“I’m a dancer!” It has to be said properly to get the total effect. And there’s only one person that I know on this board that would get the reference right off the bat, but he lurks too much to post about it. “Yes, but do you know what the specific gravity of milk is?” (Actually, any refernce to the specific gravity of milk will send us off giggling.) When my SO is mad about something, the first thing that any of us do is offer him a tissue. (We watched “The Hurricane”, and when he got weepy, we gave him a box of tissues.) It ticks him off just enough to make him lose his train of thought, and cracks us all up. “I’m going to put Sweet-tarts in my Coke to see what happens.” Usually followed by a resounding “NOOOOooOOoOoOooOOOO!” and maniacal laughter. ---

“Cracker Barrel!!!” “He should’ve been a haberdasher.” “Are you suffering from ennui?” “I feel pretty.” (as sung in West Side Story) “Now Scout.” (as said by Atticus in the famous movie version; we use that one when one of us is being a whiny bitch) “I’ve got that going for me.” (men and their Caddyshack quotes :rolleyes: ) “You should wear something glittery.” “Just bring your portable.” (A few years ago, a fellow teacher at school brought her portable phone from home thinking it would work like a cell phone. We still regularly cackle over that one.) ---

“if this message board was a rag, you could say we were _on the rag_.” | | | | | | | | let me explain… we were playing a board game in which our pieces were required to touch a flag. One of us said “if that flag was a rag, you could say we were _on the rag_” Blank stares ensued. Now, we say that everything could be a rag… Then, later in the evening, he was talking with someone about looking for programmers. His friend say something to the effect of “What types of languages are you looking for”. He replied “I’m good in the sack.” Left field. He wasnt having a very good day 🙂 ---
