America loves a winner!


Walking in the grocery store , I was suddenly struck in my mind w/ a scene from Wonderfalls. No idea what the trigger was, maybe some sort of fruit laden oat bars I saw on the shelf ? Anyway, one of my favorites from Karma Chameleon is when Jaye tells Bianca " Buh...buh...buh bye! "

How rude..making fun of a girl's speech impediment...and so damn funny!

To which I was immediately drawn to another callously funny scene... from Angel, where Lilah, mocking Lindsay w/ his fake hand, cheerfully states " You're not handicapped, you're handi-capable! "


Little moments like that come out of nowhere to lighten up almost any day. Weird or what ?

One of my coworkers is a guy who tends to talk on and on. There's a group for that, which I recommended he join: AndonAndonAnon, for nonstop talkers.

Anyway he was telling me about being in line at the grocery store and talking to the checker about something inane, and how she just kept kind of giving him a blank look and not acknowledging him at all, and all the time he keeps talking.

Finally, she looks at him and, in that unique way deaf people have of saying things, she loudly says "I'M DEAF!" - which shut him right the hell up.

I couldn't help it; I laughed my ass off, and said "I'm gonna have to try that sometime!"

He looked confused, then asked, "You mean you don't think she was really deaf?"

I smiled and walked away, saying "Huh?"



Oh, and I still say "Buh...buh...buh-BYE."

Hey my fav Buffy moment is still when the slightly plump vampire puts on the sweater and says " does this sweater make me look fat" and Spike replies " The fact that you are carrying extra weight makes you look fat, that sweater just makes you look purple"

TRAVELER


I just finished watching Wonderfalls. I go through those episodes almost as often as Firefly.

The great ones always seem to be short lived.

This time it suddenly struck me that Jaye has a knit cap much like Jaynes. I wonder if they are related. afterall Jayne would probably say Buh...Buh...Buh...By. It is in his nature.

I don't care how many times I have watched this show I still laugh at the excellent humor in it.

The Russian woman saying, "I need a bigger Peter," is one of the best lines I have ever heard.

SERENITYSMYSHIP


if you don't mind, i'm going to correct MSB-that quote is incorrect.

actually, it goes more like:

plump (don't know her name):does this sweater make me look fat?

sunday: no, the fact that you're fat makes you look fat. that sweater just makes you look purple.

i don't see anything wrong with being trigger happy-as long as you're around the right people

Not trying to to be rude, label motivated or presumptious Elvischrist, but is the talkative friend you refer to perhaps Aspergic or Autistic? (it's an area I'm well versed in so my curiosity radar goes off when I hear stories like this)
