Found this interesting. I never saw the updated version, but I am guessing I probably wouldn’t have noticed the change. Just a random article I came across thinking you might enjoy. Or not. If I die, tell my wife hello.

    Meh… I like it random. Although if chainsaw juggler is an acceptable substitute :-)

      I feel like chainsaw juggler is a better joke because it implies how bender came to be in possession of a severed arm. Like “why does he have a severed… oh… lol”

        It definitely wins the one line backstory contest.

        Don’t get me wrong, both are great jokes.

        I suppose I like the other because it’s the opposite. I don’t view it as random throw away, I think it implies that Bender has a lot of weird stuff going on… stuff that’s maybe better to not know about.

        He is only one spine short of a Mouseketeers reunion after all ;-)
