Tim Quote #1219

Quote from Tim in What You See is What You Get

Tim: I had one of the computer guys at work help me with that program.
Jill: Oh, no.
Tim: Oh, come on, come on. Sit down. Let's see if I remember. This is us...
Jill: That's us?
Tim: That's us in 2446.
Jill: So we're, what, 400-some years old?
Tim: 450 years old. That's why we're not movin'. [Jill laughs] The point is, no matter how paunchy or wrinkly we get, we're still gonna be together and love each other.
Jill: So I guess that just proves that love is blind.
Tim: And there's good news. Our 425-year-old kids have finally left the house. So we can just sit around naked all day.
Jill: No, that is a pretty picture. Two wrinkled-up old prunes just lying around together.

Quote from Wilson

Tim: She had this computer simulation that showed some cosmetic surgeon's alterations to her body. It reminded me of when she was young, when I first met her. I kinda liked it. Then, like a bonehead, I asked what it would cost to overhaul her whole body.
Wilson: Whoa, major faux pas.
Tim: Major Faux Pas... Was he in the same campaign as General Wow?
Wilson: Tim, I'm not familiar with General Wow, but your situation reminds me of The Naked Ape. [Tim grunts] That is the one exactly, Tim. You see, The Naked Ape is a book which theorizes that men, like apes, are instinctively drawn to younger, more fertile women in order to propagate the species.
Tim: What's Mrs. Naked Ape attracted to?
Wilson: Well, unlike the male of the species, she instinct is be attracted to someone older and more experienced. Someone with more wisdom, sensitivity.
Tim: Wait a minute. What you're saying is if I explain to Jill it was just my instincts talking, I'd be off the hook.
Wilson: No, no, no, no, Tim. What I'm trying to say is you have to learn to understand your instincts, and then you won't be on the hook in the first place.
Tim: [grunts] Oh, yeah, sure.
