I find that robot far less useful than my little floating turret of death.

When I first read this one as a kid, I did *not* get it. Had to have the “butler did it” thing explained to me. Hysterical.

True, but I hadn’t spent any Floating Turret of Death points, because I was splurging on FIRE AND BURNING and on having an explosive sniper rifle.

I want you to do this job all by your lonesome, Montag Not with kerosene and a match, but piecework, with a flamethrower.

I like ones that have a surprise twist. That being said, I also like the off-the-wall ones that leave you wondering where it came from.

Like “No, Zak. It Wilga’s turn lick bowl”.

The version of this one circulating the internet is missing the caption. Fortunately, I know it’s “and down here we keep Fluffy. We’re afraid he might have gone a little mad.”

yeah, you always got to be careful of a mad dog.....

I think Dr. F’s expression of embarassment in that one is what makes it.

With this one, Larson said his editor wanted to remove the droplets - a bit too graphic.

you can just about imagine the argument between them “what do you mean too graphic?......

That one’s hilarious because of all the ways that ten year old bad ideas are borne out. Billy just died -> tell grown up -> continue doing horribly dangerous thing.

Meanwhile, in “unwitting infliction of stark, unending, miserable terror”...

hey, remember when carter fell off the airplane steps over in what was that, china?......

I’m thinking “giant hideous insect in need of help” would be a good basis for a short story.

used to have a parrot, chickens too, was always fun watching them get worked up over some other critter. of course you eventually got to run off the scary critter before they go and have a heart attack. good stuff though........

can you imagine old man larson at the gas station, when someone said what he must have imagined was one of the dumbest things ever “but it could be in need of help”, and thought “man, thats just too dumb NOT to use”........
