Ted Quote #732
Robin: If you wanted to print out one of your lectures or something, I could read it on air. Coming from a more entertaining source, your students might actually pay attention and learn something.
Ted: Oh! You're entertaining? Last night there was three minutes of dead air while you sewed a button back on your sweater.
Robin: Look, just because your class likes me more than you...
Ted: You're a drinking game!
Robin: What?
Ted: That's why they watch. They made a drinking game out of you. Every time you say "but, um," they do a shot.
Robin: "But, um"?
Ted: Yeah.
Robin: I don't say "but, um." I have never said "but, um."
Ted: Well, then I guess it's not a very good drinking game, which would mean last night, when Barney and I played it, I didn't get super wasted and throw up all over myself. [laughing] Oh, wait! I did both of those things, so face!

Quote from Ted
Ted: These are just a few of the many contributions he made to architecture, and yet, he is only remembered for one thing. That, my friends, is the sad legacy of Gregorio Francetti Gazebo.
