I explained to my wife that most men would rather have a vagina attached to a fish than a human torso attached to whatever a fish has down there.
How was your night on the sofa?
But having offspring is so much easier when she just lays her eggs and He deposits his seed over them.. 😭 lmao
My favourite bit is this one from a different episode:
Fry: What's the matter compressor?
Professor Farnsworth: Nothing's the matter, Fry, now that I've turbo-charged the matter compressor.
I've been quoting Farnsworth's "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" a lot lately.
I’m partial to the joke in this episode:
[Plunging the ship deep into the ocean]
“How many atmospheres of pressure can the ship take?”
“Well it’s a space ship, so somewhere between zero and one.”
One of my favorites was from Bender: "Oh, but you can, but you might have to 'metaphorically' make a deal with the 'devil'. And by 'devil', I mean Robot Devil, and by 'metaphorically', I mean get your coat."
I always think back to this one:
Leela: "that guy's turning this place into some sort of 'business'"
Professor: "this isn't a business, I've always thought of it more as a source of cheap labor ... like a family"
I don't know why I like it so much. I could see the punchline coming but how the exchange got there makes me smile every time.
Why does this dude always have crazy eyes? What's his deal?
When he meets real mermaids in the manga, isn't there one that looks exactly like this in the crowd?
Mermaid vs reverse-mermaid; a classic debate
We call them land-sea lions. I tame them.
Hail Atlanta!
Umbriel: This here's a volcanic vent. The water comes out at over 4000 degrees.
Fry: No Kidding....
Umbriel: Did it just get colder?
Good news! It's a suppository!
Yes. Stop asking.
I feel like Fry didn't try hard enough. There definitely still were options, avenues to explore. By running away he just outed himself for how vanilla he is in bed.

Fissy?
Reminds me of Red Dwarf:
Lister (or maybe it was Rimmer): That's a mermaid? Shouldn't it be a woman on top and fish on bottom?
Cat: No, that's the stupid way round!
Danny John-Jules absolutely crushed that role
Yes he did. I bet he's fun as hell to hang out with too.
