Duck Dodgers/Fridge

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Fridge Brilliance

  • The opening theme for the Duck Dodgers series, specifically the first four lines. "Frozen in a time and space divide,/but how would the universe survive?/Duck Dodgers in the 24th and one-half century,/Defending the powerless and the weak." One would normally parse that with the punctuation I just used, making it a Bragging Theme Tune. OK, makes sense. But what if you move the question mark to the end of the fourth line? The third and fourth lines then become the object of "survive". In other words, now those same lines are asking, "How would the universe survive Duck Dodgers doing all that?" Considering who we're talking about here, it ends up being surprisingly appropriate. -Djkates
