1. There is a huge difference between “I took her to see ‘PotC’” and “Upon her request, I took her to see ‘PotC’”. I’m sure many would adjust their opinions with your clarifications.
2. Thank you for the proper use of “I couldn’t have cared less.”

Cheers!

You are SO going to Hell for that one. 😉  
Remember - Jesus loves you, but He likes me best. 😛

Thank you, **Casey** and **Munch**.

And for the record, I wasn’t posting “just to make fun of her”. Everyone has said something that they later realized was silly or stupid. But that doesn’t mean you get to avoid ridicule when you do it. I always get a laugh when I tell people this one, so I felt like sharing it. I’ll probably tease her about it much more in the future. I mean… c’mon! The guy is supposed to be the Son of God… of course there’s going to be some supernatural stuff in the movie!! What could you possibly have been expecting!?

As for the mood after the movie, it wasn’t an issue. We talked about different scenes for a little and then went back to her place. ; ) I am not religious, so it did not have a very overwelming emotional effect on me. Id talk a about it more, but I’d like to keep this in MPSIMS and not Cafe Society, so I won’t talk too much about how I felt about the movie.

Anyway… on with the lame puns : D

I can only think of two reasons for what she said. Either she’s being sarcastic, which definately makes her a keeper, or she really didn’t know that the movie was about a major plot element in a fairly popular religion, which means that she lives in a cave on Mars. 😛

I’ve heard that saying used by several people…funny thing is, they’ve all been murdered.

Anyway, is that phrase famous?

I saw it on a t-shirt in a catalog and thought it was funny. I was just being a smart-ass. Sort of like when kids say “Mom likes me best” to their siblings.

Remember that old Sunday School song? The one about the bear? The bear named Gladly? He was cross-eyed?

Somehow, this doesn’t strike me as such a hot idea either.

Oh man, you were smokin’.

HA! Was it the bunny rabbit one? There was a chick wearing a bunny outfit and me just wearing bunny ears. LOL.  
It’s like that new movie EuroTrip, when he finds out his German pinpal is the hott chick in the picture, not the dude.

I swear, I start one thread about how bad my period hurts and everyone thinks I’m a chick. I don’t get it!

All I said was “This piece of halibut is good enough for Jehovah!”

All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?

**Bear\_Nenno** – you’re right, I was responding to something other than the point of your OP.

From Letterman a couple weeks ago:

I took Mom to see _The Passion_. About halfway through the movie, Mom turns to me and asks “David, when does the ship sink?”

True anecdote:

I was discussing this particular event from the bible with a friend of mine. She was telling me, “and THAT’s when he said, ‘let he who is without sin cast the first stone.’”

I looked at her, and said, “so…he was saying ‘Me first?’”

For some odd reason, we didn’t date too much longer after that.

This beats the one I had:

“Hey, Jesus! Can you shift a little to the left? The signal’s getting weak again.”

Or this one:

“Alright, guys! Enough’s enough. If you don’t let me down, I’m gonna tell my dad!”

Yeah, I’m going to hell. But, after reading this thread, I think I’ll have company.

Imagining **Bear Nenno** at PotC with his date:

“okay, so I kissed her during the flogging - does that mean I go for second base during the scourging?? Hmmm, when to grope, when to grope?”
