T-Rex: It's hard to come up with new sayings, like "the early bird gets the worm"! I'VE TRIED. But I've noticed they all have one thing in common:

T-Rex: They're all really concise!

T-Rex: So I thought: what if I turned the process around backwards? That way all I need to do is come up with a catchy, concise phrase, and then we can decide on what deep truth it reveals later!
Dromiceiomimus: So what's your phrase?
T-Rex: Oh, I don't know: how about... "TCP/IP will guarantee delivery order?"

Utahraptor: Too boring and way too specific!
T-Rex: Yeah. Yeah, I can see that.

T-Rex: How about "The less-early bird gets fewer worms"?
Utahraptor: Too derivative!
T-Rex: "The late bird may get no worms at all! It depends on worm supply, however as worms may be late too, tardiness can be an advantageous strategy for a given bird."

T-Rex: "Further research and modelling is necessary. For more information, consult the Wikipedia article on 'adaptation'".
