So many scenes were hilarious.

I've always loved the look on the Secretary of Education's face.

Every part of this movie is funny. Some that haven't been mentioned yet -
The high intelligence couple saying why they haven't had kids - The guy dies of a stroke trying to provide a sample but she still has her fingers crossed.
The woman trying to buy fries when the Carl Jr. machine rips her off, then declares her a unfit mom, then knocks her out saying her kids are the property of Carl Jr.'s
Frito on his way to video the plants growing stopping for "Starbucks" on the way.
When Joe finally gets up from his desk at the army base, the guy that replaces him is pretty much his clone and starts goofing off immediately
The talk between Joe and Rita where he explains he's always admired people who can do "a little of this.. a little of that" for a living.
Frito meeting the "Ow my balls" guy - "I've always admired your work" then slamming his nads.
The ass movie winning the Academy Award for best screenplay.
It goes on and on. -

So many good parts but my favorite was the announcer when he said "uhhh, we appear to be, experimenting some techmological differences"
I busted a gut at that part.

That bit didn't make much sense to me, though.
I mean, if the inflation is so bad that you have to spend 20 billion just to get on a ride - how much would that be converted to today's currency?
(I have no idea how much such rides cost in the 'real world')
But let's say it's 20 bucks for the sake of simplicity.
So, this guy gets all excited because of 80 bucks worth of currency? Would YOU endanger your life and take some fugitive on a long ride for mere 80 bucks?
And how plausible is it that this guy goes through time and opens a savings account and the interest accumulates for 500 years without the bank closing the account first (like anyone's going to believe that the guy is alive that long), AND going through all that trouble, the whole thing will only accumulate to 80 mere billion (80 bucks worth)?
I mean, couldn't he at least use a more plausible scheme, like, going back a couple of weeks/months to use the lottery numbers to win a lottery, or something? That would probably get them sextillions of money, or whatever 'millions worth' would be.
But no, 500 years old savings account and 80 bucks.. somehow seems like a very tiny sum for all that trouble and such an unsure gamble.
All that for the sum that allows you to go on a boring, unpopular ride four times. Something's not right, here. Why didn't he add a little more zeroes to the number, while he was lying anyway? I mean, HE is not supposed to be dumb! -

That got me thinking. What inflation rate would you need in order for $20 to become $20 billion in 500 years time? Turns out to be a little over 4.2% if compounded annually, which is not completely ridiculous. Makes me wonder if they actually did a similar calculation to come to the billion-dollar amounts in the movie. -

Actually, I liked when Officer Collins summarized his infiltration and embracement of Upgrayedd's lifestyle. His in-depth discussion and several slides included in his presentation. "A pimp's love is very different from that of a square."
