  1. It wasn't Rush Hour. It WAS a white man. In fact, it was the kind of guy that sends in jokes to Reader's Digest.
  2. The Road to Wellville Matthew Broderick Ferris Buehler's Day Off
  3. I'm not sure we did it that recently. We have done it before.
  4. "Sudden Impact"? We're probably talking either Charles Bronson or Clint Eastwood, I think. (I could be way off.)
  5. Human, read down all the posts in the page, it wasn't exactly a typo.
  6. "You are in more dire need of a blowjob than any white man in history."
  7. "4 census takers once tried to test me. I ate their livers with some fava beans and a nice Chianti." Ok, seriously, I'll post something else.
  8. "A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti."
  9. "Take a little trip, take a little trip, take a little trip and see. Take a little trip, take a little trip, take a little trip with me."
  10. "It's amusing that the roast beef is the same price as an Oldsmobile." "I love you too... Rosenthal." "A man should be treated better than his luggage." "Yeah, well, my luggage was sucked out the door. Luckily my radio is frozen to my wrist." "You're a phony. You're a phony. Yes, you are! And you know what, you can't even sing. Your voice was dubbed." "What are you doing here?" "A very brief cameo." "Me too." "Maybe we could jump PARTWAY."
  11. Meat Loaf. "I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)."
  12. DG is a LOT more famous for that line, but I agree Warren Oates said that line slipping out of the vehicle. He kind-of muttered it to himself, which means a lot of people may not remember it. Is the current one "A FEW GOOD MEN"?
  13. Hm. Used to watch "Yellow Submarine" on Thanksgiving when I was younger. I've since shifted that to a different day. Maybe we should consider adding this one to the mix, although I have enough trouble squeezing in "Alice's Restaurant Massacree" every year as it is.
  14. Raf clears the table! (Been practicing billiards lately?) A) 1605 was the last time- before JP1- that there were 3 different Popes in the same calendar year. It has to coincide with the conclaves agreeing in a few months on the next pope, and a pope dying after a short term in office. So, one pope dies, the conclave selects the next pope quickly, who also dies, and the conclave picks his successor quickly. So, in one calendar year, that happened with JP1 but hadn't happened for the previous 450 or so years. B) JP1 picked two names- John and Paul, which was unique in papal history. First time ever. C) JP1 called himself "the First" rather than simply "Pope John Paul", and that also was a first. D) 3 previous popes had officially been poped and had died shorter into their terms than he did, but since those weren't recent, a lot of conspiracy theories popped up.
  15. "Parker Lewis Can't Lose" (later known as "Parker Lewis") was pretty funny, and it was largely self-referential humor. A number of times we saw Parker and his friends planning. "Synchronize Swatches!" *everybody brings their wrists in with watches showing and a swoosh sound* One episode, we saw their Dads planning. "Synchronize Bulovas!" *same action, same sound effect, different watches* I thought the best joke was an in-house ad for the show that had the cast dancing around to music, until one interrupted, shouted that this wasn't 90210, and to get on with their business (or whatever.) As the cast dispersed, Luke Perry (90210) was easily spotted in the group leaving, complete with being given a dirty look, and him looking exasperated as he walked out.
