Pardon?

Actually, it's "hyphen."

Remember Emu's face, people; one day it's going to be on the news alongside a headline about blowing some landmark to smithereens, and then we can all sigh and say, "She was such a normal person".....
....We'd be lying though.

Oh holy fucking Christ.
What the bad monkey is referring to is that 2X4B-523P is Kryten's (Red Dwarf) model number. I swear to God I didn't know this until Googling the term.
Hyphenation seems to be optional, judging by the Google results.
Furthermore, never do that again.
Further and furthermore, did you actually know that off hand?

God, I knew using that title would come back to haunt me. I know it fucking sucked but the part of my mind that invents puns was on holiday at the time and I had to bring in a temp.
As I walked through the valley of the shadow of death, I realised that it could do with a lick of paint.

Right, I've worked out what's going on. Might help if I read the update titles...

I'm going to call his temp mind Dave.
Booze-fueled paragon of pointless cruelty and wanton sadism.

I have eight! 
Although, they're less of what you might call "temp minds," and more of what you could call "people in my head that I made up for whatever purposes, who have now developed minds of their own and do pretty much as they please with little to no regard for my sanity."
Actually, I don't know what the hell to call them.
...yeah, I know. I'm insane.

I don't have temp minds, instead I swap minds very often, that is I change character and everything atleast once per year... It makes it hard to meet people sometimes, especially when your current personality could be descriped as shy homicidal maniac wannabe, but thankfully I'm past that personality. Now I'm just a crazy oddball with no ethics at all.

My entire brain is run by a committee. However, the committee is made up of crack whores, murderers and idiots. Not helpful.

My mind is operated by a small, very confused child through a series of pulleys and levers.
