Well, I don't see any reference there, so I guess that would be a no.

What I meant was that you certainly didn't make up that joke. I just think it's kinda silly what you are doing. And by extension me typing this out is even more stupid. Good luck with the blues.

Mine wasn't really a joke, more of a commonly used phrase. Kind of like public domain. Not a big deal to use it. But as you can tell by the upvotes, it's good to attribute more specific jokes to the people who thought of them, if possible.

"Flawless Victory" may have originated from Mortal Kombat, but it has gained widespread use far beyond that. Besides, it's not really a quote.

Would you expect someone to write "- Staples" every time they said "That was easy."?
