Somehow, Cornelius can accept the fact that Ray's car makes you like the Cure, but not that his necklace will make you chill even when listening to the Cure?  He is pretty selective about his beliefs.
By the way, hello.  I am new.

Trent Reznor exists. Trent Reznor is proven fact.

Ol' Corny has seen a lot of things in his day, he has been a good man in the wrong place at the wrong time. High magic and low #####s have been afoot for this dude. The point is not that it cannot happen, to The Cornster.

The point is that The Volvo is associated with Trent Reznor, a known quantity of depression on the Earth and... King Chochacho is clearly Usual Ray Bullcrap. A god that just kinda chills out and gives people luck? C-Money knows that gods don't work like this, even a minor god is not a frat boy.

Does this sound crazy? Of course it does. But such is belief.

I know people who would go to Catholic Mass nearly every day of the week because they were afraid a middle-eastern volcano deity from five-thousand-years-ago might send them to a place where they are tortured forever because they had a burger on a Friday once when they were twelve...

But if someone brings up UFOs, they'll look at them like a bug. Like a crazy bug.

And then there are people who believe that they have the souls of werewolves and they'll be able to shapeshift into one if they JUST masterbate to enough anime... who'll make fun of both of them, just for wanting an afterlife or for the universe to not be empty.

Do you dig?

In Cornelius Land, a space can absorb enough grief to feed it back to a dude... but a thing can't be made lucky by something that sounds like a Mardi-Gras float.

These are the distinctions we make in faith, based on the lives we've lived.

(Also, sometimes in cartoons you fudge some details to make a joke work.)

That was way more serious of a reply than I ever expected.
I think.
Well, I guess it's time to go buy a nose on Ebay.
