enterprise01 0 Posted March 13, 2007 OK, I'm intentionally trying to change the topic of this thread to movie quotes. My all-time favorite movie quote is this: "Print is dead." Hint: It's from a 1984 blockbuster comedy. Can anyone out there name the movie, the character who said it, and the character to whom it was directed? In my line of work, this quote is a particularly relevant comment. The focus of my job is to get attorneys to move away from paper and conduct all discovery in an electronic manner, so you can see why I love this quote. I say it to an attorney at least once a week.

Wheetsin 714 Posted March 13, 2007 Ooh, ooh! I know that one. Only because I'm a movie trivia buff, and because it's one of DH's favorite movies. The charater who says that, specifically, is one of his all-time favorites (DH is a wannabe scientist). And he says it to the lady. No names given b/c I don't want to ruin it for anyone else. Ok, favorite movie quotes. From one of my favorite 80s movies: "I think the students like it when I get down verbally." And from another movie: "...no one's gonna really be free until nerd persecution ends." And a great movie full of great quotes (hint - one of the actors is also an influential musician and shares their name with a food mentioned in the movie my first quote is from... yeah that helps, huh?): Who told you all this? My Daddy. Your Daddy's lying. None of this is going to happen. You know why? Because you're ugly. I'm sorry to say it, but you're an ugly little girl. Just ask anyone. My Daddy says that I'm pretty and when I grow up I'm going to be a beautiful lady. No. You're going to be an ugly lady. You'll probably be fat and work as a cashier and no one is going to want to marry you. You see, parents aren't allowed to tell the truth about certain things. Now don't cry. Don't be upset. I don't want to see you crying. You really want to be famous? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to see you crying. You really want to be famous? The middle one about nerd persecution is easy. It's also one of my favorite movies. Since lap-band surgery and the horrible burping associated with it, my boyfriend now brags to his friends that I could beat Booger in the belching contest. I'll have to think about the other 2. They are not coming to mind immediately. This has become a much more fun thread, don't you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enterprise01 0 Posted March 13, 2007 "A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava Beans and a nice Chianti." And he later cooked up Ray Liotta's brains and served them to him. Poor Clarice. I just about barfed watching that scene. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tired_Old_Man 1 Posted March 13, 2007 God answered your question about being a believer thousands of years ago when he sent his only Son, Jesus to die for your sins. I am a conservative Christian and I love homosexuals they are people just like us-the only thing is I hate the sin not the sinner. Trust me I am not perfect myself but when we ask Jesus to forgive us and truly mean it you are a new creation in Christ-his blood covers all of your and MY sins!! I am just wondering, What happened to Jesus during the missing thirty years? Did he get married as some claim? If he didn't get married, Was it because he was Gay? The Gospels say nothing about this time period. Was God a Conservative War Lord? Was Jesus a Liberal Peace-Maker? Questions. So many questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
