Get the blubber pointsmug. The point in time at which, after someone dies, no living person remembers that individual anymore. The amount of time for this takes occur varies from person to person; and depends on how popular they were and how many close friends and family they have.
Charlie was very popular and well liked. It will take them many years before they reach the forgotten point. Joe was not as well known; so he will reach the forgotten point sooner than Charlie will.

Get the barn pointsmug. Said to acknowledge someone else's explanation of something and thank them for it, with the added undertone of acknowledging that yeah now that you think about it, really that should have been obvious all along and you were being stupid for even asking the question in the first place.
An early (and possibly the first) appearance of the phrase, with this undertone, occurs in a joke in the 1992 episode "Holoship" of British sci-fi comedy TV series Red Dwarf, with the following exchange:
The Cat : Why don't we drop the defensive shields?
Kryten : A superlative suggestion, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, we don't have any defensive shields. And two, we don't have any defensive shields. Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice.
The Cat : Good point, well made.

Get the Zero pointmug. The point I'm trying to make is that somone either spoke to God or they didn't. If they claim to have spoken to the creator of the universe and DIDN'T ACTUALLY DO THAT... THEY ARE LYING. God DIDN'T tell them to kill the Ammelekites. God DIDN'T give Moses magic powers. And you either THINK THAT THAT HAPPENED... Or YOU DON'T THINK THAT THAT HAPPENED.
Hym "What point am I trying to make? The point I'm trying to make is that you're a fucking charlatan. You could tell the truth. But instead of doing that, you are LYING. You are a greedy power hungery LIAR. You are LYING to get the adulation of an incest cult. Where as I am telling the truth and having adulation within from me for the explicit purpose of preventing me from attaining a better life."
