline file, added Brian Eno's "Oblique Strategies", added quotes from Westworld and Firefly and whatever I've
    picked up along the way. It might be time to load up the TAGLINES echo.

    He also said a line I have used frequently over the years..
    "I don't want to belong to any club that would have me as a member."

    That one can be slightly 'bent' to work in numerous situations.. B)

    I should probably pick up the TAGLINES echo.

    If you want, you can share your taglines ... maybe in the BBS echo in here?

    True.

    I've already scraped that site but I had about 80% of the taglines they

    Sean,

    https://www.taglinesgalore.com/

    I've already scraped that site but I had about 80% of the taglines they had.

    I looked at it, and some companion sites, and decided to keep what I had.
    The only time I post a bunch of messages is if I haven't logged into the BBS
    in several days.

    It could've been from Duck Soup...but I don't know.

    ... Baby boom: Noise made when an infant breaks the sound barrier.

    I heard of one video where the baby pooted, and it scared him so, that
    he started crying. :P

    The other cartoon was where this guy was sitting in a chair, but it
    looked like the back part of the chair had been hit by an explosion.
    It was...the guy pooted. His wife said "You can't blame that one on the
    dog!!" <G>
