we love it because it makes you think slightly differently about the concepts at play than you usually do.
conventional:
"all your bases belong to us"
- every single one of a discrete quantity of bases
- we control them all
unconventional:
"all your base are belong to us"
- all of the amorphous base-stuff you have
- all this base-stuff exhibits the characteristic of "belong to us"
- things that exhibit "belong to us" are thereby under our control
