      With that hat he does look a bit like an older, madder version of Luffy…

    This storyline is clearly a blatant attempt by Jeff to make Bicyclepunk the new Steampunk.

      I’mo go for “Cyclepunk” Because people will mishear and get confused when I talk about it, so I can feel superior. Or maybe “Cyclepump.”

        And you also don’t leave out tricycles.

      Among mad scientists, any non-Mad in the vicinity of another Mad is assumed to be either their henchperson or an experiment waiting to happen.

      Maybe he let the sound of his own wheels drive him crazy.

    We’re ignoring the important question – what kind of cheese?

      “Watch BalsaFeta burn!”

        What cheese is purple?

          Feta cheese that has just been brundleflied out of balsa, and has caught fire?

    How did he tell it was cheese? Even if it has holes in it, a la stereotypical cheese, it could be a kind of sponge.

      Pungent odor

        That could be some kind of predatory organism using the smell of cheese as a lure. Makes much more sense than it being cheese, considering both the context of mad scientific laboratories (having creatures feed on those looking for midnight snacks is traditional!), and the fact that cheese is complex enough that precisely that structure being created is extremely unlikely.

          The fact that it makes less sense makes it much more likely to be true.

    *cue video camera and…action*

    How does Brundlecheese eat? Well, he found out the hard and painful way that he eats very much the way cheese eats; in that it doesn’t. His teeth are now useless, because although he can chew up solid food, he can’t digest them. Solid food hurts. So like a cheese, Brundlecheese simply lies down on other food in order to enhance it. He is food, ready to be enjoyed with wine. Ready for a demonstration, kids? Here goes…

    Actually, purple cheese would have a very pungent and recognizable odor, if it’s on fire. According to Google, Purple Cheese is the name for a potent variety of medical marijuana.
    I do have a problem with his definition of “perfectly safe” as “being in one piece upon arrival.” If you run a mouse through a blender and then freeze the results, it is, in fact, one piece, but it wasn’t that way through the intermediate stages, and certainly won’t be much good as a mouse from that point on.

    But the teleporter is perfectly safe. See? It’s intact and it works as well as it ever did. It’s the things it teleports that don’t fare so well.

    Bad news: the teleporter is out.

    Good news: they now have a way to have fun for hours on end feeding different materials into it.

    Tip only protests lightly because the recumbent does give him the opportunity to show off his legs and kicky boots. “Perhaps we should try something else…”

    Changed colour, on fire, but mostly still a wooden block. Looks like they’ll have to just send Unity. Unless someone else has a bright idea. Or maybe a functioning brain dispenser.
