The sad thing about that movie is that my brother is just like Cousin Eddie. Even my wife says so. She also says that I'm a lot like "Carl," in that I have good intentions, but something always goes wrong.
BTW: I know it's Clark, but did y'all notice how many times the boss called him Carl or some other name?"It's a dog eat dog world out there, and I'm wearing Milk-Bone underwear."- Norm (from Cheers)

"What are you looking at?"
"Oh, the silent majesty of a winter's morn... the clean, cool chill of the holiday air... an a__hole in his bathrobe, emptying a chemical toilet into my sewer..."
"Burn some dust here. Eat my rubber."
"Dad, I think you mean burn rubber and eat my dust. "
"Whatever, Russ. Whatever."David

Clark at the perfume counter:
"Oh, I was just smelling - smiling. I was just blouse - browsing. I, uh, heh heh. Well, I guess it just wouldn't... Oh hee hee, it wouldn't be the Christmas shopping season if the stores were any less hooter than they - HOTTER than they are. Whew. It is warm in here, isn't it?"
"You have your coat on. "
"Yes, oh do I? Yeah, it is a bit nipply out. I mean nippy. What am I saying, nipple? ""It's a dog eat dog world out there, and I'm wearing Milk-Bone underwear."- Norm (from Cheers)

And my favorite one (edited for content) from Clark at the end:
"Where do you think you're going? Nobody's leaving. Nobody's walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas. No, no. We're all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. We're gonna press on, and we're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny ****ing Kaye. And when Santa squeezes his fat white a$$ down that chimney tonight, he's gonna find the jolliest bunch of a**holes this side of the nuthouse.""It's a dog eat dog world out there, and I'm wearing Milk-Bone underwear."- Norm (from Cheers)

LOML have watched that movie so many times, it's rare that a day goes by without using at least one line from that movie--and I mean every day, not just Christmas time. It's the movie that keeps on givin' the whole year through. Usually, it's " I dont KNOOOW, Margo!"
Last week, one of the kids spilled water on the carpet, so naturally it was "Well how did the carpet get wet, Todd?"
I couldn't figure out was srong with the dryer over the summer. I put it all back togehter and tried it once more before I called a pro. I tried it again, and it worked. LOML asked me what happened. I said "It fell into a well and it's eyes went cross. It got kicked in the head, and they went straight. I don't know"
The highlight of my WHOLE YEAR came a few weeks ago. We were discussing Cub Scout popcorn--specifically Choclately Triple Delight (which is awesome, btw, so go buy some...) Anyway, I was telling someone about it. It has chocolate, and the "non-nuclear cereal varnish" coating. I was so proud of myself .JoeComment

I love this one, along with "A Christmas Story" with the kid that wants an air rifle.
I usually watch both 2-3 times every year, while LOML goes shopping or does something else. She hate Chevy Chase, and thinks ACS is silly.
But then she just doesn't "get" the Stooges either!
Oh well.Comment
