I live in an apartment. I live with M. Neither of those things is conducive to ownership of anything larger than Cat 1 and Cat 2.

However, I want him: Ferdinand. I want a pony sized dog I can ride around on, or that the cats can ride around on. Look at him sleep in the flower barrel!!!

Ferdinand (who seems to have happy owners) would be no less trouble than the Chinese baby that I also cannot have. Particularly as M. refuses to raise the Chinese baby. (I find this so hilarious, I cannot even tell you. He... M. reacts to my whims and wishes as if they have any sort of basis in reality, which is one of the reasons I love him, and one of the reasons I fear for his sanity. I would have neither dog nor baby unless I had the room, the financial stability, and the extra set of hands/genes to properly support such an endeavor. But it makes me laugh on a daily basis to see M.'s fear of me coming home and plopping both a giant puppy and an infant down on the couch and saying, "Will you watch these while I have a bath?")

Y'all got many of the obvious quotes, but missed several of what were, to me, equally obvious.



1. Ray. If someone asks if you are a god, you say, "yes!" - Ghostbusters, of course. Dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria.

2. Are you sure it wasn't a girly scream? - X-Files. War of the Corprophages.

3. Lock up the women and hide the fried chicken.- Farscape. Revenging Angel.

4. The new phone book's here! The new phone book's here! - The Jerk.

5. Just another bug hunt. - Aliens.

6. Spies. They're just pissy little girls. - Burn Notice. I love you Bruce Campbell.

7. Oh Stewart. - Y'all have just not watched enough Beavis and Butthead.

8. "O pointy birds, o pointy pointy. Anoint...”- L.A. Story. Seriously, we say this all the time. Usually followed by "o my butt", as was uttered when my friend J. then sat down on a particularly pointy part of Roman wall.

9. I saved Latin. What did you ever do? - Rushmore. Oh Max, you still make me swoon.

10. Did you know that if you mix equal parts of gasoline and frozen orange juice concentrate you can make napalm? - First rule of Fight Club is...

ETA:
Three bonus quotes of supreme easiness.

a. Asps. Very dangerous. You go first. - Raiders!!!
b. It's a weird universe out there, man. You don't know that because you spend all your time indoors! - Farscape, Scratch N' Sniff.
c. C'mon man, I've got a beverage here. (Choosing just one for this particular source is like plucking quotes from Bible, it's just waaaay too much a part of my cultural reality). - And dudes, none of you got this? None of you have seen The Big Lebowski? For serious?


In all fairness, I cannot believe that no one on my flist has quoted the following: "It's not my fault!"

My aunt used to have the most wonderful Great Dane who truly was the size of a small pony and used to eat food from your plate if you left the room, even if you left the plate on the counter. He had a big belling bark and when he ran it really looked like a horse in full gallop.

I shall stick to the horse-sized pony, though. He is enough trouble for three dogs.

The benefit of the pony-sized dog is that they will sleep in the bed with you:) If you can count that as a benefit.

Ferdinand IS awfully cute. Miss Indy and Miss Cassie are not QUITE that big, but they definitely fall into the Pony-sized dog category ;)

But indy would just excavate the flower pot, i fear ;).

Thanks for sharing the cute!

The Burn Notice one is the only one for which I had no excuse (I *knew* it sounded familiar!), as it's the only one I've seen.

Some days I totally fail at cultural awareness. But only on days that end in Y.

Hee - Burn Notice is so new that if they didn't say it in the credits, I wouldn't have posted it even though we say it all the freaking time:)
