    Is that an invasion by interdimensional ferrets or an invasion of normal 3D ferrets traveling interdimensionally?

    3D ferret invasions are bad enough (as I learned the hard way). Now you have invoked the dreaded hyperferrets. Only by hiding in a tesseract will we be safe.

    I knew a Tess Eract. I think she still owes me money I loaned her for Ferret Chow.

    The Tesser Act, passed by the New York legislature in 2005, finally legalized construction of four-dimensional play structures for ferrets.
    So many bugs, so little time.

    Ferrets have never been limited to four degrees of freedom, nor do they need to attend universities.

    I should be safe now, I built a crooked house. Fortunately it's not in an earthquake zone, but does anyone happen to know how a tornado would affect an unfolded tesseract?

    It could be bad. You may find yourself in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike. If you do, just remember xyzzy.

    Ferrets like twisty passages. Their favorite is from the Book of Jobless 3:16 and 7/8.

    And the xyzzy ferret stood before the Lord and tailored his speech to Him, saying Hi, are you busy on Saturday? I'm moving and I need some help packing. And the Lord spoke, saying Yea, I shall be thy beacon in the wilderness, but I'm busy all weekend, maybe Marduk or Osiris can help you out, for they honor not the Sabbath. And the ferret did call upon Marduk, who owned a pickup truck with a towing hitch, and much packing of household goods into boxes was done, and the moving of them as well, and it was good.
    Amen, brother ferret, amen.

    Are Gummi Bears a type of toothless bears?

    Yes, it's a pity poor Doctor Mi had to die to discover how dangerous they truly are. A moment of silence for the good doctor.

    "Apas Nay Gu May Medrreedzia" means "Dangerous Gummy Bear" in Russian, and if the Russians have a word for it you can bet that it is indeed a dangerous gummy bear.

    In the Latin it is Ursus Periculosum GUMMINOSUS

    Do people want diddley-squat or not? You'll hear someone say "I don't have diddley-squat" and it certains sounds like they want some. But then, you'll hear someone say "I have diddley-squat" and they don't sound too happy about it. Which is it?

    No they want round tuits. People are always ferreting about saying "I can't get a round tuit."

    "Get a hammer tuit" is the motto of the Birmingham ferret plumbers society who meet every year for a bash, but they are round the bend.
