Barack Obama's flippant reponse to Mitt Romney's complaint during their third televised debate (October 22, 2012) that the U.S. Navy had fewer battleships than at any time since 1917. Obama's remark that the military has fewer "horses and bayonets, too" makes an analogy that measuring battleships (as opposed to aircraft carriers) is an archaic metric of military power, in much the same way that measuring "horses and bayonets" would no longer indicate an army's might. (NB: Marines are still issued bayonets.)
"The Navy has fewer battleships than at any time since 1917."
"The military has fewer horses and bayonets, too. We live in a different world."

Get the Bazoner mug.Name commonly used to refer to Michael Bay's Transformers, to denote the fact that Michael Bay's Transformers and real Transformers have somewhere between very little and nothing at all to do with one another and are two separate and distinct properties. For example, the original Transformers were a fun and entertaining series of TV shows, comic books, toys and an animated movie that inspired imaginations with their distinct, colorful, and recognizable characters. Bayformers, on the other hand, is a massive pile of overproduced steaming shit full of poorly designed "characters" that are either indistinguishable CGI clusterfucks or underwritten human actors representing ridiculous and asinine cliches, neither of which you give a crap about.
"Do you like the Transformers movie?"
"Yes. Unless of course you mean Bayformers, which was 2 hours of heinous eyeball rape. But the real Transformers film made in '86 was good."
