"Activate the supersonic deccelarating contrarotating turbines vertically, we're getting a little too close to the Sun. Depress the aerothermic thermoreceptors! Accelerate the isothermal axio tractor beam value of parametres! Invert the compressor radio ratio. Energize the tandem of elerons vertically while I turn up this interplanetary microphone."
|
"The early attempts to construct a sufficiently robust spiral decommutator failed largely because of lack of appreciation of the large quasi-pietic stresses in the gremlin studs; the latter were specially designed to hold the roffit bars to the spamshaft. When, however, it was discovered that wending could be prevented by the simple addition of teeth to socket, almost perfect running was secured. —Description of the fictional Turboencabulator
|
Fry: Usually on the show, they came up with a complicated plan, then explained it with a simple analogy. —Futurama, "Where No Fan Has Gone Before"
|
Fighter: What you've got here is your basic system total failure. The upper support rig is three degrees out of nominal operation range. Just right out of it. Your L Beam is cracked in at least three places. I wouldn't attempt impulse speeds with that kind of damage. On the subject of propulsion, the anti matter regulator is coughing up a lung. If you have any interest in not being vaporized, don't switch it on till we can replace the unit. The entire GN/DN tube network is shot. |
Doctor: Looks like a spatio-temporal hyperlink. —Doctor Who, "The Girl in the Fireplace"
|
(Avoiding technobable) "It is my timey-wimey detector. It goes "ding" when there's stuff."
—The Doctor, Doctor Who, "Blink"
|
"No 'if'! I want a definitive answer, no more of your weaselly technobabble!"
|
Rayyan: Looks like a nasty sprain. —Little Mosque on the Prairie, "Swimming Upstream"
|
Technician 1: Ready to begin speaking in technobabble, sir. |
Character: Switch the system over to analog! |
And I say —Voltaire, "The USS Make Shit Up"
|
Yuki Nagato: A localized, non-corrosive amalgamation of asynchronous space is independently occurring in restricted condition mode. |
"Explain all that," said the Mock Turtle. |
Gwen: So what's that supposed to do? —Torchwood, "Day One"
|
"Some of us don't speak Star Trek."
|
Lucius Fox: I analysed your blood. Isolated the receptor compounds and the protein-based catalyst. |
Bob: You really can't fix it? |
"Okay, I didn't understand a word of it... so it must be scientifically accurate!" |
Fry: Bender?! What happened to you? —Futurama, "Overclockwise"
|
Nova: You're a worthy adversary, Misho. But even you could not anticipate that I would invert the photon charge of the deflector array... ... AGAIN. |
Attila the Hun: Stop! Don't shoot fire stick in space canoe! Cause explosive decompression! —Futurama, "Kif Gets Knocked Up a Notch"
