About Orson[]
Orson demonstrates how toon physics differ from real life's physics. Twice in the episode segment "The Year Book Star", he interrupts at the most suspenseful parts.
Quotes[]
- "In real life, wishing upon a star would be fruitless, it would burn your wishes into cosmic dust; you'd be left with squadoo. However, in toon physics, wishing upon a star will get you whatever your heart desires, and the end result; pure-fire comic hi-jinks."
- "In real physics, helium would be needed to make a balloon rise. In Furrball's case, any old gas would do. For comedy's sake, a can of baked beans might have been funnier."
- "At this point, I thought we'd all take a moment to consider the meaning of life. I prefer to believe that all living things were descended from the Brussels sprout. How about you?"
- "At this point I thought it would be important to interrupt for interruption's sake. I get paid more for every line I say."
