And for a tidbit from the internet (which may or may not be true):
The phrase revenge is a dish best served cold finds its origins in the mid 1800’s from a text written by Eugene Sue called Memoirs of Matilda which was written in French and when directly translated actually reads revenge is good when eaten cold.
It should actually be spelled “just deserts” (though it’s still pronounced like “desserts”). This is from an older definition of “desert” meaning “that which is deserved”.

Brewster is a ‘smart goof’ in the tradition of Gilligan, Bullwinkle, Ernie and Larry the Cucumber. Usually good for a few zingers.

You can pick your nose. You can pick your friends. You can’t pick your friend’s nose. How about enemies? Can you pick their noses?

This was reminiscent of the “onion” scene in the first Shrek movie.

I love my ice cream, but only after its been softened in a microwave. Eight seconds is usually about right.

Brewster drives his nemesis up a wall. Maybe he’s not as clueless as he lets on.

We all need better enemies. That way we can get together as friends.
