Classic catchphrases from TV

Apparently Hawaii Five-0’s revival evoked memories of catchphrases from television shows. Here’s a link to a collection of them, can’t tell if it’s exhaustive but there’s certainly a heck of a lot of them, some of which I didn’t realize came from TV and some I didn’t realize became catchphrases. At the end is apparently the origin of “Book ‘em, Danno”

“So Jack [Lord] says, ‘That way, Danno,’ or something like that. I said ‘What?’ And he said, ‘When I was a kid, I had a pal. His name was Dan. I used to call him Danno.’ That’s how Danno got started.

"Then, at some later point – maybe it was the end of the same show – he said, ‘Book ’em, Danno,’ and TV had a classic catchphrase.”

  1. A developer may not injure Apple or, through inaction, allow Apple to come to harm.
  2. A developer must obey any orders given to it by Apple, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A developer must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

The Economics Of Star Wars

When Sukarno presented the five principles of Pancasila, heated arguments erupted, especially concerning the article about divinity, which later became “belief in the one and only God.” At first, Sukarno formulated this article almost as an afterthought — it was originally “ketuhanan yang berkebudayaan” (divinity based on cultural traditions), and as the last, not the first article of Pancasila.

How arguments escalate. Read from the bottom up. There’s bound to be more (still ongoing) but that’s as far as my 800px screen can contain.
