"I know something you don't know..."

To which I, of course, said, "What?"

To which he said, "I am not left handed."

I smiled and said. "Ah, I love that movie."

You keep saying that word, I do not think it means what you think it means.

I used to work with a guy named Wesley (but everyone just called him Wes). I would often say "As you wish" when he asked for stuff, but I don't think he ever got the joke.

I think it's rhymes.
quote:
Inigo Montoya: That Vizzini, he can *fuss*.
Fezzik: Fuss, fuss... I think he like to scream at *us*.
Inigo Montoya: Probably he means no *harm*.
Fezzik: He's really very short on *charm*.
Inigo Montoya: You have a great gift for rhyme.
Fezzik: Yes, yes, some of the time.
Vizzini: Enough of that.
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?
Fezzik: If there are, we all be dead.
Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it.
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?
Vizzini: DYEEAAHHHHHH.

It is, in fact, rhymes.

That said, I heartily approve of this thread.

I could-a give you my word as a Spaniard!
No good; I've known too many Spaniards.

Freaks.

On another note, did we ever reach a general concensus as to where Tante's quote comes from? I've found it in Catch-22 . . .
 
Posted by Jim-Me (Member # 6426) on :
 
seriously?

where?

When grading papers this last time, I came across one kid who is either a whiz with a thesaurus or just has the biggest frakking vocabulary I've ever seen/read.

Unfortunately for him, I had to use a quote in my comments:

"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

in Catch-22??? Hmmm, maybe I should try slogging through that again. Still haven't managed to finish that book.

Okay, so I was having a pretty crappy day today, and this thread made me laugh out loud. I love you guys.

Prince Humperdinck: First things first, to the death.
Westley: No. To the pain.
Prince Humperdinck: I don't think I'm quite familiar with that phrase.
Westley: I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon.
