Mostly forgettable movie quote 10: “Ah, anything in this general area right in here. Anything below the stereo and on this side of the Bicentennial glasses. Anything between the ashtrays and the thimbles. Anything in this three inches. Right in here, this area, that includes the Chiclets but not the erasers.” (The Jerk)

Navin (Steve Martin) was explaining potential carnival prizes. Often misquoted as “between the chiclets and the erasers,” this can be used when describing where things are located. 

Mostly forgettable movie quote 8: “the mutants over at Table 9” (The Wedding Singer)

Use this quote from “Robbie Hart” (Adam Sandler) at any event where  you’re seated at Table 9 or any table that gets called last to the buffet. 

Ah, there they are!

 

Reference to Table 9 begins at about 00:58.

 

Gotta love urban dictionary! It even gives a new idea of how to use the expression! If you don’t know what “fugly” means, you can find it at urban dictionary too.

 

Gosh, I loved Mr. Rogers (Part Two)

And the second thing my kids associate with Mr. Rogers? It’s just…I…um…well, here it is:

Gosh, I loved Mr. Rogers (Part One)

I spent so much quality time with Mr. Rogers, but one of the two things my kids associate with him is this clip (from before my time?):

The 27 Days of Christmas: Day 2 (Gift ideas, compliments of Family Ties)

A cup of coffee
Beef jerky
A TV Guide (Are these still for sale?)
A 6-pack of cough syrup
“Bald No More” (Existence unknown)
Clean laundry

Classic!

Mostly forgettable TV quote (6): “Bread is the paper of the food industry. You write your sandwich on it.” (Dwight Schrute, The Office)

I am going to try to start saying this every time I get out a piece of bread. I’m sure it won’t annoy anyone!

I can’t stop “myself” from being misused by others, but I myself use it correctly by asking myself, “Is it just myself, or is it just me?”

Mostly forgettable movie quote 7: “But Charlie, don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted. . . He lived happily ever after.” (Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory)

No need to be careful what you wish for if you listen to Willy Wonka (played brilliantly by Gene Wilder in the 1971 movie).

Please watch this movie if you haven’t already! (Image: cloudfront.net)

Movie review #2: Vacation (2015)

It has nods to the idiotic iconic original, genuinely funny parts, and unnecessarily inappropriate moments. Most disturbing: I can’t get Seal’s “Kiss from a Rose” outta my head!

I like Ed Helms and Christina Applegate, so I may be overly forgiving. (Image: rottentomatoes.com)

 

Don’t you hate it when…, Issue 7

you have to be the adult when you still feel like a kid inside and could crack up at how serious and grown up you’re being?
