At the Non Sequitur Quarterfinals

College guy #1: Castaway is such a good movie… except why is it called Castaway? He wasn't cast away, he was just… lost.
College guy #2: Well, I guess he was kind of cast out of society because he was lost, you know?

College guy #2: Right. Hey, you know what's another really good movie? Nanook of the North. It has an igloo in it!
