Movie Head

You know your head is stuck inside the world of movies when...

...you relish the opportunity to claim that something will happen "in little less a half a hour".

...you can’t drive into a car wash without muttering to yourself "pretty please, with sugar on top...clean the fuckin’ car" and then giggling about it.

...you attempt to insult someone by calling him/her a "scruffy-looking nerf-herder".

...you fail to remain friends with said persons if their immediate response is not "Who’s scruffy-lookin?"

...you expect people to explain themselves if you ask them "The heck ya mean?!" over and over and over.

...you exclaim disappointment in someone by crying "Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!"

...you cannot help but respond to a question of "What’s in it?" with a musical phrasing of "That’s the point of the thing, not to know!"

...you are unable to fight the impulse, on being told you have said something funny, to get in that person’s face and say "funny how, like I’m a clown? I amuse you?"

...you can’t hear "There is no ‘I’ in team" without then going on about meatpies.

...you shout "It’s not illegal!" when accused of something mildly dishonest.


This is not simply a game of "Name That Quote"; I actually do or say these things, or somehow manage, despite the compulsion, not to. Seriously. I’m not well. But if anyone feels like naming all these movies, knock yourself out. They’re pretty easy.
