Here's a brief summary: the teens are amazed at how old and clunky you are the computer is, they boggle at the fact that Windows 95 doesn't support Wi-Fi, and at one point someone says "bless up" with just the right mix of sincerity and irony to make my head spin.

Tolkien wrote, "I do not think one need boggle at this spirit carrying off the One Ring, upon which his power of dominating minds now largely depended." Gil-galad and Elendil destroyed Sauron's physical form at the end of the Last Alliance, at the cost of their own lives. Elendil's son, Isildur, cut the Ring from Sauron's hand on the slopes of Mount Doom. Though counselled to destroy the Ring, he was swayed by its power and kept it "as weregild for my father, and my brother".

We have > definitely adopted the position at the Peace Conference of arguing in favour > of the retention of gas as a permanent method of warfare. It is sheer > affectation to lacerate a man with the poisonous fragment of a bursting > shell and to boggle at making his eyes water by means of lachrymatory [tear] > gas. I am strongly in favour of using poisoned gas against uncivilised > tribes.

Quine first observes that Carnap's starting point was not the strictest possible, as his "sense-datum language" included not only sense-events but also "the notations of logic, up through higher set theory... Empiricists there are who would boggle at such prodigality." Nonetheless, says Quine, Carnap showed great ingenuity in defining sensory concepts "which, but for his constructions, one would not have dreamed were definable on so slender a basis." However, even such admirable efforts left Carnap, by his own admission, far short of completing the whole project. Finally, Quine objects in principle to Carnap's proposed translation of statements like "quality q is at point-instant x;y;z;t" into his sense-datum language, because he does not define the connective "is at".
