Can I Be Cool, Too?

Published by Ree at 11:48 pm under The Meme that's not a meme

After a weekend with 24, 20 and Shortman and their general destruction of house and home, listening to hours of Rock Band and phone calls at 4 a.m. (Seriously, 20? I don’t care if you talk to your b.f.f. at three-fifty-fucking-seven, but the fact that I thought you were standing next to my pillow - when you were, in fact, down the hall and down the stairs? Don’t ask to move in with us. Unless we measure you for a muzzle first.) has made me think of a new twist on the Movie Trivia thingie-memie.

Cult teen movie quotes.

You know. Those movies where (if you’re my age) you go to the drive in with a car-full of munchies and a joint. If you’re my stepdaughter’s age, you go to the 30-screen theatre and smuggle in some Mike’s Hard Lemonade. So, read the quotes. Guess the movie. Have fun!

And if you want to come clean my living room? Let me know.

I can see it all now, this is gonna be just like last summer. You fell in love with that girl at the Fotomat, you bought forty dollars worth of fuckin’ film, and you never even talked to her. You don’t even own a camera. TxPoppet knows all about “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”.
~~He is the sweetest guy. Have you ever looked into his eyes? It was like the first time I heard the Beatles.~~ Heidi got this line from Superbad. Y’all? I started watching this with them Saturday night. At one point, Shortman mumbled, “This is kinda awkward.” I had already turned 17 shades of red by that time. I went to bed.
~~As you can see, Genghis greatly enjoys Twinkies because of the excellent sugar rush~~. Jen on the Edge got this one from “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure”.
Let me give you a little advice so you know. In times of economic uncertainty, never ever fuck with another man’s livelihood. Go have fun, now? You know fun, time of your life? Maybe if you follow that, I won’t have to come back here. Says Dizzy Miss Lizzy - “Yup, I remember #4. Risky Business” The Hotfessional says, “Yup” right back.
You think he’s funny? You think this is cute? You think he’s “bitchin,” is that it? Let me tell you something. Look at him - he’s a bum. You want to see something funny? You go visit John Bender in five years. You’ll see how goddamned funny he is. “The Breakfast Club” - care of Lacey Bean.
Not that I condone fascism, or any -ism for that matter. -Ism’s in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, “I don’t believe in The Beatles, I just believe in me.” Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I’d still have to bum rides off people. LolCats and Bukkits notwithstanding, Candy got this Ferris Bueller’s Day Off quote.
No longer will our penises remain flaccid and unused! From now on, we fight for every man out there who isn’t getting laid when he should be! This is our day! This is our time! And, by God, we’re not gonna let history condemn us to celibacy! We will make a stand! We will succeed! We will get laid! Another movie that I’ve never seen, but have heard is hilarious. “American Pie” as outed by Virginia.
~~Julie, get your white as death-chalky ass corpse in the car-now~~. Sister Honey Bunch was the first one to know that the chalk ass corpse was in “I Know What You Did Last Summer.”
Violet, that is so cute! Now lemme tell you about me. My name is Wendy and I first moved to New York when I was 21 to be a dancer, but I broke my big toe and then I got knocked up by this actor who dumped me to join the Peace Corps, so for the last 16 years I been raising my daughter all by myself and then two weeks ago, she tells me that she is a bisexual and that she hates me more than any person on this planet. And Alison gets “Coyote Ugly” - I love this movie - and would probably dance on a bar with enough vodka and limeade in me.
Don’t write this down, but I find Milton probably as boring as you find Milton. Mrs. Milton found him boring too. He’s a little bit long-winded, he doesn’t translate very well into our generation, and his jokes are terrible. From the absolute BEST National Lampoon movie ever. Dingo knew this was Donald Sutherland’s line in “Animal House”.

And for a bonus:

I want you to think of what you ate today. Got it? Now cut that in half, this is called a diet, people, everyone start one today! Darcy, you should stop eating. You see, when you skip a meal, your body feeds off its fat stores. And if you skip enough, maybe your body will eat your ass! Yay! Cupcake! Alright! “Bring It On” - Cheerleading angst at it’s finest.

Put your guesses in the comments!

I’m in your age group, but I think I was smoking too much and not paying attention to the movies through the haze.

But this post is cracking me up and I’m going to back to read the answers. I JUST watched the end of Ferris Bueller last week on cable… you can’t NOT watch that movie.

#10 Animal House! I took a Milton class last semester and I couldn’t help but think of this quote every Monday night as I was preparing for class the next day.
# Dingoon 10 Mar 2008 at 2:37 am

#10 Oh, and how old am I that when I mentioned this quote to my fellow Milton classmates, no one knew what I was talking about?

Yeah, not even gunna bother. The good ones are taken now anyway!

Your night sounds like my place on the weekends. But the main noise is mobiles (cells) ringing or incoming text sounds and bitching… man the bitchin! Makes my ears bleed.

#7 might be “Porky’s” and #10 might be “Back to School.” Or maybe “Dead Poets’ Society,” although the quote is a bit lighthearted for even the comic relief portions of DPS. And I might be so totally off base on my guesses that you will all laugh at me hysterically and point and make me feel like the biggest dork imaginable.

Dang, day late reading, but great lines!

Um, #9?

Ah, rumor has it a couple shots of Chambord will make one middle aged woman dance from one end of a bar top to the other not just once, but for an encore too!

I never get these movie quote things unless they’re Harry Potter or Star Wars. I live under a rock when it comes to movies or TV for the most part. There are usually precisely 3 shows at any given week that I watch on a regular basis. Lately though there is just one. 4 yr old is in his room watching SpongeBob. The only reason I even knew what it was is because he came running in here to tell me it was on. Doesn’t take much to get him excited. With any luck it will be on at least 12 more times today before he goes home.

Hmm. . . movie quotes.

Him: I-I should go.
Her: No… take off your pants.
Him: [beat] Pardon?
Her: [embarassed] I mean your sweater. There’s blood on it. I’ll wash it.
Him: Very domestic. There’s blood on your blouse as well.
