What are you talking about SE? I have no idea where I want to put the emphasis on that sentence because your statement just about confused me to kingdom come.

Oh, well it made sense to me, Gemm.  You must be out of the loop.

Ok, first sentence: "My Duh! It's full of Stars!"

What? I mean, really. Where's the verb, the nouns, the adjectives and other things?

Next sentence: "ever feel like you're being teased AND being the plot for the coolest DC Comics summer crossover EVER? At the same TIME?!"

Ok, no idea at all. Summer crossover? Why would there be a summer crossover and not a "yearly crossover?" It's just totally nonsensical.

And that last sentence doesn't even need any looking at.

No, not THOSE rolls.

What, so your the submissive one and hes the dominatrix now?
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

No, it just means he referenced two things that you're not cool enough to understand.

Ok, I'll parse for you because you're stupid.

"My Duh!" -- Exclamatory remark
"It's" -- Contraction of "it is", it being the subject and is being the verb.
"full of stars" -- phrase acting as the direct object of the sentence, explaining what "IT" is.

And it's a quote from a very famous sci-fi movie, paraphased to add "duh", I assume, to avoid taking the name of God in vain.

In Gemm's defense, I was trying to figure out the 'duh' myself.  Perhaps I was too focused on my battle with Entropy--which, by the way, I'm winning.  Or, at least, I am winning as long as I control reality (which I do for the extent of this post.)

I project a lapse in power coming soon (like, as soon as Entropy posts a rebuttal....)

well, yeah, the Duh was both a reference that no one here would understand and a cover for not using the name of God in vain. But ti was hardly more obscure than what Gemm says.

I realize the retarded remark may have been too tough. I feel guilty about it, even though Gemm and I were chatting while I typed it and he knew i meant it in jest.

No, don't feel bad as it was amusing for me.  That makes it okay.  Except it was kind of harsh to impaired persons...

2001: A Space Odyssey.  I can never remember where it is in the movie, but in the book it's the last line that Dave speaks.
