For me, it's the mean-spirited replies to Fritzowl's plans, even more than FritzOwl's plans themselves.
(OK, maybe it's more like shaking my head ruefully)

As well as any discussion about any Cra_shit video.

Bandit's off topic threads are great for a laugh. They are like a stream-of-consciousness from his memories of like 1979, or somewhere in there, pulling out these incredibly specific pop culture references and usually turning them into a fart/pooing joke.

Gets me rolling every time. :-D

My favorite part is how he always queries the reader as to whether they, too, saw and could relate to this incredibly specific thing that he experienced. It's like:

"I was walking down the street on July 7, 1982, in Covington, Kentucky, and saw an advertisement poster for a dentist whose head was shaped like a Speak-n-Spell. His name was Dr. Ernie Burton, just like Bert and Ernie! Underneath his name, there was an Allowed Cloud of things you shouldn't do with your teeth. Anyway, I walked by again about four hours later and it was gone. Anyone else remember this?"

Just once I'd like to see someone earnestly reply with "Yes, Dr. Burton was my father-in-law and I have a hundred of those posters in my garage" or something.

Bond dangled, upside down, tied up, above a water-filled tank of ravenous creatures, each about the length of his forearm.

"They're called Sea Monkeys," said his captor. "Normally they're the size of a Cocoa Pebble. But if you treat them right, they can get pretty big. I feel bad, because I haven't fed them in a week. I plan to fix that."

They looked more like sea insects to Bond, beetling legs and claws thrashing in the water below him. Was he really to die in the Kentucky mountain lair of a supervillain no one had heard of?

"There was a Fruit Stripe commercial with Big Bird," his captor explained. "He was upset because the Hamburglar took all the banana ones." He paused. "You don't even remember."

"What are you talking about?"

"Life was better back then. Nixon was going to jail. We'd all watch Happy Days on Tuesday and talk about it at school on Wednesday. At the bottom of a box of Trix you'd get a chess set, where all the pieces were Super Friends, and you could wind them up."

None of this made any sense. "I grew up in Britain."

His captor sighed. "Oh, that bips." He pulled a comically large lever, and Bond plunged into the water.

Something about the screams was upsetting his stomach. Or maybe it was the Big Mac. He grabbed a copy of Dynamite! magazine and strolled into the bathroom.

"Pooing is cool."

They are bizarre. Maybe I will make threads like that in 40 years.

Speaking as someone roughly four decades senior to what your age is stated to be, I can't do off the wall stream of consciousness nearly as well as Karumi.

But to Bond, Kentucky has a lot to answer for!  First Goldfinger, and now Sea Monkeys!

Ignorant people. Not because they're ignorant, but because people who are so ignorant they're confidently incorrect and they can't be shown that they're ignorant.

Fox News was seen in a neighborhood near ours this weekend!!!!

"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.
