Me too. The "Do Both" one is great.

I agree concerning the second block, but I can't say any of the first blocks grab me, though I am biased in favor of the first block I proposed. -- Pteryx

Standback's Simon-Says Block:

Morpheus: Ahh... But she didn't say "Simon Says," did she?
Standback's Let's-Do-Both Block:
Quote:
Agent Jones: Let's kill them in their ship.
Agent Smith: No, let's kill them in the Matrix!
Agent Brown: Guys, guys, calm down. Why don't we just go ahead and do both?
I'm voting the straight Standback ticket as well.

First block, this one:

Quote:
eo: Morpheus...I'm not...
Morpheus: The One? Of course you are, Alice.
Neo: Not Alice! Quit calling me that!
Morpheus: Fine by me... Julie.
Neo: Goddammit!
Almost a Dr. Cox moment there.

For the second block I vote for "Do both" as well.

Okay, I guess the 'Do both' block is decided, but I still like my 'we're not playing simon says' one for the first part

Hm...while I'm not above Scrubs jokes, I'll go with the majority. Simon Says Nr. 1 it is.

I believe it's decided:

Part 1

Quote:

Morpheus: Ahh... But she didn't say "Simon Says," did she?
and part 2

[quote"Standback"]
Agent Jones: Let's kill them in their ship.
Agent Smith: No, let's kill them in the Matrix!
Agent Brown: Guys, guys, calm down. Why don't we just go ahead and do both?[/quote]

Couldn't be better.

Shouldn't it be "Oracle says" instead of "Simon says" to fit with the earlier instances of the gag? -- Pteryx

Hmmm, probably. That might blur in with Neo's "The Oracle said" though and cause confusion. Might tweak Neo's line.
