These we're all important questions and raises an important follow up.

When will the cornbread be ready?
- About 15 mins
  
  So about the same time the dog is coming back from dog heaven Deicide?
  
  dammit now i want cornbread and i'm out of buttermilk
As a dad, I should really end my answers with "next question" more often.
I love the reference to the fan remake of Robocop, where he goes around shooting rapists in the dick.

EDIT: Also relevant, considering our "democratically elected leaders who refuse to advance American interests."
Mm cornbread
- Ain't nothing wrong with that!
Boy, Doug didn't grow up to be very funny after all.
- At least he finally got some hair.
How much is the 6 million dollar dog, if we account for inflation
- In dog dollars or human dollars?
  
  The Six Million Dollar Man first aired in March, 1973.
  
  The online inflation calculator says that's equivalent to $43,732,794.46 in December, 2024 dollars.
  
  Now the question becomes does $1 human = $7 dog, or is it $1 dog = $7 human?
  
  And is it the 7 to 1 ratio so often associated with dogs and humans?
- Gotta be up there. Over 6 million at least if I had to guess.
  
  Math checks out.
Before reading this my personal theology was based mostly on defending everyone's right to ask big questions and feel uniquely uncomfortable with all available answers.

After reading this, it's still that, but amended with a supernatural certainty that non-Abrahamic Dog God can be killed by Robo-Dog.

- !ROBO-PUPPY MISTREATMENT ALERT!
Is this the plot of Dog Man?
- It is.
