Offbeat Comments

    Here's a bit of a pop cultute test. I picked this list up from a friend's site. It was so good in my estimation I felt the urge to repeat them here.
    Is that ethical, you ask ?
    I doubt it.
    But, anyway, here they are for your perusal. I myself can only only identify about a half-dozen of the sources of these lines. (There is a visual clue in the form of that great gray-haired Ninja detective from "Police Squad" seen above that will help you crack the identification of at least one line in the list.) If you can get any of the them, please share your answers. Even if, like me, you don't recognize the references, there are some great verbal one-punches nonetheless:

    • "I'm going in the back to make an Old Fashioned." "But what if something goes wrong?" "What could POSSIBLY go wrong with an Old Fashioned?"
    • Hot 'n' hearty 'n' plump as you please
    • Hey, let's all stop playing ego games!
    • Snap it, Frenchy.
    • "Kiss me, Hardy."
    • "Hey! The missing evidence in the Kelner case! My God, he really was innocent!" "He went to the chair two years ago, Frank."
    • "Hold me closer...closer..." "If I stand any closer I'll be in back of you!"
    • "Ipecac or syrup of squill, I don't care."
    • "You use ALL THE GLUE - ON PURPOSE."
    • And they knew not their ass from a hole in the ground.
    • Botch Casually and the Some Dunce Kid
    • Merkle's Boner
    • "Jesus Palomino, a Nazi. I knew it, you're all in cahoots. Well let me tell you something, Mr. Heinie Kraut, I fought your kind in the great war, and we kicked the living shit out of you!"
    • Rumble rumble rumble, mutiny
    • "This boy is Ignorance, this girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy, for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the writing be erased."
    • "There were people sufferin' in pain and hunger. Some people their tongues were hangin' out of their mouths."
    • "You can't fight in here, this is the war room."
    • "What have you done with Dr. Millmoss?"
