Due to the Internet, life has changed. I don't know exactly when I first began to realize that all the good thoughts had already been thunk up, but with the web it is waaaay too easy to prove.
For example, I was just thinking about how funny bananas are. I wasn't even alluding to May West type wit; it's just they are a really strange fruit (with a lot of potassium, I might add).
So, all I did was enter b-a-n-a-n-a and q-u-o-t-e-s into my browser and page after page of humorous quips emerged. Damn, there're even directories of banana quotes! Sigh. I see there's little reason to spend any time thinking up something funny.
