MEANWHILE, AT THE WILDEST MOTEL CHAIN IN THE OLD WEST... "We're checkin' in!" "No vacancy!" [BLAM!] "Don't you be giving me no hot lead looks, kid. We're here with the Ugly Sidekicks Convention and I made these reservations weeks ago! Check under 'Scabby'."

MAN: Back, foul beast, or I shall stab thee! FOUL BEAST: Ssssorry, I jusssst wanted to mention that the young lady’sss brasssiere makesss her breassst look like the face of a cartoon duck.

HER: Why don't ya wanna marry me, Fred? HIM: Aw don't take it personal, Molly. I'm jes' lookin for something more in a wife. HER: WHAT more? I got long legs, child-bearing hips, an' I come fully breasted! HIM: True, but I've always been something of a taint man, an' yours is a little below average.

This is true in a way that's still burned deep into my memory and tastebuds. In 96 I drove from NJ to CA. In Bismarck, ND, the "Mexican" restaurant spelled their menu phonetically, e.g. "TACO (Tah-coe)...BURRITO (Boo-REE-toe)". And that was a BIG city!

a 25 year old could not comprehend how bad the dining options were in the median American town in 1996

Todd and Janice awoke from suspended animation in the year 3000 and found humanity extinct and the earth populated by mutant cockroaches and ruled with an iron fist by “Lefty”, the old Hamburger Helper mascot.

The Nurse was Juliet. The Surgeon was Romeo. The Patient was Bob, who waited like six hours for his rhinoplasty before he realized his surgical team were emotionally immature drama queens who poisoned and stabbed themselves the night before and he should probably just reschedule.

HIM: Your armpit electrolysis is healing nicely, Helen, but I must ask you to not smoke in here. HER: Why? It's sexy! HIM: Your roommate Mrs. Maitland went flying through the window when her oxygen tent exploded. They found her two blocks away, confused and smoldering, on the roof of the Food King.

“Shoot it, Jenkins! SHOOT IT!” “No! Ick! I don’t WANNA shoot it!” “Don’t go all pacifist on me NOW, man! It’s got my GUN!” “Yeah but it’s all Jello-y an' stuff! What if it SQUIRTS?!”

DOC: BEHOLD! My PITS! GUARD: AUGH! WTF?? DOC: Aren't you here for the daily pit inspection? GUARD: That's not a thing. DOC: But I shaved! Does not their baby-smooth softness and dewy complexion EXCEED your EXPECTATIONS? GUARD: I actually wasn't expecting your pits. DOC: SURPRISE!

“That’s it, Officer, THAT'S the vagina that attacked me! It REPEATEDLY made cutting remarks about my hairline and golf handicap and now I can’t even walk past the steno pool without it snickering and blowing raspberries!”

HIM: It jus' don't figger. I stopped you from markin' them trees. I kicked over that stone arrow you built showing our path. And I caught you leaving that trail of bread crumbs. So HOW are them fellers still trackin' us? HER: Ooh these cramps... HIM: What? HER: Oh! Uh...Nothing!

As a warrior, Bran Mak Morn was pretty useless. He couldn't ride a horse, his sword was just for show. But he was the one hero you could count on when suffering from occasional irregularity. Many bloated people have cheered his battle cry, "I'm part of this complete breakfast!"

HIM: Excuse me? Miss? HER: What the—? Oh! Uh….Yes? What do you want? HIM: I’m really sorry to bother you, but if it’s not too much trouble could you just reach up there and toss me my bra?

"A Bride's Confession: I murdered my husband (by getting him hooked on unfiltered coffin nails). And it only took 30 years! I was playing the long game & that's what made it the perfect crime. If you're gonna kill somebody, do it the Grecian Formula way--so gradually that people hardly even notice!"

In case you missed it... I saw Digger and I have thoughts.

AIIEEEEE! Holy SHIT, what did I just step on?! Shit shit SHIT, it went right through my fucking foot! Somebody call 9-1-1! Get some Neosporin! Who left this fucking thing in the yard??

NATIVE: What do you think? SAILOR: Well I'm just a Pharmacist's Mate, not a dentist, but yeah that's an abscess. I'd suggest we lance and drain it. HER: What about me? SAILOR: I'm sorry, ma'm. Maybe if we'd caught it earlier... but I'm afraid you have Stage 4 Bette Davis Eyes.
