Re: Badges?
And, of course, it has been parodied.
In Weird Al's movie, UHF ("Drink from the fire hose! Drink from the fire hose!"), they featured a guy who was trying to each non-flying animals to fly by throwing them out of the second-floor window of his house. The delivery guy pulls up with cages of the next batch of animals for this experiment and reads off the list of animals he's delivering, including some badgers. "Badgers? Badgers??? We don't need not stinkin' badgers!" That scene is on YouTube, eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKIAn2UlAX4 and a more complete treatment at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb8C7dxTGRM.

Interesting thing about that movie. When he's trying to log off at the end of the day on Friday to avoid being asked to come in to work on Saturday, the shutdown display was MS-DOS while the computer display was a Mac.
