"So now you'd better stop, and rebuild all your ruins. For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing."

"She'll only come out at nights, the lean and hungry type."

Neither do I.

That's him. Randy Grainger was a kid on an episode of "the Odd Couple." The radar operators were from the Austin Powers movies. And so on.

Correct, just to make it official.

"It's close to Midnight, something evil's lurking in the dark."

MONSTER MASH!

I'll get back to this in a bit.

I'll get back to this in a bit.

Repeat after me- the next 2 movies never happened. The TV show was the sequel, and any movies after that. " I am Juan Sánchez Villalobos Ramírez, Chief metallurgist to King Charles V of Spain. And I'm at your service. " "Her father, Masamune, a genius, made this for me. "

(I just quoted this movie to Wordpup a day or so ago.) "Why is that toy on your head?" "Because if I wear it any place else, it chafes." "Kent put his name on his license plate." "My mother does that to my underwear." "Your mother puts license plates in your underwear? How do you sit?"

I'm almost surprised that worked. BTW, for those who forget, the seasons are mirrored in the hemispheres, so the Southern Hemisphere has Winter in July and Summer in January, and so on.

I see it more as a trigger word- but I'm not entirely sure that I SHOULD- thus the discussion. I had been thinking that it was a twi-original word, meant solely to slam non-twi Christians. It was first used no later than the 1789, long before twi existed, before vpw was born, and before Ohio was even a state (or New Knoxville established as a village.) Granted, much of the usage we come across is along those lines now. But, should we be using it in some other manner, and if so, how? I'm not trying to come up with some Rules with the force of Law, I'm trying to see if there's some practice, some rule of thumb, that should be in effect here that is NOT twi or ex-twi specific. As seen above, if nobody else, Edwin Paxton Hood (1852) used it in a way to make a positive point by contrast.

"You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, GodD*it! My life has VALUE!' So I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell, 'I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!' "

Obviously one I've never heard of. Even if I had multiple choice, I don't think I'd get it. "Equinox 42" or "Summer 42" or something like that (depending on where you are when Summer hits.)

"Red Dawn." (Another movie I didn't see.) The USSR invades, and the US and China have strong responses- with lots of casualties. (China may have lost 400 million casualties.)

Ok, taking a swing here.... "FLASH???"

Apples and oranges. Rocky, there was a legitimate point there- you didn't make a distinction between two things that can sound similar but are very different things. Please spell out the differences for those following along at home.

A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti."

Having never seen "South Pacific", that last one was the only one that I recognized immediately, To me, that's a practical definition for this thread- quotes that people who didn't see the movie can recognize. Moving on.....
